Abstract. Recent human vision research [1] suggests modelling preattentive texture segmentation by taking a set of feature samples from a local region on each side of a hypothesize...
In this paper we introduce a constrained Level Building Algorithm (LBA) in order to reduce the search space of a Large Vocabulary Handwritten Word Recognition (LVHWR) system. A ti...

Many statistical M-estimators are based on convex optimization problems formed by the weighted sum of a loss function with a norm-based regularizer. We analyze the convergence rat...
