Motivated by the lossy compression of an active-vision video stream, we consider the problem of finding the rate-distortion function of an arbitrarily varying source (AVS) compos...
Current developments in processing data streams are based on the best-effort principle and therefore not adequate for many application areas. When sensor data is gathered by inte...
When estimating foreground and background layers (or equivalently an alpha matte), it is often the case that pixel measurements contain mixed colours which are a combination of for...
