Mdl-Based Band Selection and Adaptive Penalties for Hyperspectral Image Segmentation
All MRF image-segmentation criteria as in Step 3 have spatial-penalty parameters that must be chosen. An adaptive algorithm that chooses the penalty parameters to maximize the pseudo-likelihood (PL) of the current image was developed by Lakshmanan and Derin, but it uses a costly simulated-annealing …

Information Theoretic Methods For Biometrics, Clustering, And Stemmatology
… propose the use of minimum description length: MDL) principle for graphical based clustering. In the MDL framework, each data partitioning is viewed as a description of the data points, and the description that minimizes the total amount of bits to describe the data points and the model itself …

Investigations of and performance improvements in the mercury thiourea complex ion chromatography method for mercury speciation analysis
… HgII directly. Method detection limit (MDL) studies were performed for MeHg and HgII resulting in a MeHg MDL of 0.003 ng/L and a HgII MDL of 0.01 ng/L for 40 mL samples. The MeHg MDL rivals that of ethylation/GC and exceeds those of other HPLC methods. The HgII MDL rivals the best HPLC …

Fast Parallel Algorithms for Universal Lossless Source Coding
… parallel compression algorithm estimates the MDL source among all tree sources whose maximal depth is log( N/B). This algorithm can be extended to parallel algorithms that support unbounded context depths. This will provide low redundancy performance over a much broader class of sources, and …
