Skin-Color Modeling and Adaptation
Abstract. This paper studies a statistical skin-color model and its adaptation. It is revealed that 1 human skin colors cluster in a small region in a color space; 2 the variance o...

Joint MRI Bias Removal Using Entropy Minimization Across Images
The correction of bias in magnetic resonance images is an important problem in medical image processing. Most previous approaches have used a maximum likelihood method to increase...

Generalization from Observed to Unobserved Features by Clustering
We argue that when objects are characterized by many attributes, clustering them on the basis of a random subset of these attributes can capture information on the unobserved attr...
