In many modern video encoders, motion estimation is usually formulated as a Lagrangian cost function that balances motion prediction accuracy and the rate to transmit motion vecto...
Motivated by the need to efficiently leverage user relevance feedback in content-based retrieval from image databases, we propose a fast, clustering-based indexing technique for e...
The continual shrinkage of minimum feature size in integrated circuit (IC) fabrication incurs more and more serious distortion in the optical lithography process, generating circu...
This paper proposes a novel algorithm to reconstruct a 3D surface from a calibrated set of images. In a first pass, it uses Scale Invariant Features Transform (SIFT) descriptor co...
Distributed Video Coding (DVC) is a new paradigm in video coding, which is receiving a lot of interests nowadays. Side Information (SI) generation is a key function in the DVC dec...
In this paper, we focus on the use of random projections as a dimensionality reduction tool for sampled manifolds in highdimensional Euclidean spaces. We show that geodesic paths ...
Block-based motion and disparity compensation are popular techniques to exploit correlation between video frames. Block sizes used for compensation can be chosen to achieve a good...

This paper presents a distributed and occlusion-robust coding scheme for multi-view omnidirectional images, which relies on the geometry of the 3D scene. The Wyner-Ziv coder uses ...
In many neurophysiological studies, understanding the neuronal circuitry of the brain requires detailed 3D models of the nerve cells and their synapses. Typically, researchers bui...
This paper presents a novel method for colour image segmentation derived from the mean shift theorem. When applied to colour image segmentation tasks, the path assigned mean
