Stent implantation for coronary disease treatment is a highly important minimally invasive technique that avoids surgery interventions. In order to assure the success of such an i...
An algorithmfor data condensation using support vector machines (SVM's)is presented. The algorithm extracts datapoints lying close to the class boundaries,whichform a much re...
Nowadays, every industry's goal is to improve their manufacturingprocesses and to increase their cadence of production, in order to be competitive. This goal usually implies ...
We consider di usion processes on a class of R trees. The processes are de ned in a manner similar to that of Le Gall's Brownian snake. Each point in the tree has a real value...
In a previous work, we defined a new approach to evaluating directional relations between objects (such as "is to the right of", "is above"...). The approach i...
An improved maximum likelihood estimator for ellipse fitting based on the heteroscedastic errors-in-variables (HEIV) regression algorithm is proposed. The technique significantly ...
The paper presents results of the face verification contest that was organized in conjunction with International Conference on Pattern Recognition 2000 [14]. Participants had to u...

An active contour is used to track a target in a sequence recorded by a walking robot in an unstructured scene . The deformations of the contour are analysed in order to extract t...
Most page segmentation algorithms have userspecifiable free parameters. However, algorithm designers typically do not provide a quantitative/rigorous method for choosing values fo...
