New models improve morpheme segmentation in low-resource languages.
Extending the earlier results for analytic curve segments, in this article we describe the asymptotic behaviour of evolution of a finite segment of a C^n-smooth curve under the geodesic flow on the unit tangent bundle of a finite volume hyperbolic n-manifold. In particular, we show that if the curve satisfies certain n…
We extend first-order model agnostic meta-learning algorithms (including FOMAML and Reptile) to image segmentation, present a novel neural network architecture built for fast learning which we call EfficientLab, and leverage a formal definition of the test error of meta-learning algorithms to decrease error on out of d…
A new probabilistic polygonal curve representation using Gaussian Mixture Models.
Analysis of flow cytometry data is an essential tool for clinical diagnosis of hematological and immunological conditions. Current clinical workflows rely on a manual process called gating to classify cells into their canonical types. This dependence on human annotation limits the rate, reproducibility, and complexity …
Segmental structure is a common pattern in many types of sequences such as phrases in human languages. In this paper, we present a probabilistic model for sequences via their segmentations. The probability of a segmented sequence is calculated as the product of the probabilities of all its segments, where each segment …

Learning-based methods for visual segmentation have made progress on particular types of segmentation tasks, but are limited by the necessary supervision, the narrow definitions of fixed tasks, and the lack of control during inference for correcting errors. To remedy the rigidity and annotation burden of standard appro…

Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been widely and successfully used for medical image segmentation. However, CNNs are typically considered to require large numbers of dedicated expert-segmented training volumes, which may be limiting in practice. This work investigates whether clinically obtained segmentations …
NCPF model improves traffic data imputation with neural and tensor methods.
DNA rearrangement processes recombine gene segments that are organized on the chromosome in a variety of ways. The segments can overlap, interleave or one may be a subsegment of another. We use directed graphs to represent segment organizations on a given locus where contigs containing rearranged segments represent ver…

The Hausdorff Distance (HD) is widely used in evaluating medical image segmentation methods. However, existing segmentation methods do not attempt to reduce HD directly.

We consider the task of temporal segmentation of a set of time series data into representative stationary segments. We use Gaussian process (GP) priors to impose our knowledge about the characteristics of the …
We introduce a novel Deep Learning framework, which quantitatively estimates image segmentation quality without the need for human inspection or labeling. We refer to this method as a Quality Assurance Network -- QANet. Specifically, given an image and a `proposed' corresponding segmentation, obtained by any method inc…

Spatially-aware metrics improve uncertainty evaluation in segmentation.
LSTM-based speaker verification usually uses a fixed-length local segment randomly truncated from an utterance to learn the utterance-level speaker embedding, while using the average embedding of all segments of a test utterance to verify the speaker, which results in a critical mismatch between testing and training. T…
To accurately analyze changes of anatomical structures in longitudinal imaging studies, consistent segmentation across multiple time-points is required. Existing solutions often involve independent registration and segmentation components. Registration between time-points is used either as a prior for segmentation in a…

A new heuristic LM algorithm improves -segmentation accuracy with less computation.
Todays interactive devices such as smart-phone assistants and smart speakers often deal with short-duration speech segments. As a result, speaker recognition systems integrated into such devices will be much better suited with models capable of performing the recognition task with short-duration utterances. In this pap…
Many software analysis methods have come to rely on machine learning approaches. Code segmentation - the process of decomposing source code into meaningful blocks - can augment these methods by featurizing code, reducing noise, and limiting the problem space. Traditionally, code segmentation has been done using syntact…

Image segmentation is the process of partitioning an image into a set of meaningful regions according to some criteria. Hierarchical segmentation has emerged as a major trend in this regard as it favors the emergence of important regions at different scales. On the other hand, many methods allow us to have prior inform…

Many real-world vision problems suffer from inherent ambiguities. In clinical applications for example, it might not be clear from a CT scan alone which particular region is cancer tissue. Therefore a group of graders typically produces a set of diverse but plausible segmentations. We consider the task of learning a di…
We introduce a new numerical knot invariant, termed the \textit{segment number}, which is derived from partitioned knot diagrams subject to specific over/under-crossing constraints. We prove that a knot is non-trivial if and only if its segment number is at least 3. Furthermore, we investigate the structural properties…
Data driven segmentation is an important initial step of shape prior-based segmentation methods since it is assumed that the data term brings a curve to a plausible level so that shape and data terms can then work together to produce better segmentations. When purely data driven segmentation produces poor results, the …
