In this paper a new approach to finding and tracking various land cover boundaries such as rivers, agricultural fields, channels and roads for use in visual navigation system of a...
—We propose a novel image segmentation technique using the robust, adaptive least kth order squares (ALKS) estimator which minimizes the kth order statistics of the squared of re...
The min-sum k-clustering problem is to partition a metric space (P, d) into k clusters C1, . . . , Ck ⊆ P such that k i=1 p,q∈Ci d(p, q) is minimized. We show the first effi...
The conditional phrase translation probabilities constitute the principal components of phrase-based machine translation systems. These probabilities are estimated using a heurist...
Selection procedures are used in a variety of applications to select the best of a finite set of alternatives. ‘Best’ is defined with respect to the largest mean, but the me...
