We propose a region-based method to extract semantic foreground regions from color video sequences with static backgrounds. First, we introduce a new distance measure for backgrou...
A concurrent object is an object that can be concurrently accessed by several processes. Sequential consistency is a consistency criterion for such objects. Informally, it states ...
We introduce a novel statistical deformable model called SAMTUS for the segmentation of soft tissue tubular structures. The model is composed of an assembly of statistically defor...
To efficiently compress rasterized compound documents, an encoder must be content-adaptive. Content adaptivity may be achieved by using a layered approach. In such an approach, a ...

In this paper, we present a novel approach to vectorize elliptic arcs for 3D pie chart recognition and data extraction. As a preprocessing step, a set of straight line segments ar...
