Estimating the digital matte is useful in image and video editing tasks such as background replacement. BLOCK DIAGRAM: EXISITING SCHEME: Poisson matting‚ Closed-form matting and Non local matting. The assumptions of large kernels by and local color line of are relaxed in KNN matting using non local principles and K nearest neighbors‚ SVR Matting‚ Bayesian Matting‚ and Robust Matting.

Learning a language is one thing and using it effectively is another. To be able to use language as leverage for the success we need to understand standard strategies used in different contexts. MacLean (2010) divides the system of writing into “three classical rhetorics or art of presenting an argument which is: logos( the logic of argument)‚ ethos( credibility and ethics)‚ and pathos (the emotional appeal).”(p.135‚ para 1) In this essay‚ we will study five of the nine cognate strategies followed

There are two events: a favorable market (event 1) and an unfavorable market (event 2). There are four alternatives‚ which include do nothing (alternative 1)‚ invest in corporate bonds (alternative 2)‚ invest in preferred stock (alternative 3)‚ and invest in common stock (alternative 4). The decision table is presented. Note that for alternative 2‚ the return in a good market

of the field of random networks. An important prediction of random network theory is regardless of the random placement of links most nodes will still have approximately the same number of links. In fact‚ in a random network the nodes follow a Poisson distribution with a bell shape (see Fig.1). Random networks are also called exponential‚ because the probability that a node is connected to k other sites decreases exponentially for large k. This is better described by the famous small world networks
