In this paper we propose a method using a generalization of the weighted majority voting scheme to locate the optic disc (OD) in retinal images automatically. The location with the...
The encoding of shape information is a distinguishing feature of MPEG-4. In error prone communication networks, it is important and efficient to conceal shape errors spatially, so...

We develop two new algorithms for tomographic reconstruction which incorporate the technique of equally-sloped tomography (EST) and allow for the optimized and flexible implementat...

There is a large literature on the rate of convergence problem for general unconstrained stochastic approximations. Typically, one centers the iterate n about the limit point then...
This paper extends the set of problems for which a global solution can be found using modern optimization methods. In particular, the method is applied to estimation of the essent...
