Segmentation of Signals, Time Series, and Images

摘要

Signals and time series often are not homogeneous but rather are generated by mechanisms or processes with various phases. Similarly, images are not homogeneous but contain various objects. 'Segmentation' is a process of attempting to recover automatically the phases or objects. A model for representing such signals, time series, and images is discussed. Some approaches to estimation and segmentation in this model are presented.
