Robust Image Segmentation with Mixtures of Student's t-Distributions
Gaussian mixture models have been widely used in image segmentation. However, such models are sensitive to outliers. In this paper, we consider a robust model for image segmentati...

Stability analysis of complex maximum likelihood ica using Wirtinger calculus
The desirable asymptotic optimality properties of the maximum likelihood (ML) estimator make it an attractive solution for performing independent component analysis (ICA) as well....

Prefiltered Gaussian Reconstruction for High-Quality Rendering of Volumetric Data sampled on a Body-Centered Cubic Grid
In this paper a novel high-quality reconstruction scheme is presented. Although our method is mainly proposed to reconstruct volumetric data sampled on an optimal Body-Centered Cu...

Informed operators: Speeding up genetic-algorithm-based design optimization using reduced models
In this paper we describe a method for improving genetic-algorithm-based optimization using informed genetic operators. The idea is to make the genetic operators such as mutation ...
