Measuring the added high frequency energy in compressed video
A major focus of video quality assessment research has been to quantify the amount of blocking, blurring, and ringing impairments. However, little attention has been paid to anoth...

A context adaptation model for the compression of images with a reduced number of colors
Recently, Chen et al. proposed a method for compressing color-quantized images that is based on a binary tree representation of colors and on context-based arithmetic coding with ...

Motion vector prediction in multiview video coding
In video coding, motion vectors always account for a large number of bits and affect coding efficiency largely. In this paper, we propose an efficient motion vector prediction algo...

Range-enhanced active foreground extraction
We describe a new technique that uses active scene illumination to perform foreground-background segmentation and recover partial HDR information. We explore the fact that relativ...

A multichannel approach to metric-based SAR autofocus
The autofocus problem in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is considered. We precisely characterize the multichannel nature of the SAR autofocus problem by constructing a low-dimensi...

Real time facial expression recognition from image sequences using support vector machines
In this paper, two novel real-time methods are proposed for facial expression recognition in image sequences. The user manually places some of the Candide grid's points to th...

Explicit contour model for vehicle tracking with automatic hypothesis validation
This paper addresses the problem of vehicle tracking under a single static, uncalibrated camera without any constraints on the scene or on the motion direction of vehicles. We int...

The impulse responses of block shift-invariant systems and their use for demosaicing algorithms
Shift-invariant linear algorithms can be described completely by the algorithm's response to an impulse input. The so called impulse response can be used as filter kernels wh...
