We study the use of kernel subspace methods that learn low-dimensional subspace representations for classification tasks. In particular, we propose a new method called kernel weigh...
When multiple video streams are present in an ad hoc network, they share and compete for the common network resources. A rate allocation algorithm must balance the available resou...
In this paper, we propose new sampling schemes for classes of 2-D signals with finite rate of innovation (FRI). In particular, we consider sets of 2-D Diracs and bilevel polygons....
We propose a high-performance, nonlinear, loop filter that reduces quantization noise over video frames composed of locally uniform regions (smooth, high frequency, texture, etc.)...
This paper presents a distortion optimized streaming algorithm for on-demand streaming of multimedia. Given the pre-encoded packets of a multimedia stream, we propose a fast algor...
In this paper, a hybrid medical image segmentation approach is proposed based on a dual front evolution and fast sweeping evolution. This approach is composed of two stages. In th...
Background subtraction is a popular algorithm for video object segmentation. It identifies foreground objects by comparing the input images with a pure background image. In camera...
In this paper, we use a robust shape matching algorithm for stablishing correspondences between points from face images, and Gabor vectors (jets) for feature computation. After ex...
In this paper, we present a new entropy coder, Contextbased Bit Plane Golomb Coder (CB-BPGC) for scalable image coding, which achieves better coding performance with lower complex...
Recently, a novel approach to pattern matching was introduced, which reduces time complexity by two orders of magnitude over traditional approaches. It uses an efficient projectio...
