Data aggregation in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) is only marginally present in commercial systems nowadays, mostly through ad-hoc solutions. In this paper, we first present a formal model for representing spatial data. This model…

Large-scale planting of trees has been proposed as a low-cost natural solution for carbon mitigation, but is hampered by poor selection of plantation sites, especially in developing countries. To aid in site selection, we develop the ePSA…

Many image processing applications rely on partitioning an image into disjoint regions whose pixels are 'similar.' The watershed and waterfall transforms are established mathematical morphology pixel clustering techniques. They are both…

Image segmentation algorithms often depend on appearance models that characterize the distribution of pixel values in different image regions. We describe a new approach for estimating appearance models directly from an image, without…

Scene graph generation has emerged as an important problem in computer vision. While scene graphs provide a grounded representation of objects, their locations and relations in an image, they do so only at the granularity of proposal…

Optimal subset selection is an important task that has numerous algorithms designed for it and has many application areas. STPGA contains a special genetic algorithm supplemented with a tabu memory property (that keeps track of previously…

Partitioning for load balancing is a crucial first step to parallelize any type of computation. In this work, we propose SGORP, a new spatial partitioning method based on Subgradient Optimization, to solve the $d$-dimensional Rectilinear…

Technological advances have led to a proliferation of structured big data that have matrix-valued covariates. We are specifically motivated to build predictive models for multi-subject neuroimaging data based on each subject's brain imaging…

Matching local features across images is a fundamental problem in computer vision. Targeting towards high accuracy and efficiency, we propose Seeded Graph Matching Network, a graph neural network with sparse structure to reduce redundant…

Image co-segmentation is a challenging task in computer vision that aims to segment all pixels of the objects from a predefined semantic category. In real-world cases, however, common foreground objects often vary greatly in appearance,…

Image segmentation is the process of partitioning an image into meaningful segments. The meaning of the segments is subjective due to the definition of homogeneity is varied based on the users perspective hence the automation of the…

Spatially referenced data are increasingly available thanks to the development of modern GPS technology. They also provide rich opportunities for spatial analytics in the field of marketing science. Our main interest is to propose a new…

Interpolation of sparse pixel information towards a dense target resolution finds its application across multiple disciplines in computer vision. State-of-the-art interpolation of motion fields applies model-based interpolation that makes…

Superpixel segmentation is a foundation for many higher-level computer vision tasks, such as image segmentation, object recognition, and scene understanding. Existing graph-based superpixel segmentation methods typically concentrate on the…

Recent advancements in Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) have significantly enhanced the capabilities of both image generation and editing. However, current approaches often treat these tasks separately, leading to inefficiencies…

We consider detecting objects in an image by iteratively selecting from a set of arbitrarily shaped candidate regions. Our generic approach, which we term visual chunking, reasons about the locations of multiple object instances in an image…

It is always well believed that parsing an image into constituent visual patterns would be helpful for understanding and representing an image. Nevertheless, there has not been evidence in support of the idea on describing an image with a…

The network flow optimization approach is offered for Bayesian segmentation of gray-scale and color images. It is supposed image pixels are characterized by a feature function taking finite number of arbitrary rational values (it can be…

We present in this paper an image segmentation approach that combines a fuzzy semantic region classification and a context based region-growing. Input image is first over-segmented. Then, prior domain knowledge is used to perform a fuzzy…

Scaling laws dictate that the performance of AI models is proportional to the amount of available data. Data augmentation is a promising solution to expanding the dataset size. Traditional approaches focused on augmentation using rotation,…
