A new compound image compression algorithm is proposed, based on Shape Primitive Extraction and Coding (SPEC). The SPEC first segments a compound image into text/graphics pixels an...
The objective measurement of blocking artifacts plays an important role in the design, optimization, and assessment of image and video coding systems. We propose a new approach th...
A large-scale psychophysical experiment was performed examining the effects of various simultaneous variations of image parameters on perceived image sharpness. The goal of this e...
By definition, a heavyweight network service requires a significant amount of computation to complete its task. Providing a heavyweight service is challenging for a number of reaso...
Interactive robotics demands real-time visual information about the environment. Real time vision processing, however, places a heavy load on the robot’s limited resources, and m...
