A no-reference Blocking Artifacts Visibility Estimator in images
In this paper, we present a new low-complexity no-reference metric that assesses the visibility of blocking artifacts in DCT-coded images. The metric works in the spatial domain a...

Gradient steepness metrics using extended Baum-Welch transformations for universal pattern recognition tasks
In many pattern recognition tasks, given some input data and a family of models, the “best” model is defined as the one which maximizes the likelihood of the data given the m...

Law of the Iterated Logarithm for a Constant-Gain Linear Stochastic Gradient Algorithm
We study almost-sure limiting properties, taken as 0, of the finite horizon sequence of random estimates { 0, 1, 2, . . . , T/ } for the linear stochastic gradient algorithm n+1 ...

Head Tracking Using Particle Filter with Intensity Gradient and Color Histogram
This paper presents a method for tracking human head using a particle filter to naturally integrate two complementary cues: intensity gradient and color histogram. The shape of th...
