Although Support Vector Machines(SVM) succeed in classifying several image databases using image descriptors proposed in the literature, no single descriptor can be optimal for ge...
In standard predictive video coders, intra-mode coding of macroblocks (MBs) provides packet loss resilience, at the cost of reduced compression efficiency. Conventional mode selec...
Abstract. Constraint Programming (CP) offers a rich modeling language of constraints embedding efficient algorithms to handle complex and heterogeneous combinatorial problems. To s...
