— As there are many good optimization algorithms each with its own characteristics, it is very difficult to choose the best method for optimization problems. Thus, it is importa...
Deformable models are by their formulation able to solve surface extraction problem from noisy volumetric image data encountered commonly in medical image analysis. However, this ...
—This paper compares the performance of several structured optimization strategies in adaptive signal processing problems that are characterized by ill-conditioned error surfaces...
We investigate some approaches to solving nonconvex global optimization problems by convex nonlinear programming methods. We assume that the problem becomes convex when selected va...
Abstract. This paper describes a novel approach to recovering a parametric deformation that optimally registers one image to another. The method proceeds by constructing a global c...
