This paper introduces the Located Hidden Random Field (LHRF), a conditional model for simultaneous part-based detection and segmentation of objects of a given class. Given a traini...
This paper presents Markov random fields (MRFs) to segment strokes of Chinese characters. The distortions caused by the thinning process make the thinning-based stroke segmentatio...
Problem solvers, both human and machine, have at their disposal many heuristics that may support effective search. The efficacy of these heuristics, however, varies with the probl...
We consider a median pyramidal transform for denoising applications. Traditional techniques of pyramidal denoising are similar to those in wavelet-based methods. In order to remove...

Clickthrough data is a particularly inexpensive and plentiful resource to obtain implicit relevance feedback for improving and personalizing search engines. However, it is well kn...
