On the convergence of the mean shift algorithm in the one-dimensional space

چکیده

The mean shift algorithm is a non-parametric and iterative technique that has been used for finding modes of an estimated probability density function. It has been successfully employed in many applications in specific areas of machine vision, pattern recognition, and image processing. Although the mean shift algorithm has been used in many applications, a rigorous proof of its convergence is still missing in the literature. In this paper we address the convergence of the mean shift algorithm in the one-dimensional space and prove that the sequence generated by the mean shift algorithm is a monotone and convergent sequence.

A regularization method for solving a nonlinear backward inverse heat conduction problem using discrete mollification method

The present essay scrutinizes the application of discrete mollification as a filtering procedure to solve a nonlinear backward inverse heat conduction problem in one dimensional space. These problems are seriously ill-posed. So, we combine discrete mollification and space marching method to address the ill-posedness of the proposed problem. Moreover, a proof of stability and<b...

An Implicit Difference-ADI Method for the Two-dimensional Space-time Fractional Diffusion Equation

Fractional order diffusion equations are generalizations of classical diffusion equations which are used to model in physics, finance, engineering, etc. In this paper we present an implicit difference approximation by using the alternating directions implicit (ADI) approach to solve the two-dimensional space-time fractional diffusion equation (2DSTFDE) on a finite domain. Consistency, unconditi...
