Efficient retrieval of deformable shape classes using local self-similarities by Chatfield, K, Philbin, J, Zisserman, A

“…In order to use the self-similarity descriptor for efficient retrieval we make three contributions: (i) we sparsify the descriptor points by locating discriminative regions within each image, thus reducing the computational expense of shape matching; (ii) we extend to enable matching despite changes in scale; and (iii) we show that vector quantizing the descriptor does not inhibit performance, thus providing the basis of a large-scale shape-based retrieval system using a bag-of-visual-words approach. …”

Learning object categories from internet image searches by Fergus, R, Fei-Fei, L, Perona, P, Zisserman, A

“…The images for a given keyword are typically highly variable, with a large fraction being unrelated to the query term, and thus pose a challenging environment from which to learn. …”

Mappings, dimensionality and reversing out of deep neural networks by Cui, Z, Grindrod, P

“…If the cloud dimension actually increases from one layer to the next it implies there is some &lsquo;volume filling&rsquo;&nbsp;<em>over-folding</em>, and thus there exist possible small directional perturbations in the latter space that are equivalent to shifting large distances within the former space, thus inviting possibility of universal and imperceptible attacks.…”

Finite element modelling of ultrasonic non-destructive testing by Pang, Sze Fei.

“…With planes beingused to their maximum potential, aircraft material easily suffers from wear and tear. There is thus a need to be able to detect early signs of fatigue or defects that, left unchecked, might lead to serious consequences.Non-destructive Testing (NDT) is thus an important part of the aviation industry. …”
