We study graphical modeling in the case of stringvalued random variables. Whereas a weighted finite-state transducer can model the probabilistic relationship between two strings, ...
We present the Higher Order Proxy Neighborhoods (HOPS) approach to modeling higher order neighborhoods in Markov Random Fields (MRFs). HOPS incorporates more context information i...
Abstract. We formulate a robust method using Expectation Maximization (EM) to address the problem of dense photometric stereo. Previous approaches using Markov Random Fields (MRF) ...
This paper proposes to combine spatial and color coherency with the pixel-wise GMM to determine the background model. We first represent each pixel with a hybrid feature vector, w...
Bone mineral density (BMD) measurements and fracture analysis of the spine bones are restricted to the Vertebral bodies (VBs). In this paper, we propose a novel 3D shape based met...
