Quantizers are generally designed either for fixed-rate coding or variable-rate coding. Under common conditions, variable-rate quantization leads to the same mean distortion for ...
We address the connection between the multiple-description (MD) problem and Delta-Sigma quantization. The inherent redundancy due to oversampling in Delta-Sigma quantization, and ...
Information theoretic tools lead to the design and analysis of new blind data hiding methods. A novel quantizationbased blind method, which uses trellis coded quantization, is pro...
