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...
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...
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, ...
In this paper, we consider the problem of keyword query cleaning for structured databases from a probabilistic approach. Keyword query cleaning consists of rewriting the user quer...
Pseudo-relevance feedback is an effective technique for improving retrieval results. Traditional feedback algorithms use a whole feedback document as a unit to extract words for ...
