In this paper we propose a locally adaptive image threshold technique via variational energy minimization. The novelty of the proposed method is that from an image it automaticall...
An object-based compression scheme for a class of dynamic image-based representations called "plenoptic videos" (PVs) is studied in this paper. PVs are simplified dynami...

?We present a method to automatically localize captions in JPEG compressed images and the I-frames of MPEG compressed videos. Caption text regions are segmented from background ima...
This paper presents a method for visual object categorization based on encoding the joint textural information in objects and the surrounding background, and requiring no segmenta...

In this paper we propose an algorithm for image recovery where completely lost blocks in an image/video-frame are recovered using spatial information surrounding these blocks. Our...
