When deciding the size or the granularity of a batch, one should consider the utilisation constraints imposed on the resources by their respective providers; e.g. the maximum time allowed for task execution and the maximum allowed storage space. In addition, the size of the batc…
The objective of this research is to devise algorithms for video-based face recognition based on spatio-temporal manifolds. The primary focus is to better represent nonlinear face patterns on a data manifold, while incorporating spatio-temporal information that is inherent in vi…
