A scalable video coder cannot be equally efficient over a wide range of bit-rates unless both the video data and the motion information are scalable. We propose a wavelet-based, h...
We are investigating methods to accelerate rendering of architectural walkthroughs. In this paper, we improve upon a cells and portals framework by using images to replace geometr...

This paper addresses the problem of rate distortion analysis in the context of multi-view image coding, where images are predicted via disparity compensation based on depth map. W...
This paper presents a layered animation framework which uses displacement maps for efficient representation and animation of highly detailed surfaces. The model consists of three...

The Mixed Raster Content (MRC) document compression standard (ITU T.44) specifies a multi-layer multi-resolution representation of a compound document. The model is very efficie...
