This paper introduces multi-scale tree-based approaches to image segmentation, using Rissanen's coding theoretic minimum description length (MDL) principle to penalize overly...
A new approach to align an image of a textured object with a given prototype is proposed. Visual appearance of the images, after equalizing their signals, is modeled with a Markov...

In this paper we propose a new method that addresses the problem of tracking the bitmap (silhouette) of an object in a video under very general conditions. We assume a general tar...
In this paper, we study Markov Random Fields as spatial smoothing priors in fMRI detection. Relatively high noise in fMRI images presents a serious challenge for the detection algo...
We present a novel Bayesian approach to the problem of value function estimation in continuous state spaces. We define a probabilistic generative model for the value function by i...
