Spatial Motion Constraints for Robot Assisted Suturing Using Virtual Fixtures
We address the problem of the stitching task in endoscopic surgery using a circular needle under robotic assistance. Our main focus is to present an algorithm for suturing using gu...

Correlation estimation for distributed source coding under information exchange constraints
Distributed source coding (DSC) depends strongly on accurate knowledge of correlation between sources. Previous works have reported capacity-approaching code constructions when ex...

MR Brain Tissue Classification Using an Edge-Preserving Spatially Variant Bayesian Mixture Model
In this paper, a spatially constrained mixture model for the segmentation of MR brain images is presented. The novelty of this work is a new, edge preserving, smoothness prior whic...

A Generic Variational Approach For Demosaicking From An Arbitrary Color Filter Array
We propose a method to demosaick images acquired with a completely arbitrary color filter array (CFA). We adopt a variational approach where the reconstructed image has maximal sm...

Warp that smile on your face: Optimal and smooth deformations for face recognition
— In this work, we present novel warping algorithms for full 2D pixel-grid deformations for face recognition. Due to high variation in face appearance, face recognition is consid...
