Anisotropic diffusion has been widely used in image processing for its efficiency of smoothing the noisy images while preserving the sharp edges. In this paper we will explore a g...
This paper proposes a unified efficient and universal scalable video coding framework that supports different scalabilities, such as fine granularity quality, temporal, spatial an...

Reliable transmission of video over wireless networks must address the limited bandwidth and the possibility of loss. When the bandwidth is insufficient on a single channel, the v...
In this paper, we present an object contour tracking approach using graph cuts based active contours (GCBAC). Our proposed algorithm does not need any a priori global shape model,...
In this paper, we propose and analyze a routing protocol for mobile ad hoc networks that supports efficient image retrieval based on metadata queries. In digital photography, meta...
We describe an algorithm for computing an image signature, suitable for first-stage screening for duplicate images. Our signature relies on relative brightness of image regions, a...
The topic of this paper is the integration of Expectation Maximization (EM) background modeling and template matching using color histograms as templates to improve person trackin...
