Music query-by-humming is a challenging problem since the humming query inevitably contains much variation and inaccuracy. Many of the previous methods, which adopt note segmentat...
This study examines the feasibility of using channel statistics to perform embedded signature-based authentication. Doing so is an attempt to view a reference watermark embedded w...
—Matrix factorization methods are now widely used to recover 3D structure from 2D projections [1]. In practice, the observation matrix to be factored out has missing data, due to...
Abstract— This paper discusses encryption operations that selectively encrypt content-carrying segments of multimedia data stream. We propose and analyze three techniques that wo...
Abstract—We present the query-by-description (QBD) component of “Kandem,” a time-aware music retrieval system. The QBD system we describe learns a relation between descriptiv...
—This paper presents an operational rate-distortion (ORD) optimal approach for skeleton-based boundary encoding. The boundary information is first decomposed into skeleton and di...
