One of the most important tasks in medical image analysis is to detect the absence or presence of disease in an image, without having precise delineations of pathology available f...
We developed a binarization approach to handle a large variety of images, from scanned flatbed images to images acquired by mobile phone cameras. The binarization is targeted at c...
In this paper, we present a new method to obtain the contours of color faces. First, we introduce a new nonlinear skin classifier to detect the human skin information in images. T...
We frame the problem of object recognition from edge cues in terms of determining whether individual edge pixels belong to the target object or to clutter, based on the configurat...
This paper considers a technique for composing global (barrier-style) and local (channel scanning) synchronization protocols within a single parallel discrete-event simulation. Com...
