Efficient segmentation of globally optimal surfaces representing object boundaries in volumetric data sets is important and challenging in many medical image analysis applications....
Abstract. The Mumford-Shah model has been one of the most powerful models in image segmentation and denoising. The optimization of the multiphase Mumford-Shah energy functional has...
Abstract--We propose a novel variation to biogeographybased optimization (BBO), which is an evolutionary algorithm (EA) developed for global optimization. The new algorithm employs...
We present a new approach to iteratively estimate both
high-quality depth map and alpha matte from a single image
or a video sequence. Scene depth, which is invariant
to illumin...
