In this paper we describe a new approach for the multitrack initiation problem. We propose an extensive use of the top-view reconstruction of the scene to solve the detection step in tracking pedestrians. We leave a large set of starting hypothetical movin ...
This paper presents a fingerprinting method based on equivalence classes. An equivalence class is composed of a reference image and all its variations (or replicas). For each reference image, a decision function is built. The latter determines if a given i ...
We introduce an extended class of cardinal LL-splines, where L is a pseudo-differential operator satisfying some admissibility conditions. We show that the LL-spline signal interpolation problem is well posed and that its solution is the unique minimizer ...
Statistical Parametric Mapping (SPM) is a widely deployed tool for detecting and analyzing brain activity from fMRI data. One of SPM's main features is smoothing the data by a Gaussian filter to increase the SNR. The subsequent statistical inference is bas ...
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a recent, non-invasive technique that allows the measurement of brain metabolism while a subject is performing specific motor or cognitive tasks. The practical difficulty is that the signal changes are very s ...
In this paper, we present different solutions for improving spline-based snakes. First, we demonstrate their minimum curvature interpolation property, and use it as an argument to get rid of the explicit smoothness constraint. We also propose a new externa ...
We present a new scalable architecture for the realization of fully programmable rank order filters (ROF). Capacitive Threshold Logic (CTL) gates are utilized for the implementation of the multi-input programmable majority (voting) functions required in th ...
We propose to design the reduction operator of an image pyramid so as to minimize the approximation error in the lp sense (not restricted to the usual p = 2), where p can take non-integer values. The underlying image model is specified using arbi ...
In this thesis, four topics related to image analysis are investigated: filtering, color segmentation, contour detection, and symmetry quantification for shape, color, and texture information. The three first topics are essential to detect efficiently the ...
Some past work has suggested that lossy compression can be a good denoising tool. Building on this theme, we make the connection that quantization of transform coefficients approximates the operation of Donoho-Johnstone's wavelet thresholding, to conclude ...
