Although an all-in-focus image can be generated by mosaicking all the best focused regions of a sequence of acquired images taken under different focal settings, an even betterres...
In live peer-to-peer streaming, a video stream is transmitted to a large population of viewers, through the use of the uplink bandwidth of participating peers. This approach overc...
Vector representation of binary images has an advantage of keeping high image quality for arbitrary scaling as well as editing capability of an object. However, the vector represe...
1 This paper addresses the problem of side information generation in distributed video compression (DVC) schemes. Intermediate frames constructed by motioncompensated interpolation...
A novel local blur estimation method is presented in the paper. Focal blur process is usually modeled as a Gaussian low-pass filtering and then the problem of blur estimation is t...
This paper studies the transmission of images encoded using an embedded source encoder over a wireless network allowing user cooperation. A dynamic programming algorithm is applie...
A new approach of tracking objects in image sequences is proposed, in which the constant changes of the size and orientation ofthe target can be precisely described. For each inco...
The knowledge of material specific film grain characteristics can significantly improve the performance of digital film processing algorithms. This paper proposes a rapid and reli...
In motion-compensated wavelet based video coders (MCWT), it is known that a precise motion estimation is necessary to minimize the wavelet coefficients energy. However, a motion v...
This paper addresses the problem of low-latency robust video delivery over packet networks characterized by a bursty loss process. We propose a joint source-channel coding based v...
