One of the most severe problems in hybrid video coding is its block-based approach, which leads to distortions called blocking artifacts. These artifacts affect not only the subje...
We investigate the use of an unsupervised artificial neural network to form a sparse representation of the underlying causes in a data set. By using fixed lateral connections that...
—Texture features that are based on the local power spectrum obtained by a bank of Gabor filters are compared. The features differ in the type of nonlinear post-processing which ...

A robust segmentation is the most important part of an automatic character recognition system (e.g. document processing, license plate recognition etc.). In our contribution we pr...
We present a new algorithm for efficient rendering of high-quality depth-of-field (DoF) effects. We start with a single rasterized view (reference view) of the scene, and sample t...
