— Video encoding to yield a decoder-friendly H.264 bit stream that consumes less decoding power yet with little coding efficiency degradation is investigated in this work. The e...
We propose a new model for image denoising which is a hybrid of the total variation model and the Laplacian mean-curvature model. An efficient numerical procedure to compute the h...
Although chip-multiprocessors have become the industry standard, developing parallel applications that target them remains a daunting task. Non-determinism, inherent in threaded a...
