In this paper, we present a new coding scheme for depth maps using a hierarchical decomposition. After we decompose a depth map into three disjoint images and a layer descriptor a...
This paper addresses the problem of bit-rate conversion of MPEG compressed video. We present selective requantization, a method for reducing the requantization errors in transcodi...
In our recent work, a class of parametric transforms, including family of Haar-like transforms, was introduced and studied in application to image compression. Parametric Haar-lik...
This paper presents a tree-to-tree transduction method for text rewriting. Our model is based on synchronous tree substitution grammar, a formalism that allows local distortion of...
Three-dimensional (3-D) subband/wavelet coding using a motion compensated temporal filter (MCTF) is emerging as a very effective structure for highly scalable video coding. Most p...
