Lossy and lossless compression for color-quantized images
An efficient compression scheme for color-quantized images based on progressive coding of color informationhas been developed. Rather than sorting color indexes into a linear list...

Optimal radial contour tracking by dynamic programming
A common problem in most active contour methods is that the recursive searching scheme can only return a local optimal solution. Furthermore, the internal energy of the snake is n...

VISMap: an interactive image/video retrieval system using visualization and concept maps
Images and videos can be indexed by multiple features at different levels, such as color, texture, motion, and text annotation. Organizing this information into a system so that u...

Robust estimation of depth and motion using stochastic approximation
The problemof structurefrom motion (SFM)is to extract the three-dimensionalmodel of a moving scene from a sequence of images. Though two images are sufficient to produce a 3D reco...

A hierarchical image authentication watermark with improved localization and security
Several fragile watermarking schemes presented in the literature are either vulnerable to vector quantization (VQ) counterfeiting attacks or sacrifice localization accuracy to imp...

On the estimation of spectral data: a genetic algorithm approach
Spectral data estimation from image data is an ill-posed problem since (i) due to the integral nature of solid-state light sensors the same output can be obtained from an infinity...

The curvelet transform for image denoising
We describe approximate digital implementations of two new mathematical transforms, namely, the ridgelet transform [3] and the curvelet transform [7, 6]. Our implementations offer...

Multi-level watermarking with independent decoding
A drawback of most watermarking techniques is the need for some additional information in order to retrieve the watermark. Additionally, the robustness of the watermark decreases ...
