Automatic road extraction is a critical feature for an efficient use of remote sensing imagery in most contexts. This paper proposes a robust geometric method to provide a first...
In this paper, we formulate the utility functions of distortion and Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR) which are generally used for the performance evaluation of video coding appli...
We introduce a method to improve performance of multiple-description coding based on legacy video coders with pre- and postprocessing. The pre- and post-processing setup is genera...
This paper addresses the issues of nonlinear edge-preserving image smoothing and segmentation. A ML-based approach is proposed which uses an iterative algorithm to solve the probl...
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an optical ranging technique analogous to radar — detection of back-scattered light produces a signal that is temporally localized at times...

This paper presents a new statistical image segmentation algorithm, in which the texture features are modeled by Symmetric Alpha-Stable (SαS) distributions. These features are ef...
The Asynchronous Hidden Markov Model (AHMM) models the joint likelihood of two observation sequences, even if the streams are not synchronised. We explain this concept and how the...

The selection of an optical flow method is mostly a choice from among accuracy, efficiency and ease of implementation. While variational approaches tend to be more accurate than lo...

Abstract. We present a method for tracking people in monocular broadcast sports videos by coupling a particle filter with a vote-based confidence map of athletes, appearance featur...
Content-based image retrieval requires a natural image (e.g, a photo) as query, but the absence of such a query image is usually the reason for a search. An easy way to express the...
