—In this paper, we present fast and efficient methods for the lossy encoding of object boundaries that are given as eight-connect chain codes. We approximate the boundary by a p...
This paper proposes a content-aware authentication scheme optimized to account for distortion and overhead for media streaming. When authenticated media is streamed over a lossy n...

Multiple Description (MD) and Layered Coding (LC) are two source-coding approaches proposed for adaptive and robust video streaming over lossy networks. Both streaming methods aim...
In this paper, we study the optimal way of distributing sensors in a random field to minimize the estimation distortion. We show that this problem is equivalent to certain proble...
Variants of Huffman codes where words are taken as the source symbols are currently the most attractive choices to compress natural language text databases. In particular, Tagged...
