摘要： A method of classifying a set of semantic concepts on a second multimedia collection based upon adapting a set of semantic concept classifiers and updating concept affinity relations that were developed to classify the set of semantic concepts for a first multimedia collection. The method comprises providing the second multimedia collection from a different domain and a processor automatically classifying the semantic concepts from the second multimedia collection by adapting the semantic concept classifiers and updating the concept affinity relations to the second multimedia collection based upon the local smoothness over the concept affinity relations and the local smoothness over data affinity relations.

摘要： In methods and systems for classifying capture records, such as images. A collection of capture records is provided. Each capture record has metadata defining a map location. This metadata can be earlier determined from a stream of data transmissions, even if there are gaps in transmission. The provided capture records are clustered into groups based on capture locations. A map, inclusive of the capture locations, is segmented into a plurality of regions based on relative positions of the capture locations associated with each group. The regions are associated with the capture records of respective groups.

摘要： In an image classification method, a plurality of grouping values are received. The grouping values each have an associated image. An average of the grouping values is calculated. A variance metric of the grouping values, relative to the average is computed. A grouping threshold is determined from the variance metric. Grouping values beyond the grouping threshold are identified as group boundaries. The images are assigned to a plurality of groups based upon the group boundaries.
