Abstract We tackle the problem of detecting occluded regions in a video stream. Under assumptions of Lambertian reflection and static illumination, the task can be posed as a vari...
In this paper, we propose a new shape decomposition method, called convex shape decomposition. We formalize the convex decomposition problem as an integer linear programming probl...
Abstract The problem of finding a global optimum of an unconstrained multimodal function has been the subject of intensive study in recent years, giving rise to valuable advances ...
This paper is devoted to the optimization problem of continuous multipartitioning, or multi-labeling, which is based on a convex relaxation of the continuous Potts model. In contr...
We develop and analyze M-estimation methods for divergence functionals and the likelihood ratios of two probability distributions. Our method is based on a non-asymptotic variatio...
