For Motion Picture Special Effects, it is often necessary to take a source image of an actor, segment the actor from the unwanted background, and then composite over a new backgro...
Building on recent progress in modeling filter response statistics of natural images we integrate a statistical model into a variational framework for image segmentation. Incorpo...
We present a novel approach for learning patterns (sub-images) shared by multiple images without prior knowledge about the number and the positions of the patterns in the images. ...
—This paper addresses the problem of self-validated labeling of Markov random fields (MRFs), namely to optimize an MRF with unknown number of labels. We present graduated graph c...
Anatomical shapes present a unique problem in terms of accurate representation and medical image segmentation. Three-dimensional (3D) statistical shape models have been extensivel...
