abstract="Face verification is a key task in many application fields, such as security and surveillance. Several approaches and methodologies are currently used to try to determine if two faces belong to the same person. Among these, facial landmarks are very important in forensics, since the distance between some characteristic points of a face can be used as an objective measure in court during trials. However, the accuracy of the approaches based on facial landmarks in verifying whether a face belongs to a given person or not is often not quite good. Recently, deep learning approaches have been proposed to address the face verification problem, with very good results. In this paper, we compare the accuracy of facial landmarks and deep learning approaches in performing the face verification task. Our experiments, conducted on a real case scenario, show that the deep learning approach greatly outperforms in accuracy the facial landmarks approach.",

abstract="The paper provides an efficient solution to implement a mobile application for food recognition using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). Different CNNs architectures have been trained and tested on two datasets available in literature and the best one in terms of accuracy has been chosen. Since our CNN runs on a mobile phone, efficiency measurements have also taken into account both in terms of memory and computational requirements. The mobile application has been implemented relying on RenderScript and the weights of every layer have been serialized in different files stored in the mobile phone memory. Extensive experiments have been carried out to choose the optimal configuration and tuning parameters.",

abstract="In the realm of metric search, the permutation-based approaches have shown very good performance in indexing and supporting approximate search on large databases. These methods embed the metric objects into a permutation space where candidate results to a given query can be efficiently identified. Typically, to achieve high effectiveness, the permutation-based result set is refined by directly comparing each candidate object to the query one. Therefore, one drawback of these approaches is that the original dataset needs to be stored and then accessed during the refining step. We propose a refining approach based on a metric embedding, called n-Simplex projection, that can be used on metric spaces meeting the n-point property. The n-Simplex projection provides upper- and lower-bounds of the actual distance, derived using the distances between the data objects and a finite set of pivots. We propose to reuse the distances computed for building the data permutations to derive these bounds and we show how to use them to improve the permutation-based results. Our approach is particularly advantageous for all the cases in which the traditional refining step is too costly, e.g. very large dataset or very expensive metric function.",

abstract="The objective of this paper is to demonstrate the reuse of digital content, as video documents or PowerPoint presentations, by exploiting existing technologies for automatic extraction of metadata (OCR, speech recognition, cut detection, MPEG-7 visual descriptors, etc.). The multimedia documents and the extracted metadata are then indexed and managed by the Multimedia Content Management System (MCMS) MILOS, specifically developed to support design and effective implementation of digital library applications. As a result, the indexed digital material can be retrieved by means of content based retrieval on the text extracted and on the MPEG-7 visual descriptors (via similarity search), assisting the user of the e-Learning Library (student or teacher) to retrieve the items not only on the basic bibliographic metadata (title, author, etc.).",
