Algebraic Curve Fitting Support Vector Machines
An algebraic curve is defined as the zero set of a multivariate polynomial. We consider the problem of fitting an algebraic curve to a set of vectors given an additional set of v...

Maximum-Likelihood Circle-Parameter Estimation via Convolution
In this paper, we present an interpretation of the Maximum Likelihood Estimator (MLE) and the Delogne-K˚asa Estimator (DKE) for circle-parameter estimation via convolution. Under ...

False-Peaks-Avoiding Mean Shift Method for Unsupervised Peak-Valley Sliding Image Segmentation
The mean shift (MS) algorithm is sensitive to local peaks. In this paper, we show both empirically and analytically that when using sample data, the reconstructed PDF may have fals...
