We propose a method for interactive colour image segmentation. The goal is to detect an object from the background, when some markers on object(s) and the background are given. As...
This paper proposes the incremental Bayesian optimization algorithm (iBOA), which modifies standard BOA by removing the population of solutions and using incremental updates of t...
Volunteer Computing is becoming a new paradigm not only for the Computational Grid, but also for institutions using production-level Data Grids because of the enormous storage pot...
