A database of human segmented natural images and its application to evaluating segmentation algorithms and measuring ecological statistics
- in Proc. 8th Int’l Conf. Computer Vision
, 2001
"... This paper presents a database containing ‘ground truth ’ segmentations produced by humans for images of a wide variety of natural scenes. We define an error measure which quantifies the consistency between segmentations of differing granularities and find that different human segmentations of the s ..."

of the same image are highly consistent. Use of this dataset is demonstrated in two applications: (1) evaluating the performance of segmentation algorithms and (2) measuring probability distributions associated with Gestalt grouping factors as well as statistics of image region properties. 1.
Unsupervised texture segmentation using Gabor filters
- Pattern Recognition
"... We presenf a texture segmentation algorithm inspired by the multi-channel filtering theory for visual information processing in the early stages of human visual system. The channels are characterized by a bank of Gabor filters that nearly uniformly covers the spatial-frequency domain. We propose a s ..."

Region Competition: Unifying Snakes, Region Growing, and Bayes/MDL for Multi-band Image Segmentation
- IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence
, 1996
"... We present a novel statistical and variational approach to image segmentation based on a new algorithm named region competition. This algorithm is derived by minimizing a generalized Bayes/MDL criterion using the variational principle. The algorithm is guaranteed to converge to a local minimum and c ..."

Segmentation of brain MR images through a hidden Markov random field model and the expectation-maximization algorithm
- IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON MEDICAL. IMAGING
, 2001
"... The finite mixture (FM) model is the most commonly used model for statistical segmentation of brain magnetic resonance (MR) images because of its simple mathematical form and the piecewise constant nature of ideal brain MR images. However, being a histogram-based model, the FM has an intrinsic limi ..."

A Survey of Medical Image Registration
, 1998
"... The purpose of this chapter is to present a survey of recent publications concerning medical image registration techniques. These publications will be classified according to a model based on nine salient criteria, the main dichotomy of which is extrinsic versus intrinsic methods The statistics of t ..."

Mega: molecular evolutionary genetic analysis software for microcomputers
- CABIOS
, 1994
"... A computer program package called MEGA has been developed for estimating evolutionary distances, reconstructing phylogenetic trees and computing basic statistical quantities from molecular data. It is written in C+ + and is intended to be used on IBM and IBM-compatible personal computers. In this pr ..."

, new algorithms of branch-and-bound and heuristic searches are implemented. In addition, MEGA computes statistical quantities such as nucleotide and amino acid frequencies, transition/transversion biases, codon frequencies (codon usage tables), and the number of variable sites in specified segments
Multimodality Image Registration by Maximization of Mutual Information
- IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON MEDICAL IMAGING
, 1997
"... A new approach to the problem of multimodality medical image registration is proposed, using a basic concept from information theory, mutual information (MI), or relative entropy, as a new matching criterion. The method presented in this paper applies MI to measure the statistical dependence or in ..."

Matching words and pictures
- JOURNAL OF MACHINE LEARNING RESEARCH
, 2003
"... We present a new approach for modeling multi-modal data sets, focusing on the specific case of segmented images with associated text. Learning the joint distribution of image regions and words has many applications. We consider in detail predicting words associated with whole images (auto-annotation ..."

A comparison of bayesian methods for haplotype reconstruction from population genotype data.
- Am J Hum Genet

Statistical methods for inferring haplotypes are therefore of considerable interest. In some studies, data may be available on related
