A Variational Shape Optimization Approach for Image Segmentation with a Mumford--Shah Functional
We introduce a novel computational method for a Mumford-Shah functional, which decomposes a given image into smooth regions separated by closed curves. Casting this as a shape opti...

A jointly optimal fractal/DCT compression scheme
In this paper a hybrid fractal and Discrete Cosine transform (DCT) coder is developed. Drawing on the ability of DCT to remove inter-pixel redundancies and on the ability of fracta...

A Sampling-Based Approach to Optimizing Top-k Queries in Sensor Networks
Wireless sensor networks generate a vast amount of data. This data, however, must be sparingly extracted to conserve energy, usually the most precious resource in battery-powered ...
