Abstract. Stochastic finite automata are useful for identifying substrings (chunks) within larger units of text. Relevant applications include tokenization, base-NP chunking, name...
We introduce a novel skeleton extraction algorithm in binary and gray-scale images, based on the anisotropic heat diffusion analogy. We propose to diffuse image in the dominance o...
Segmentation of surgical devices in fluoroscopic images and in particular of guide-wires is a valuable element during surgery. In cardiac angioplasty, the problem is particularly ...
Abstract. The authors propose a new solution to the blind robust watermarking of digital images. In this approach we embed the watermark into the independent components of the imag...
Abstract--This paper presents the development of an unsupervised image segmentation framework (referred to as CTex) that is based on the adaptive inclusion of color and texture in ...
