Pattern Recognition Theory
Speed-Up Template Matching Through Integral Image Based Weak Classifiers 1-12
Tirui Wu, Alexander Toet
Template matching is a widely used pattern recognition method, especially in industrial inspection. However, the computational costs of traditional template matching increase dramatically with both template-and scene imagesize.

Minimum Manifold-Based Within-Class Scatter Support Vector Machine 79-89
Zhongbao Liu, Songnian Pei, Yongzhi Hao
Although Support Vector Machine (SVM) is widely used in practice, it only takes the boundary information between classes into consideration while neglects the data distribution, which seriously limits the classification efficiency.

Randomized Algorithm for Approximate Nearest Neighbor Search in High Dimensions 111-122
Ruben Buaba, Abdollah Homaifar, William Hendrix, Seung Woo Son, Wei-keng Liao, Alok Choudhary
A randomized algorithm employs a degree of randomness as part of its logic with uniform random bits as an auxiliary input to guide its behavior, in the hope of achieving good average runtime performance over all possible choices of the random bits.

Techniques in Pattern Recognition for School Bullying Prevention: Review and Outlook 50-63
Liang Ye, Hany Ferdinando, Esko Alasaarela
School bullying is a serious problem among teenagers. With the development of sensor technology and pattern recognition algorithms, several approaches for detecting school bullying have been developed, namely speech emotion recognition, mental stress recog- nition, and activity recognition.
