This paper introduces a variational formulation for image denoising based on a quadratic function over kernels of variable bandwidth. These kernels are scale adaptive and reflect ...
The cortex is the outermost thin layer of gray matter in the brain; geometric measurement of the cortex helps in understanding brain anatomy and function. In the quantitative analy...

We present a novel representation for modeling textured regions subject to smooth variations in orientation and scale. Utilizing the steerable pyramid of Simoncelli and Freeman as...
Video segmentation is among the most important challenges of video processing and compression (MPEG-4 and MPEG-7). A drawback of classical methods is the computational cost due to...
A template tracking approach to the segmentation of small 3D vessel structures is presented. The main contributions are a general formulation of a vessel template function and a m...
