This paper introduces a novel solver, namely cross entropy (CE), into the MRF theory for medical image segmentation. The solver, which is based on the theory of rare event simulati...
We study the problem of estimating the epipolar geometry
from apparent contours of smooth curved surfaces
with affine camera models. Since apparent contours are
viewpoint depend...
This paper presents a stochastic iteration algorithm solving the global illumination problem, where the random sampling is governed by classical importance sampling and also by th...
This paper presents a formal framework for designing search algorithms which can identify target images by the spatial distribution of color, edge and texture attributes. The fram...
The 0-1 Multidimensional Knapsack Problem (0-1 MKP) is a wellknown (and strongly NP-hard) combinatorial optimization problem with many applications. Up to now, the majority of upp...
