Minimum cuts, extremum spanning forests and watersheds have been used as the basis for powerful image segmentation procedures. In this paper, we present some results about the lin...
In this paper, we propose an approach for the separation of overlapping and touching lines within handwritten Arabic documents. Our approach is based on the morphology analysis of ...
This paper summarizes recent work at Microsoft on the development of novel direct models. The key characteristic of our approaches is the use of long-span segment level features t...
In most approaches to speech recognition, the speech signals are segmented using constant-time segmentation, for example into 25 ms blocks. Constant segmentation risks losing info...
This paper describes a novel Bayesian approach to unsupervised topic segmentation. Unsupervised systems for this task are driven by lexical cohesion: the tendency of wellformed se...
