Fuzzy set theory is making many inroads into the handling of uncertainty in various aspects of image processing and computer vision. High level computer vision is a place that holds great potential for fuzzy sets because of its natural linguistic capabilities. Scene description, i

In this dissertation we present an architecture to incorporate collateral information in the high level computer vision task of object location. The declarative specification of the scene hypothesis and the domain independent control algorithm that exploits spatial information to drive the vision

in low and high level computer vision. The unification is made possible due to a recent advance in MRF modeling for high level object recognition. Such unification provides a systematic approach for vision modeling based on sound mathematical principles. 1 Introduction Since its beginning in early 1960

We show a learning-based method for low-level vision problems. We set-up a Markov network of patches of the image and the underlying scene. A factorization approximation allows us to easily learn the parameters of the Markov network from synthetic examples of image/scene pairs, and to e ciently

utilities, will provide the basic level of computing service that is considered essential to meet the everyday needs of the general community. To deliver this vision, a number of computing paradigms have been proposed, of which the latest one is known as Cloud computing. Hence, in this paper, we define

In this approach, early vision consists of a set of parallel pathways, each analyzing some particular aspect of the visual stimulus

After [10, 15, 12, 2, 4] minimum cut/maximum flow algorithms on graphs emerged as an increasingly useful tool for exact or approximate energy minimization in low-level vision. The combinatorial optimization literature provides many min-cut/max-flow algorithms with different polynomial time

Abstract The U-Net communication architecture provides processes with a virtual view of a network device to enable user-level access to high-speed communication devices. The architecture, implemented on standard workstations using off-the-shelf ATM communication hardware, removes the kernel from
