A novel text extraction method from graphical document images is presented in this paper. Graphical document images containing text and graphics components are considered as two-d...
We propose an information-theoretic method for multi-phase image segmentation, in an active contour-based framework. Our approach is based on nonparametric density estimates, and ...

Segmentation involves separating an object from the background. In this work, we propose a novel segmentation method combining image information with prior shape knowledge, within...

We present a new algorithm for topological feature mapping. It is compared to other known feature mapping algorithmslike that proposed by Kohonen or Bertsch. The main difference t...
In this paper, we present a novel localized Markov random field (MRF) method based on superpixels for region segmentation. Early vision problems could be formulated as pixel label...
