Many popular image compression schemes are based on block-transform coding, a technique where images are broken into small blocks of pixels prior to transformation and compression...
PixED (from Pixel to Electronic Document) is aimed at converting document images into structured electronic documents which can be read by a machine for information retrieval. The...
General-purpose no-reference image quality assessment approaches still lag the advances in full-reference methods. Most no-reference methods are either distortion specific (i.e. t...

We address visual perception for personal service robotic systems in the home. We start by identifying the main functional modules and their relationships. This includes self-loca...
Automatic image orientation detection for natural images is a useful, yet challenging research area. Humans use scene context and semantic object recognition to identify the corre...
