— The pervasive computing environment and the wide network bandwidth provide users more opportunities to utilize remote computing resources. In this paper, we introduce a highper...
Scalability and others functionalities such as the Region of Interest encoding become essential properties of an efficient image coding scheme. Within the framework of lossless co...
We investigate the usage of edge-based inpainting as an intra prediction method in block-based image compression. The joint utilization of edge information and the well-known Lapl...
The spatial resolution of the human visual system (HVS) decreases rapidly away from the point of fixation (foveation point). By exploiting this fact, we propose a watermarking app...
The rise of GPS and broadband-speed wireless devices has led to tremendous excitement about a range of applications broadly characterized as "location based services". Cu...
