Global Minimization for Continuous Multiphase Partitioning Problems Using a Dual Approach
This paper is devoted to the optimization problem of continuous multipartitioning, or multi-labeling, which is based on a convex relaxation of the continuous Potts model. In contr...

On optimal quantization rules for some sequential decision problems
We consider the problem of sequential decentralized detection, a problem that entails several interdependent choices: the choice of a stopping rule (specifying the sample size), a...

Topology cuts: A novel min-cut/max-flow algorithm for topology preserving segmentation in N-D images
Topology is an important prior in many image segmentation tasks. In this paper, we design and implement a novel graph-based min-cut/max-flow algorithm that incorporates topology p...
