A new hierarchical Bayesian model is proposed for image segmentation based on Gaussian mixture models (GMM) with a prior enforcing spatial smoothness. According to this prior, the...

The segmentation of the heart's left ventricle (LV) chamber in several medical imaging modalities, e.g. Ultrasound (US) and Magnetic Resonance (MRI), is important from a clin...
We present a variational Bayesian framework for performing inference, density estimation and model selection in a special class of graphical models--Hidden Markov Random Fields (H...

In this paper, we demonstrate that multiscale Bayesian image segmentation can be enhanced by improving both contextual modeling and statistical texture characterization. Firstly, ...
Color is very useful in locating and recognizing objects that occur in artificial environments. The color histogram has shown its efficiency and advantages as a general tool for v...
