In this paper, we propose a new nonparametric region-based active contour model for clutter image segmentation. To quantify the similarity between two clutter regions, we propose t...
Abstract--Transcoding is a key technique for reducing the bitrate of a previously compressed video signal. A high transcoding ratio may result in an unacceptable picture quality wh...
This paper considers the problem of encoding a secret binary image SI into n shares of meaningful halftone images within the scheme of visual cryptography (VC). Secret pixels enco...
This paper proposes a fast decoupling capacitance (decap) allocation and budgeting algorithm for both early stage decap estimation and later stage decap minimization in today’s ...

We introduce an approach to feature-based object recognition, using maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimation under a Markov random field (MRF) model. This approach provides an effici...
