We present the design and implementation of a new programming language for media-intensive applications called Flavor (Formal Language for Audio-Visual Object Representation). It ...
Compressed sensing, an emerging multidisciplinary field involving mathematics, probability, optimization, and signal processing, focuses on reconstructing an unknown signal from a...

Fractal image compression is a block based technique. The blocks of the underlying image partition are called range blocks. Like all block based techniques, fractal coding suffers...
This paper proposes a new image compression scheme by introducing visual patterns to nonlinear interpolative vector quantization (IVQ). Input images are first distorted by a gener...
Local features are widely used for content-based image retrieval and object recognition. We present an efficient method for encoding digital images suitable for local feature extr...
