Object Segmentation in Video: A Hierarchical Variational Approach for Turning Point Trajectories into Dense Regions
Point trajectories have emerged as a powerful means to obtain high quality and fully unsupervised segmentation of objects in video shots. They can exploit the long term motion dif...

Diffusions of innovations on deterministic topologies
In this paper, we are interested in modeling diffusion of innovations on social networks. We focus on a scenario where innovation emerges at a small number of nodes in the society...

Sequential Monte Carlo method for parameter estimation in diffusion models of affinity-based biosensors
Estimation of the amounts of target molecules in realtime affinity-based biosensors is studied. The problem is mapped to inferring the parameters of a temporally sampled diffusio...

Forward-and-backward diffusion processes for adaptive image enhancement and denoising
Signal and image enhancement is considered in the context of a new type of diffusion process that simultaneously enhances, sharpens, and denoises images. The nonlinear diffusion co...

Shape from Defocus via Diffusion
Defocus can be modeled as a diffusion process and represented mathematically using the heat equation, where image blur corresponds to the diffusion of heat. This analogy can be ext...

Diffusion Distance for Histogram Comparison
In this paper we propose diffusion distance, a new dissimilarity measure between histogram-based descriptors. We define the difference between two histograms to be a temperature f...
