We present a 3D segmentation technique of trabecular (cancellous) bones in CT images of Vertebral bodies (VBs). In order to be used for Bone Mineral Density (BMD) measurements, th...
Interactive image segmentation is a powerful paradigm that allows users to direct the segmentation algorithm towards a desired output. However, marking scribbles on multiple image...
In this paper, security evaluation of an important watermarking class based on quantization is given. Theoretical developments and practical simulations are used to measure the se...
Alice and Bob possess sequences xn and yn respectively and would like to compute d(xn , yn ) where d(., .) is a distortion measure. However, Alice and Bob do not trust each other ...
The throughput of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Video-on-Demand (VoD) systems is typically capped by the users' aggregate upload bandwidth [1]. The drastic increase in the popularity of...
Suppression of ringing effect is a challenging problem. It is mainly caused by absence of effective methods of ringing artifact detection. In this paper we introduce a ringing est...
In video surveillance, the sizes of face images are very small. However, few works have been done to investigate scalerobust face recognition. Our experiments on appearancebased m...
We present a saliency-enhanced method for the classification of professional photos and snapshots. First, we extract the salient regions from an image by utilizing a visual salien...
We address the problem of robust appearance-based visual tracking. First, a set of simplified biologically inspired features (SBIF) is proposed for object representation and the B...
