Energy efficiency is one of the most critical issues in the design of wireless sensor networks. Observing that many sensor applications for object tracking can tolerate a certain d...
Vision tasks, such as segmentation, grouping, recognition, can be formulated as graph partition problems. The recent literature witnessed two popular graph cut algorithms: the Ncu...
The spatial distribution of gray level intensities in an image can be naturally modeled using Markov Random Field (MRF) models. We develop and investigate the performance of face ...
Abstract. We revisit Gaussian Adaptation (GaA), a black-box optimizer for discrete and continuous problems that has been developed in the late 1960’s. This largely neglected sear...
This paper proposes a new approach to describe the salient contours in cluttered scenes. No need to do the preprocessing, such as edge detection, we directly use a set of random s...
