Abstract. Figure/ground assignment is a key step in perceptual organization which assigns contours to one of the two abutting regions, providing information about occlusion and all...
This paper introduces an novel framework for speech understanding using extended context-free grammars (ECFGs) by combining statistical methods and rule based knowledge. By only us...
Bottom-up segmentation methods merge similar neighboring regions according to a decision rule and a merging order. In this paper, we propose a contribution for each of these two po...
