In this paper, we propose a method to distinguish between handwritten and machine-printed characters with no need to locate character or text-line positions. We transform a local ...
The problem of efficient video transmission over noisy channels involves good compression rates and robustness in presence of channel failures. The proposed framework of joint sou...
Extraction of anatomical structures (landmarks), such as optic disk (OD), fovea and blood vessels, from fundus images is useful in automatic diagnosis. Current approaches largely ...

We propose a directional fuzzy lter to enhance the quality of compressed video sequences. A motion compensated spatiotemporal lter (MCSTF) is applied to intra-frame and inter-fram...
The aim of this paper is to examine the effect of camera motion in user generated video with respect to human visual attention. Having a more accurate human attention model is par...
Many scalable video coding systems use frame downsampling in order to reduce complexity and to enable enhancement layers. Super-resolution (SR) can be used to help the up-sampling...

Compressive sensing (CS) has received a lot of interest due to its compression capability and lack of complexity on the sensor side. In this paper, we present a study of three sam...
Hashes can be used to provide authentication of multimedia contents. In the case of images, a hash can be used to detect whether the data has been modified in an illegitimate way....

Exploding amounts of multimedia data increasingly require automatic indexing and classification, e.g. training classifiers to produce high-level features, or semantic concepts, ch...

Graph cuts have proven to be powerful tools in image segmentation. Previous graph cut research has proposed methods for cutting across large graphs constructed from multiple layer...
