Parametric Response Surface Models for Analysis of Multi-site fMRI Data
Analyses of fMRI brain data are often based on statistical tests applied to each voxel or use summary statistics within a region of interest (such as mean or peak activation). Thes...

Occlusion tracking using logic models
We present a variational PDE based model for tracking objects under occlusion. Here, prior shape information is used to segment object boundaries that are occluded. The novelty in...
