The ability to carry out biometric authentication using generic cameras can be extremely useful for a variety of applications, especially in mobile devices. Palmprint based authen...
Abstract. H.264 provides various useful features such as improved coding efficiency and error robustness. These features enable mobile device to adopt H.264/AVC standard to achieve...
A novel method is given for content-aware video resizing, i.e. targeting video to a new resolution (which may involve aspect ratio change) from the original. We precompute a per-p...
While mapping a streaming (such as multimedia or network packet processing) application onto a specified architecture, an important issue is to determine the input stream rates tha...
Mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) present quite large packet loss bursts due to mobility. In this work we propose two models based on hidden Markov models for estimating packet arri...
