This paper proposes error resilient video transcoding structures based on the multiple description (MD) scheme. Two structures are proposed for different use, namely low complexit...
Determining if a solution is optimal or near optimal is fundamental in optimization theory, algorithms, and computation. For instance, Karush-Kuhn-Tucker conditions provide necessa...
This paper describes a simple method for estimating the surface radiance function from single images of smooth surfaces made of materials whose reflectance function is isotropic a...
Probabilistic Latent Semantic Analysis (PLSA) has become a popular topic model for image clustering. However, the traditional PLSA method considers each image (document) independen...
Previous work on planning accelerated life tests has been based on large-sample approximations to evaluate test plan properties. In this paper, we use more accurate simulation met...
