High-dimensional data, such as images represented as points in the space spanned by their pixel values, can often be described in a significantly smaller number of dimensions than...
Gaussian mixture models have been widely used in image segmentation. However, such models are sensitive to outliers. In this paper, we consider a robust model for image segmentati...

Abstract--A new Bayesian model is proposed for image segmentation based upon Gaussian mixture models (GMM) with spatial smoothness constraints. This model exploits the Dirichlet co...

In this paper, we describe an unsupervised segmentation method for contours which proves quite adapted for the images obtained by electronic acquisition. We present two statistica...
The Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm is a popular tool in statistical estimation problems involving incomplete data or in problems which can be posed in a similar form, suc...
