Iterative graph cuts for image segmentation with a nonlinear statistical shape prior
Shape-based regularization has proven to be a useful method for delineating objects within noisy images where one has prior knowledge of the shape of the targeted object.

Fault Diagnosis of Rolling Bearings Based on EWT and KDEC
This study proposes a novel fault diagnosis method that is based on empirical wavelet transform (EWT) and kernel density estimation classifier (KDEC), which can well diagnose fault type of the rolling element bearings.

Graph Bundling by Kernel Density Estimation [PDF]
AbstractWe present a fast and simple method to compute bundled layouts of general graphs. For this, we first transform a given graph drawing into a density map using kernel density estimation. Next, we apply an image sharpening technique which progressively merges local height maxima by moving the convolved graph edges into the height gradient flow ...

Optimal Bandwidth Selection for Kernel Density Functionals Estimation
The choice of bandwidth is crucial to the kernel density estimation (KDE) and kernel based regression. Various bandwidth selection methods for KDE and local least square regression have been developed in the past decade.

What Do Kernel Density Estimators Optimize? [PDF]
Summary: Some linkages between kernel and penalty methods of density estimation are explored. It is recalled that classical Gaussian kernel density estimation can be viewed as the solution of the heat equation with initial condition given by data. We then observe that there is a direct relationship between the kernel method and a particular penalty ...

Improving Radio Source Count Estimation Using Kernel Density Estimation
Radio source counts provide a fundamental census of cosmic radio emission, yet their estimation is usually based on coarse histograms that suffer from bin-choice bias, boundary effects, and survey incompleteness.
