Images typically contain smooth regions, which are easily compressed by linear transforms, and high activity regions (edges, textures), which are harder to compress. To compress t...

This paper introduces a level set methodology for the precise boundary localization of image objects within an indicated region, designed to be particularly robust against weak or...
In this paper, we propose a novel rate-distortion (R-D) optimized disparity based coding scheme for stereo images. This new scheme efficiently integrates the coding of the dispari...
This paper describes an approach to retrieve images containing specific objects, scenes or buildings. The image content is captured by a set of local features. More precisely, we ...
We present an authenticable graphical barcode symbology, and describe a system for its reliable encoding and decoding. The graphical barcode is generated by modulating halftone pa...

FingerCode has been shown to be an effective representation to capture both the local and global information in a fingerprint. However, the performance of FingerCode is influenced...
We consider the sensor broadcast problem: in our setup, sensors measure each one pixel of an image that unfolds over a field, and broadcast a rate constrained encoding of their me...
An efficient method for rate control is illustrated for joint source-channel rate selection and for encoding under multiple leaky bucket buffer constraints. This method shows adva...
Due to attenuation and spatial smoothing that occurs in the conducting media, the bioelectric inverse problem of estimating sources from remote measurements is ill-posed and solut...

Object-based video coding requires the transmission of the object shape. This shape is sent as a binary a-plane. In lossy packetbased networks, such as the Internet, this informat...
