—In this paper, we introduce a novel method to solve shape alignment problems. We use gray-scale “images” to represent source shapes, and propose a novel two-component Gaussi...
Automatic grouping and segmentation of images remains a challenging problem in computer vision. Recently, a number of authors have demonstrated good performance on this task using...
Winner-Takes-All (WTA) prescriptions for Learning Vector Quantization (LVQ) are studied in the framework of a model situation: Two competing prototype vectors are updated accordin...
— Since the Estimation of Distribution Algorithms (EDAs) have been introduced, several single model based EDAs and mixture model based EDAs have been developed. Take Gaussian mod...
Automatic image annotation is a promising solution to enable semantic image retrieval via keywords. In this paper, we propose a multi-level approach to annotate the semantics of n...
