In this paper, we extend the statistical model-based Estimation-Quantization (EQ) wavelet image coding algorithm introduced in [?] to include an adaptive transform component. For ...
This paper introduces a novel solver, namely cross entropy (CE), into the MRF theory for medical image segmentation. The solver, which is based on the theory of rare event simulati...
Abstract. A new approach is proposed to estimate the spatial distribution of shear modulus of tissues in-vivo. An image sequence is acquired using a standard medical ultrasound sca...
We present a novel selective blurring algorithm that mimics the optical distance blur effects that occur naturally in cameras and eyes. The proposed algorithm provides a realistic...
In this work we present a new approach to two - dimensional robust spline smoothing. The proposed method is based on M-estimator algorithms but unlike in other M-estimator based i...
