Information extraction can be defined as the task of automatically extracting instances of specified classes or relations from text. We consider the case of using machine learni...
Abstract--An active shape model segmentation scheme is presented that is steered by optimal local features, contrary to normalized first order derivative profiles, as in the origin...

Using the framework of higher-order active contours, we present a new quadratic continuation energy for the extraction of line networks (e.g. road, hydrographic, vascular) in the ...
Markov random field (MRF, CRF) models are popular in
computer vision. However, in order to be computationally
tractable they are limited to incorporate only local interactions
a...
Abstract. Fingerprints are one of the most used biometrics for automatic personal authentication. Unfortunately, it is often difficult to design fingerprint matchers exhibiting th...
