Many self-organizing and self-adaptive systems use the biologically inspired “gradient” primitive, in which each device in a network estimates its distance to the closest devi...

— When a network of robots or static sensors is emplaced in an environment, the spatial relationships between the sensing units must be inferred or computed for most key applicat...
We propose a novel approach for finding text in images by using ridges at several scales. A text string is modelled by a ridge at a coarse scale representing its center line and n...
We present a system known as Med-LIFE (Medical application of Learning, Image Fusion, and Exploration) currently under development for medical image analysis. This pipelined syste...
Suppose a given observation matrix can be decomposed as the sum of a low-rank matrix and a sparse matrix (outliers), and the goal is to recover these individual components from th...
