• A Continuous Max-Flow Approach to Minimal Partitions with Label Cost Prior 

      Yuan, Jing; Bae, Egil; Boykov, Yuri; Tai, Xue-Cheng (Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2011)
      This paper investigates a convex relaxation approach for minimum description length (MDL) based image partitioning or labeling, which proposes an energy functional regularized by the spatial smoothness prior joint with a ...
    • A Fast Continuous Max-Flow Approach to Non-Convex Multilabeling Problems 

      Bae, Egil; Yuan, Jing; Tai, Xue-Cheng; Boykov, Yuri (Journal article, 2011)
      This work addresses a class of multilabeling problems over a spatially continuous image domain, where the data fidelity term can be any bounded function, not necessarily convex. Two total variation based regularization ...
    • Global Minimization for Continuous Multiphase Partitioning Problems Using a Dual Approach 

      Bae, Egil; Yuan, Jing; Tai, Xue-Cheng (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010)
      This paper is devoted to the optimization problem of continuous multi-partitioning, or multi-labeling, which is based on a convex relaxation of the continuous Potts model. In contrast to previous efforts, which are tackling ...
    • A Study on Continuous Max-Flow and Min-Cut Approaches 

      Yuan, Jing; Bae, Egil; Tai, Xue-Cheng (Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2010)
      We propose and investigate novel max-flow models in the spatially continuous setting, with or without supervised constraints, under a comparative study of graph based max-flow / min-cut. We show that the continuous max-flow ...
