Distributed Constraint Optimization (DCOP) is a general framework that can model complex problems in multi-agent systems. Several current algorithms that solve general DCOP instan...
Active Shape Model (ASM) is a powerful statistical tool for face alignment by shape. However, it can suffer from changes in illumination and facial expression changes, and local m...

—In this paper, we present a new model for deformations of shapes. A pseudolikelihood is based on the statistical distribution of the gradient vector field of the gray level. The...
In this paper, we propose a Markov random field (MRF) image segmentation model which aims at combining color and texture features. The theoretical framework relies on Bayesian est...
