A Stochastic-Variational Model for Soft Mumford-Shah Segmentation

“…In the current work, we propose a stochastic-variational model for <emph>soft</emph> (or fuzzy) Mumford-Shah segmentation of mixture image patterns. Unlike the classical <emph>hard</emph> Mumford-Shah segmentation, the new model allows each pixel to belong to each image pattern with some probability. …”

The Fractional Kalman Filter-Based Asynchronous Multirate Sensor Information Fusion by Guangyue Xue, Yubin Xu, Jing Guo, Wei Zhao

“…Based on the characteristics of multirate and delay measurement, the state is reestimated at the time when the delayed measurement occurs by using weighted fractional Kalman filter, and then the state estimation is updated at the current time when the delayed measurement arrives following the similar pattern of Kalman filter. The simulation examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed fusion method.…”
