We investigate a new, convex relaxation of an expectation-maximization (EM) variant that approximates a standard objective while eliminating local minima. First, a cautionary resu...
Due to the presence of speckle, segmentation of SAR images is generally acknowledged as a difficult problem. A large effort has been done in order to cope with the influence of sp...
We present an analysis of the spatial covariance structure of an articulated motion prior in which joint angles have a known covariance structure. From this, a well-known, but ofte...
Tiled architectures can provide a model for early estimation of global interconnect costs. A design exploration tool for reconfigurable architectures is currently under developmen...

In this paper, we present a novel approach to robust skeleton extraction. We use undirected graphs to model connectivity of the skeleton points. The graph topology remains unchang...
