Implicit Mixtures of Restricted Boltzmann Machines
We present a mixture model whose components are Restricted Boltzmann Machines (RBMs). This possibility has not been considered before because computing the partition function of a...

Super-Resolution of Text Images Using Edge-Directed Tangent Field
This paper presents an edge-directed super-resolution algorithm for gray level document images without using any training set. This technique creates an image with smooth regions ...

Semi-Supervised Learning by Mixed Label Propagation
Recent studies have shown that graph-based approaches are effective for semi-supervised learning. The key idea behind many graph-based approaches is to enforce the consistency bet...

Paint By Relaxation
We use relaxation to produce painted imagery from images and video. An energy function is first specified; we then search for a painting with minimal energy. The appeal of this st...

Energy Matting
In this paper, we formulate the image matting as one of solving energy minimization problems. Our approach has the following advantages. First, the matte estimation is modeled usin...

Image-Guided Streamline Placement
Accurate control of streamline density is key to producing several effective forms of visualization of 2-dimensional vector fields. We introduce a technique that uses an energy fu...

A New Algorithm for Energy Minimization with Discontinuities
Many tasks in computer vision involve assigning a label (such as disparity) to every pixel. These tasks can be formulated as energy minimization problems. In this paper, we conside...

Maximum Likelihood Inference of 3D Structure from Image Sequences
The paper presents a new approach to recovering the 3D rigid shape of rigid objects from a 2D image sequence. The method has two distinguishing features: it exploits the rigidity o...

The General Neural-Network Paradigm for Visual Cryptography
This paper proposes the general paradigm to build Q'tron neural networks (NNs) for visual cryptography. Given a visual encryption scheme, usually described using an access st...
