Wavelet zerotree encoding has been proven to be an efficient way of compressing still images. Two well-known zerotree encoding algorithms, Embedded Zerotree Encoding (EZW) and Se...
Embedded Block Coding with Optimal Truncation (EBCOT) is the fundamental and computationally very demanding part of the compression process of JPEG2000 image compression standard. ...
In this paper we present a comprehensive method for identifying probable shadow regions in an image. Doing so is relevant to computer vision, colour constancy, and image reproduct...
A new architecture for region of interest (ROI) image coding is proposed. ROIs are defined as image regions containing objects of interest, and an efficient algorithm proposed for...
Inherent to photograph-like images are two types of structures: large smooth regions and geometrically smooth edge contours separating those regions. Over the past years, efficien...
