We apply the dead-end elimination (DEE) strategy from protein design as a heuristic for the max-flow/min-cut formulation of the image segmentation problem. DEE combines aspects of...
We present a novel approach to detect multiscale keypoints using the Dual Tree Complex Wavelet Transform (DTCWT). We show that it is a well-suited basis for this problem as it is ...
Gaussian filtering in one, two or three dimensions is among the most commonly needed tasks in signal and image processing. Finite impulse response filters in the time domain with ...
This paper proposes a novel region-based scheme for dynamically modeling time-evolving statistics of video background, leading to an effective segmentation of foreground moving ob...

We present a locallY adaptivE Non-lInear (YENI) filter to obtain the unsharp mask of an image. The unsharp mask obtained by the YENI filter preserves the edges in the image while ...
This paper describes a hierarchical Bayesian network used for segmenting desert images and detecting off road drivable corridors for autonomous navigation. Unlike the embedded hid...
This paper presents a statistical learning-based solution to the camera calibration problem in which the Support Vector Machines (SVM) are used for the estimation of the projectio...

For the first time, we present an AM-FM image model that, in addition to being remarkably consistent with human visual perception, also provides perfect reconstruction of the imag...
