The wavelet transform has been used for feature extraction in many applications of pattern recognition. However, in general the learning algorithms are not designed taking into acc...
Segmentation of CSF and pulsative blood flow, based on a single phase contrast MRA (PC-MRA) image can lead to imperfect classifications. In this paper, we present a novel automated...

This paper casts the problem of point-set alignment via Procrustes analysis into a maximum likelihood framework using the EM algorithm. The aim is to improve the robustness of the...
The expectation maximization (EM) algorithm is widely used in the Gaussian mixture model (GMM) as the state-of-art statistical modeling technique. Like the classical EM method, th...
