In the following sections, we supply additional qualitative experimental results. Section 1 shows the facial statistical shape model (Point Distribution Model) used in all experiments. Section 2 provides additional results regarding the convergence of the proposed algorithm. Finally, in Section 3 we report some qualitative fitting results that supplement the experiments of Sec. 3.3 of the origi...

In this paper we model speckle as signal-dependent additive noise, and propose to use the normal inverse Gaussian distribution as a statistical model for the wavelet coefficients of both the reflectance image and noise image. Further, we show how to estimate the parameters specifying these distributions from the parameters included in the K-distribution modeling the intensity of a SAR image. we...

A new and simple statistical approach is performed to calculate the parton distribution functions (PDFs) of the nucleon in terms of light-front kinematic variables. We do not put in any extra arbitrary parameter or corrected term by hand, which guarantees the stringency of our approach. Analytic expressions of the x-dependent PDFs are obtained in the whole x region [0,1], and some features, esp...
