A convex non-convex variational model is proposed for multiphase image segmen-tation. We consider a specially designed non-convex regularization term which adapts spatially tothe image structures for better controlling of the segmentation and easy handling of the intensityinhomogeneities. The nonlinear optimization problem is efficiently solved by an Alternating Direc-tions Meth...

A mixed-framework adaptive arithmetic coding technique is introduced in which the probability estimation process dynamically switches among a set of allowed models; the sequence of model choices is determined jointly with the relative data segmen-tation to yield the optimal coding performance for the given set of predictors. A speciic application is detailed in which the arithmetic coder can sw...

We overview different approaches to the study of hypercompu-tation and other investigations on the plausibility of the physical Church–Turing thesis. We propose five thesis to classify investigation in this area. Halloween. Sly does it. Tiptoe catspaws. Slide and creep. But why? What for? How? Who? When! Where did it all begin? " You don't know, do you? " asks Carapace Clavicle Moundshroud clim...

Our unique approach for learning English grapheme segmen tation LE GS rules using the Iterated Version Space Algorithm IVSA is presented After de ning the problem and our representation for the instances and hypotheses we illustrate the LE GS approach by trac ing a speci c example Experimental results based on a ten fold testing methodology are given to show the performance of the LE GS learnin...

This work stems from the widely accep ted hypothesis that housing price is determined by two types of character istic: structural and location al. Under this hypothesis, a methodology is presen ted for the spatial estimation of housing prices and location al rents: the Iterativ e Residual Kriging (IRK) method. The methodological aspects are complemented by the presen tation of an application of...
