The Fourier phase spectrum of an image is well known to contain crucial information about the image geometry, in particular its contours. In this paper, we show that it is also st...
This paper develops a variant of Simulated Annealing (SA) algorithm for solving discrete stochastic optimization problems where the objective function is stochastic and can be eva...
Extended Abstract: We are exploring new techniques for active contour models (popularly known as “snakes”[1]) by combining active segmentation models with the constrained impli...
The nonlinear stability of travelling Lax shocks in semidiscrete conservation laws involving general spatial forward-backward discretization schemes is considered. It is shown tha...
Min-max functions are dynamic programming operators of zero-sum deterministic games with finite state and action spaces. The problem of computing the linear growth rate of the or...
