The Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm is a popular tool in statistical estimation problems involving incomplete data or in problems which can be posed in a similar form, suc...
— Ultrasound images segmentation is a difficult problem due to speckle noise, low contrast and local changes of intensity. Intensity based methods do not perform particularly we...

This paper introduces a novel statistical mixture model for probabilistic grouping of distributional histogram data. Adopting the Bayesian framework, we propose to perform anneale...
A quadratic programming formulation for multiclass image segmentation is investigated. It is proved that, in the convex case, the non-negativity constraint on the recent reported ...
