We present a nonparametric method for galaxy clustering in astronomical sky surveys. We show that the cosmological definition of clusters of galaxies is equivalent to density cont...
This paper describes a variational method with active curve evolution and level sets for the estimation, segmentation, and 3D interpretation of optical flow generated by independe...
