In recent years second-order sufficient conditions of an isolated local minimizer for convex composite optimization problems have been established. In this paper, second-order opt...
Energy functional minimization is a popular technique for medical image segmentation. The segmentation must be initialized, weights for competing terms of an energy functional must...
We show that any point in the convex hull of each of (d +1) sets of (d +1) points in general position in Rd is contained in at least (d + 1)2/2 simplices with one vertex from each ...
Fast level set methods replace continuous PDEs by a discrete formulation, improving the execution times. The regularization in fast level set methods was so far handled indirectly...
Background: Machine-learning tools have gained considerable attention during the last few years for analyzing biological networks for protein function prediction. Kernel methods a...
