Content analysis of video and still images is attractive for multiple reasons, such as enabling content-based actions and image manipulation. This paper presents a new algorithm an...
Optimal fractal coding consists of finding in a finite set of contractive affine mappings one whose unique fixed point is closest to the original image. Optimal fractal coding is ...
—We propose a method to improve traditional character-based PPM text compression algorithms. Consider a text file as a sequence of alternating words and non-words, the basic ide...
In this paper we propose a method for extending the standard motion estimation algorithms used in video compression algorithms, to incorporate motion parameters that describe non-...

In this paper, we develop a stochastic approximation method to solve a monotone estimation problem and use this method to enhance the empirical performance of the Q-learning algor...
