We present a model for the lips using the Active Shape Model (ASM) based on B?ezier Curves which can capture the dynamics of the lips efficiently. The curves are defined only by a...
We propose a new variational method to restore point-like and curvelike singularities in 2-D images. As points and open curves are fine structures, they are difficult to restore...
Hidden Markov models (HMMs) have received considerable attention in various communities (e.g, speech recognition, neurology and bioinformatic) since many applications that use HMM...
We study a sequential variance reduction technique for Monte Carlo estimation of functionals in Markov Chains. The method is based on designing sequential control variates using s...
—Recent developments in statistical theory and associated computational techniques have opened new avenues for image modeling as well as for image segmentation techniques. Thus, ...
