Bayes Optimality in Linear Discriminant Analysis
We present an algorithm which provides the one-dimensional subspace where the Bayes error is minimized for the C class problem with homoscedastic Gaussian distributions. Our main ...

Theoretical Foundations of Spatially-Variant Mathematical Morphology Part II: Gray-Level Images
In this paper, we develop a spatially-variant (SV) mathematical morphology theory for gray-level signals and images in the euclidean space. The proposed theory preserves the geomet...

Globally Optimal Grouping for Symmetric Closed Boundaries by Combining Boundary and Region Information
Many natural and man-made structures have a boundary that shows a certain level of bilateral symmetry, a property that plays an important role in both human and computer vision. In...

A Fast Algorithm for Learning a Ranking Function from Large-Scale Data Sets
We consider the problem of learning a ranking function that maximizes a generalization of the Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney statistic on the training data. Relying on an -accurate approxim...

Robust Radiometric Calibration and Vignetting Correction
In many computer vision systems, it is assumed that the image brightness of a point directly reflects the scene radiance of the point. However, the assumption does not hold in mos...

Nonrigid Structure-from-Motion: Estimating Shape and Motion with Hierarchical Priors
This paper describes methods for recovering time-varying shape and motion of nonrigid 3D objects from uncalibrated 2D point tracks. For example, given a video recording of a talkin...
