We present a method to approximate (in any space dimension) diffusion equations with schemes having a specific structure; this structure ensures that the discrete local maximum a...
In this paper, both non-mixing and mixing local minima of the entropy are analyzed from the viewpoint of blind source separation (BSS); they correspond respectively to acceptable a...
A normalized, power-weighted averaging filter (NPF) is a very good approximation to the well-know local maximum and minimum filters along the object edges and offers noise reducti...
In this paper a completely automatic face recognition system is presented. The system is inspired by the elastic bunch graph method, but the fiducial point localization is complet...
Given a metric space (X, dX), c ≥ 1, r > 0, and p, q ∈ [0, 1], a distribution over mappings H : X → N is called a (r, cr, p, q)-sensitive hash family if any two points in...
