Nonuniform Dynamic Discretization in Hybrid Networks
We consider probabilistic inference in general hybrid networks, which include continuous and discrete variables in an arbitrary topology. We reexamine the question of variable dis...

Automated Reconstruction of Dendritic and Axonal Trees by Global Optimization with Geometric Priors
We present a novel probabilistic approach to fully automated delineation of tree structures in noisy 2D images and 3D image stacks. Unlike earlier methods that rely mostly on local...
