In this paper, an optimized approximation algorithm (OAA) is proposed to address the overfitting problem in function approximation using neural networks (NNs). The optimized approx...
The structural similarity (SSIM) index has been shown to be an useful tool in a wide variety of applications that involve the assessment of image quality and similarity. However, i...
We consider optimization problems that can be formulated as minimizing the cost of a feasible solution wT x over an arbitrary combinatorial feasible set F {0, 1}n . For these pro...
Abstract--The emerging video coding standard MPEG-4 enables various content-based functionalities for multimedia applications. To support such functionalities, as well as to improv...
This paper is focused on the Co-segmentation problem
[1] – where the objective is to segment a similar object from
a pair of images. The background in the two images may be
