Large XML data files, or XML databases, are now a common way to distribute scientific and bibliographic data, and storing such data efficiently is an important concern. A number o...
We present a simple and efficient entropy coder that combines run-length and Golomb-Rice encoders. The encoder automatically switches between the two modes according to simple rul...
Abstract: We consider lossy source coding when side information affecting the distortion measure may be available at the encoder, decoder, both, or neither. For example, such disto...
We present a technique designed aiming to improve the compression of the Edgebreaker CLERS string for large and regular meshes, where regularity is understood as the compactness o...
We have designed and implemented a multi-linear discriminant method of constructing and quantifying statistically significant changes on human identity photographs. The method is...
