In this paper we propose a method to retrieve sketches stored in the form of multiple strokes, by extracting the shape information for each stroke and by considering the spatial r...
Users of image databases often prefer to retrieve relevant images by categories. Unfortunately, images are usually indexed by low-level features like color, texture and shape, whi...
A fixed-rate lattice vector quantizer for generalized Gaussian (GG) sources is presented. By using the contour of counstant probability of a generalized Gaussian source to bound t...
