Variational Maximum A Posteriori model similarity and dissimilarity matching
A new variational Maximum A Posteriori (MAP) contextual modeling approach is presented that minimizes the product of two ratios: (a) the ratio of the model distribution to the dis...

Contour-based hidden Markov model to segment 2D ultrasound images
The segmentation of ultrasound images is challenging due to the difficulty of appropriate modeling of their appearance variations including speckle as well as signal dropout. We ...

Bayesian Face Recognition with Deformable Image Models
We propose a novel representation for characterizing image differences using a deformable technique for obtaining pixel-wise correspondences. This representation, which is based o...

Dense Photometric Stereo Using a Mirror Sphere and Graph Cut
We present a surprisingly simple system that allows for robust normal reconstruction by dense photometric stereo, in the presence of severe shadows, highlight, transparencies, com...

Sparse Gaussian graphical models with unknown block structure
Recent work has shown that one can learn the structure of Gaussian Graphical Models by imposing an L1 penalty on the precision matrix, and then using efficient convex optimization...
