—Sparse representations have emerged as a powerful tool in signal and information processing, culminated by the success of new acquisition and processing techniques such as Compr...
In this paper we propose an active contour model for segmentation based on the Chan-Vese model. The new model can capture inherent sharp features, i.e., the sharp corners of object...
We describe a characterization the three classical world views of event scheduling, activity scanning, and process interaction and discuss transformations among them. We believe t...
For extracting the characteristics a specific geographic entity, and notably a place, we propose to use dynamic Extreme Tagging Systems in combination with the classic approach of...
The content of an image can be summarized by a set of homogeneous regions in an appropriate feature space. When exact shape is not important, the regions can be represented by sim...
