We study the cosegmentation problem where objective is to segment same object (i.e., region) from a pair of images. The segmentation for each image can be cast using partitioning/segmentation function with an additional constraint that seeks make histograms segmented regions (based on intensity and texture features) similar. Using Markov Random Field (MRF) energy terms simultaneous images together histogram consistency requirements squared L(2) (rather than L(1)) distance, after...

With the proliferation of wearable cameras, number videos users documenting their personal lives using such devices is rapidly increasing. Since may span hours, there an important need for mechanisms that represent information content in a compact form (i.e., shorter which are more easily browsable/sharable). Motivated by these applications, this paper focuses on problem egocentric video summarization. Such usually continuous with significant camera shake and other quality issues. Because...

Our primary interest is in generalizing the problem of Cosegmentation to a large group images, that is, concurrent segmentation common foreground region(s) from multiple images. We further wish for our algorithm offer scale invariance (foregrounds may have arbitrary sizes different images) and running time increase (no more than) near linearly number images set. What makes this setting particularly challenging even if we ignore desiderata, problem, as formalized many recent papers (except),...

We study the problem of online subspace learning in context sequential observations involving structured perturbations. In learning, are an unknown mixture two components presented to model sequentially - main effect which pertains and a residual/error term. If no additional requirement is imposed on residual, it often corresponds noise terms signal were unaccounted for by effect. To remedy this, one may impose "structural" contiguity, has intended leveraging secondary as covariate that...

Both encompass light fermion singlet as DM candidate account observed relic abundance through, respectively,...

Abstract Numerous studies indicate that the genome of higher eukaryotes is organized into distinct chromosome territories and 3‐D arrangement these may be closely connected to genomic function global regulation gene expression. Despite this progress, degree non‐random remains unclear no overall model has been proposed for territory associations. To address issue, a re‐FISH approach was combined with computational analysis pair‐wise associations six pairs human chromosomes (chr #1, 4, 11, 12,...

Abstract Higher order chromatin organization in concert with epigenetic regulation is a key process that determines gene expression at the global level. The of dynamic domains and their associated protein factors intertwined nuclear function to create higher levels functional zones within cell nucleus. As step towards elucidating dynamics these zones, we have investigated spatial proximities among constellation functionally related sites are found euchromatic regions nucleus including: HP1γ,...

Abstract There is growing evidence that chromosome territories have a probabilistic non‐random arrangement within the cell nucleus of mammalian cells. Other than their radial positioning, however, our knowledge degree and specificity territory associations predominantly limited to studies pair‐wise associations.

A bstract We study a generic leptophilic U(1) X extension of the standard model with light gauge boson. The charge assignments for leptons are guided by lepton universality violating (LUV) observables in semileptonic b → sℓℓ decays, muon anomalous magnetic moment and origin leptonic masses mixing.

Abstract We consider a singlet fermionic dark matter (DM) χ in gauged U(1) B -3 L i extension of the Standard Model (SM), with ⋲ e, μ, τ , and derive bounds on allowed parameter space, considering its production via freeze-in mechanism. The DM communicates SM only through flavorful vector-portal Z B3L due to non-trivial charge x under which also guarantees stability over age Universe for ≠ {±3/2, ±3}. Considering lie within mass range few MeV up GeV, we obtain constraints gauge coupling g...

We present a computational approach for improving the quality of resolution images acquired from commonly available low magnification commercial slide scanners. Images such scanners can be cheaply and are efficient in terms storage data transfer. However, they generally poorer than high-resolution microscopes do not have necessary needed diagnostic or clinical environments, hence used settings. The driving question this presented research is whether these could enhanced that it would serve...
