Minimal-Bracketing Sets for High-Dynamic-Range Image Capture
Abstract--This paper considers the problem of high-dynamicrange (HDR) image capture using low-dynamic-range (LDR) cameras. We present three different minimal-bracketing algorithms ...

Minimization of Region-Scalable Fitting Energy for Image Segmentation
Intensity inhomogeneities often occur in real-world images and may cause considerable difficulties in image segmentation. In order to overcome the difficulties caused by intensity ...

Adaptive Pseudo Dilation for Gestalt Edge Grouping and Contour Detection
We consider the problem of detecting object contours in natural images. In many cases, local luminance changes turn out to be stronger in textured areas than on object contours. Th...

Localizing Region-Based Active Contours
Abstract--In this paper, we propose a natural framework that allows any region-based segmentation energy to be re-formulated in a local way. We consider local rather than global im...

3-D Object Recognition Using 2-D Views
We consider the problem of recognizing 3-D objects from 2-D images using geometric models and assuming different viewing angles and positions. Our goal is to recognize and localize...

A Fast Thresholded Landweber Algorithm for Wavelet-Regularized Multidimensional Deconvolution
We present a fast variational deconvolution algorithm that minimizes a quadratic data term subject to a regularization on the 1 -norm of the wavelet coefficients of the solution. ...

Maximum-Entropy Expectation-Maximization Algorithm for Image Reconstruction and Sensor Field Estimation
Abstract--In this paper, we propose a maximum-entropy expectation-maximization (MEEM) algorithm. We use the proposed algorithm for density estimation. The maximum-entropy constrain...
