In this paper, we present a new algorithm for solving the block matching problem which is independent of image content and is faster than other full-search methods. The method emp...
This paper proposes a new publishing system using PC and large-sized printer that can produce high quality printed matters comprising text, charts, and illustrations, etc. To cons...

We propose a new scheme for streaming media systems that combines Adaptive Media Playout (AMP) with ratedistortion optimized packet transmission. AMP, the clientcontrolled, adapti...
In this paper, we present a novel image interpolation method based on variational models with both smoothing and orientation constraints. By introducing the orientation constraint...
In this paper, we present a novel PDE based error concealment algorithm. We formulate the error concealment problem as a sequential optimization problem with both smoothing and or...
