The block-matching motion estimation algorithm using a translational motion model cannot provide acceptable image quality in low bit-rate coding. To improve coding performance, we ...
We present a novel directionally adaptive image interpolation based on a multiple-direction wavelet transform, called directionlets. The algorithm uses directionlets to efficient...
Visual data comprises of multi-scale and inhomogeneous signals. In this paper, we exploit these characteristics and develop an adaptive data approximation technique based on a hie...
The learning-enhanced relevance feedback has been one of the most active research areas in content-based image retrieval in recent years. However, few methods using the relevance ...
In this work we construct scale invariant descriptors (SIDs) without requiring the estimation of image scale; we thereby avoid scale selection which is often unreliable. Our start...
