Consumers of resources in realistic applications (e.g., web, multimedia) typically derive diminishing-return utilities from the amount of resource they receive. A resource provide...
Abstract. Level set methods are a popular way to solve the image segmentation problem in computer image analysis. A contour is implicitly represented by the zero level of a signed ...
Abstract. Many computer vision problems such as object segmentation or reconstruction can be formulated in terms of labeling a set of pixels or voxels. In certain scenarios, we may...
We study some stability properties of algorithms which minimize (or almost-minimize) empirical error over Donsker classes of functions. We show that, as the number n of samples gr...
In this paper we eliminate the need for parameter estimation associated with the set covering machine (SCM) by directly minimizing generalization error bounds. Firstly, we consider...
