We present a drift-correcting template update strategy for precisely tracking a feature point in 2D image sequences in this paper. The proposed strategy greatly extends Matthews et al’s template tracking strategy [I. Matthews, T. Ishikawa and S. Baker, The template update problem, IEEE Trans. PAMI 26 (2004) 810-815.] by incorporating a robust non-rigid image registration step used in medical im...

We investigate the equivalence between the convergences of the Mann iteration method and the Ishikawa iteration method with errors for demicontinuous φ-strongly accretive operators in uniformly smooth Banach spaces. A related result deals with the equivalence of theMann iterationmethod and the Ishikawa iterationmethod for φ-pseudocontractive operators in nonempty closed convex subsets of unifor...

This paper introduce a iteration scheme for approximation of strongly accretive operator equations in reflexive Banach space with weakly continuous duality mapping. Our result improve the results of Y. Xu [Ishikawa and Mann Iterative Processes with Errors for Nonlinear Strongly Accretive Operator Equations, J. Math. Anal Appl. 224(1998) 91-101] and I. Inchan and S. Plubtieng [Approximating solu...

We propose the class of uniformly convex W -hyperbolic spaces with monotone modulus of uniform convexity (UCW -hyperbolic spaces for short) as an appropriate setting for the study of nonexpansive iterations. UCW -hyperbolic spaces are a natural generalization both of uniformly convex normed spaces and CAT (0)-spaces. Furthermore, we apply proof mining techniques to get effective rates of asympt...

In this paper , we study the strong convergence of SP iterative scheme for quasi-contractive operators in Banach spaces. We show that Picard , Mann , Ishikawa , Noor, new two step and SP iterative schemes are equivalent for quasi-contractive operators. In addition, we show that the rate of convergence of SP iterative scheme is better than the other iterative schemes mentioned above for increasi...
