A system to retrieve images using a description of the image intensity surface is presented. Gaussian derivative lters at several scales are applied to the image and low order 2D ...
The repeated pattern of I, P and B frames in an MPEG stream is known as the Group of Pictures (GOP). Current GOP choices are made using intuition and informal guidelines without t...
Abstract. The paper presents a partial order reduction method applicable to networks of timed automata. The advantage of the method is that it reduces both the number of explored c...
This paper presents a new generalized image block coding algorithm which covers fractal techniques, block transform techniques, and vector quantization as its special cases. The c...
As the importance of multimedia applications in hand-held devices increases, the computational strain and corresponding demand for energy in such devices continues to grow. Portab...
