In this paper, we present a new dichromatic-based method for estimating illuminant chromaticity using a single image. In the proposed method, specular pixels are roughly extracted...
A very fast, low complexity algorithm for resolution scalable and random access decoding is presented. The algorithm avoids the multiple passes of bit-plane coding for speed impro...
Fundamental to any graph cut segmentation methods is the assignment of edge weights. The existing solutions typically use gaussian, exponential or rectangular cost functions with ...
We present a data embedding method for image communication applications. Our goal is to implement novel multimedia applications such as multi-language captions, interactive progra...
The FUNtain (TM) is a new input device in which a user inputs data by direct interaction with fluid, such as with one or more air or water jets. There is usually a (re)strictomet...
Binary Partition Trees (BPTs) are a well known technique used for region-based image representation and analysis. BPTs are usually created as a result of a merging process based o...
This paper investigates the semantic analysis of broadcast tennis footage. We consider the spatio-temporal behaviour of an object in the footage as being the embodiment of a seman...
Previous work on rate-distortion optimized streaming of light fields assumes that the scheduling task is performed by a central server. To scale to large numbers of simultaneous ...
—In this paper we introduce a new 3D automatic registration method based on Gaussian fields and energy minimization. The method defines a simple ∞ C energy function, which is c...
