In this work, we study the extraction of semantic objects using morphological tools. We decompose the image into its level sets and level lines (the borders of the level sets). Sp...
In this paper we present the behavior of JPEG2000 coding scheme over noisy or congested communication channels and highlight the cost analysis aspect. Two error schemes are consid...

In this paper, we propose an efficient low complexity compression scheme for densely sampled irregular 3D meshes. This scheme is based on 3D multiresolution analysis (3D Discrete ...
In this paper we evaluate the effectiveness of two likelihood normalization techniques, the Background Model Set (BMS) and the Universal Background Model (UBM), for improving perf...
This paper addresses the problem of deriving measures that express the degree of the reliability of motion vectors estimated by a Block Matching motion estimation method. We expre...

A method for segmenting and recognizing text embedded in video and images is proposed in this paper. In the method, multiple segmentation of the same text region is performed, thu...
Digital watermarking is equivalent to bandlimited, powerlimited digital communication. The power limit is due to the requirement of imperceptible watermarks, and has long been rec...
This paper describes an expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm for wavelet-based image restoration (deconvolution). The observed image is assumed to be a convolved (e.g., blurred...
Most of the watermarking schemes that have been proposed until now employ a correlator in the detection stage. The current paper proposes a new detector scheme that can be applied...
