A Bayesian Approach to Digital Matting
This paper proposes a new Bayesian framework for solving the matting problem, i.e. extracting a foreground element from a background image by estimating an opacity for each pixel ...

Efficient Sampling for Gaussian Process Inference using Control Variables
Sampling functions in Gaussian process (GP) models is challenging because of the highly correlated posterior distribution. We describe an efficient Markov chain Monte Carlo algori...
