Monte Carlo methods and their subsequent simulated annealing are able to minimize general energy functions. However, the slow convergence of simulated annealing compared with more ...
Abstract. This paper presents a Bayesian inference algorithm for image layer representation [26], 2.1D sketch [6], with mixed Markov random field. 2.1D sketch is an very important...
We propose a novel formulation of stereo matching that considers each pixel as a feature vector. Under this view, matching two or more images can be cast as matching point clouds i...
For video summarization and retrieval, one of the important modules is to group temporal-spatial coherent shots into high-level semantic video clips namely scene segmentation. In ...

We consider the problem of segmenting a webpage into visually and semantically cohesive pieces. Our approach is based on formulating an appropriate optimization problem on weighte...
