Title: Recent Development of Bag-of-feature Model in Visual Recognition

In the past several years, the Bag-of-feature model has achieved great success in visual recognition and become the state of the art. It has attracted intensive attention of researchers from different fields including computer vision, multimedia, and machine learning. Many new methods and approaches have been proposed, contributing to different components of this model. This tutorial covers the fundamentals and the recent development of the Bag-of-feature model in visual recognition. In particular, it focuses on the three key components: codebook generation, coding scheme, and pooling method…

China Scholarship Council (CSC) – UOW Joint Postgraduate Scholarships Program

The China Scholarship Council (CSC) and the University of Wollongong (UOW) are jointly offering postgraduate research scholarships to students from the People’s Republic of China who intend to undertake a postgraduate research degree at the University of Wollongong. UOW will provide an International Postgraduate Tuition Award (IPTA) to each student selected under this program.  This IPTA will pay the full tuition fees.

UOW may also accept students from Chinese University partner institutions for visiting research training programs whereby CSC students will be enrolled at the Chinese institution but will spend a component of their degree at UOW.
