— In this paper, a family of low-density parity-check (LDPC) degree distributions, whose decoding threshold on the binary erasure channel (BEC) admits a simple closed form, is pr...
Abstract. Many combinatorial optimization problems can be formulated as 0/1 integer programs (0/1 IPs). The investigation of the structure of these problems raises the following ta...
Methods for automatic detection of left ventricular endocardium in echocardiograms are required to quantitatively evaluate the functional performance of the left ventricle. This s...
This paper presents a document image thresholding technique that binarizes badly illuminated document images by the photometric correction. Based on the observation that illuminat...
