—In this paper, a novel Chinese character localization method is proposed for texts in advertising images. To deal with the texts with gradient color, a color clustering method b...
This paper presents an approach to combine competent crossover and mutation operators via probabilistic model building. Both operators are based on the probabilistic model buildin...
This survey is concerned with the size of perfect formulations for combinatorial optimization problems. By "perfect formulation", we mean a system of linear inequalities...
An asynchronous stochastic approximation based (Frequentist) approach is proposed for mapping using noisy mobile sensors under two different scenarios: 1) perfectly known sensor ...
Image matting is the task of estimating a fore- and background
layer from a single image. To solve this ill posed
problem, an accurate modeling of the scene’s appearance
is ne...
