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...
Sign language is used for communicating to people with hearing difficulties. Recogntion of a sign language image sequence is challenging because of the variety of hand shapes and ...
We present a document-specific OCR system and apply it to a corpus of faxed business letters. Unsupervised classification of the segmented character bitmaps on each page, using a ...
In many applications, replacing a complex word form by its stem can reduce sparsity, revealing connections in the data that would not otherwise be apparent. In this paper, we focu...

In the context of an experimental virtual-reality surgical planning software platform, we propose a fully self-assessed adaptive region growing segmentation algorithm. Our method s...
