Variational Segmentation using Fuzzy Region Competition and Local Non-Parametric Probability Density Functions
We describe a novel variational segmentation algorithm designed to split an image in two regions based on their intensity distributions. A functional is proposed to integrate the ...

New developments of the Z-EDM algorithm
In this paper we address some open questions on the recently proposed Zero-Error Density Maximization algorithm for MLP training. We propose a new version of the cost function tha...

Quantizing Density Estimators
We suggest a nonparametric framework for unsupervised learning of projection models in terms of density estimation on quantized sample spaces. The objective is not to optimally re...

Density Estimation under Independent Similarly Distributed Sampling Assumptions
A method is proposed for semiparametric estimation where parametric and nonparametric criteria are exploited in density estimation and unsupervised learning. This is accomplished ...

New EM derived from Kullback-Leibler divergence
We introduce a new EM framework in which it is possible not only to optimize the model parameters but also the number of model components. A key feature of our approach is that we...
