Traditional snakes, or active contours, are planar parametric curves. Their parameters are determined by optimizing the weighted sum of three energy terms: one depending on the dat...
The mean-shift algorithm, based on ideas proposed by Fukunaga and Hostetler (1975), is a hill-climbing algorithm on the density defined by a finite mixture or a kernel density e...
The Jaccard/Tanimoto coefficient is an important workload, used in a large variety of problems including drug design fingerprinting, clustering analysis, similarity web searching a...

This paper presents an improvement of the classical Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) approach, for dealing with local representations of image objects. NMF, when applied to...
In this paper, we present a new approach for remote visualization of large 3D cities. Our approach is based on expressive rendering (also known as Non-Photorealistic Rendering), a...
