We consider existence of curves c : [0, 1] Rn which minimize an energy of the form c(k) p (k = 1, 2, . . . , 1 < p < ) under side-conditions of the form Gj(c(t1,j), . . . ,...
Abstract—We study network optimization that considers energy minimization as an objective. Studies have shown that mechanisms such as speed scaling can significantly reduce the ...
A novel scheme for the detection of object boundaries is presented. The technique is based on active contours evolving in time according to intrinsic geometric measures of the imag...
Foreground segmentation is one of the most challenging problems in computer vision. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm for static camera foreground segmentation. It combine...
Visual tracking using active contours is usually accomplished in a static framework. The active contour tracks the object of interest in a given frame of an image sequence, and th...
