Class Representation and Image Retrieval with Non-Metric Distances

How researchers see this paper

The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

CrossTransformers: spatially-aware few-shot transfer (2020, background): “The classical example of this is the centaur that appeared in several early papers on visual representation [12, 40, 87], where the parts from the human and horse composed the centaur.”
Efficient mean-shift tracking via a new similarity measure (2005, background): “Often distance functions that are robust to outliers or to noise disobey the triangle inequality [26].”
Partial Similarity of Objects, or How to Compare a Centaur to a Horse (2009, background): “Figure 1 (inspired by Jacobs et al. 2000; see also Veltkamp 2001; Latecki et al. 2005) shows a centaur—a half-equine half-human mythological creature.”
