Bag of textons for image segmentation via soft clustering and convex shift
We propose an unsupervised image segmentation method based on texton similarity and mode seeking. The input image is first convolved with a filter-bank, followed by soft cluster...

On the MSE robustness of batching estimators
Variance is a classical measure of a point estimator's sampling error. In steady-state simulation experiments, many estimators of this variance--or its square root, the stand...

Constrained Optimization for Retinal Curvature Estimation Using an Affine Camera
We study retinal curvature estimation from multiple images that provides the fundamental geometry of human retina. We use an affine camera model due to its simplicity, linearity, ...
