In this paper, we propose a new seamless bitstream switching scheme to improve the coding performance ofH.264 SP-frames for rate adaptation. Our method removes one of the two requ...
A new architecture for region of interest (ROI) image coding is proposed. ROIs are defined as image regions containing objects of interest, and an efficient algorithm proposed for...
Most change detection methods are based on gray-level images. A gray-level image is regarded as a 1-D projection of three channels of color images. Therefore, more precise change ...
Many recently proposed perceptual image quality assessment algorithms are implemented in two stages. In the first stage, image quality is evaluated within local regions. This resu...
The capability of creating video data from MRI has many advantages in visualization for medical practitioners, including (i) not subjecting patients to harmful radiations, (ii) be...

This paper proposes to combine spatial and color coherency with the pixel-wise GMM to determine the background model. We first represent each pixel with a hybrid feature vector, w...
1 The compression efficiency of Distributed Video-Coding2 (DVC) suffers from the necessity of transmitting a large num-3 ber of key-frames which are intra-coded. This paper describ...
This paper describes a system for object segmentation and feature extraction for surveillance video. Segmentation is performed by a dynamic vision system that fuses information fr...
From time to time, state-of-the-art contrast enhancement algorithms face undesired drawbacks, like loss of tiny details, enhancement of image noise, occasional overenhancement, an...
The substitution of physical bank check exchange by electronic check image transfer brings agility, security and cost reduction to the clearing system. In this paper, we propose a...
