I spent about five minutes googling around and didn't notice any
description of the algorithm used to defined google sets.  I assume it is
done by finding things that occur either together or singularly in the
same context.

Does anybody know or having any links to how google sets are defined?

Subject: [agi] Using Google Sets for "common sense" in computer vision


I came across a paper the other day by Serge Belongie's group at UCSD
which has a simple, yet clever, solution of how to incorporate "common
sense" information about what objects belong in a scene to improve
computer vision algorithms. Basically, if you have an idea of some of the
objects detected in a scene, you can use Google Sets to increase the
probability of detecting related objects. For example, it's easier to
determining if an object is a lemon or a tennis ball if you're also
detecting a tennis racket and person in the same image.

The research is still quite early, but could Google Sets also be useful
for more general AI tasks?
