We consider the problem of optimizing the parameters of an arbitrary denoising algorithm by minimizing Stein’s Unbiased Risk Estimate (SURE) which provides a means of assessing ...
In this paper a region-based color image indexing and retrieval algorithm is presented. As a basis for the indexing, a novel K-Means segmentation algorithm is used, modified so as...

This paper proposes an algorithm for recognizing Chinese characters in many diverse fonts including Song, Fang, Kai, Hei, Yuan, Lishu, Weibei, and Xingkai. The algorithm is based ...
We present a new bio-inspired approach applied to a problem of stereo image matching. This approach is based on an artificial epidemic process, which we call the infection algorith...
In contrast to a large body of theoretical work on computer systems, distributed systems are not idealised constructions, unconstrained by physical world limitations. They must be...
