Sherwood and Zeger proposed a source-channel coding system where the source code is an embedded bitstream and the channel code is a product code such that each row code is a conca...
Joint source-channel coding systems using scalable source codes and forward error correction allow reliable transmission of multimedia data over noisy channels. The performance of...
In this paper, we study unsupervised image segmentation using wavelet-domain hidden Markov models (HMMs). We first review recent supervised Bayesian image segmentation algorithms ...
The classical case of morphological segmentation is based on the watershed transform, constructed by flooding the gradient image, which is seen as a topographic surface, with cons...
We study, in this paper, the problem of denoising images/data which are defined over non-flat surfaces. This problem arises often in many medical imaging tasks. The Beltrami flow ...
Images typically contain smooth regions, which are easily compressed by linear transforms, and high activity regions (edges, textures), which are harder to compress. To compress t...

This paper introduces a level set methodology for the precise boundary localization of image objects within an indicated region, designed to be particularly robust against weak or...
In this paper, we propose a novel rate-distortion (R-D) optimized disparity based coding scheme for stereo images. This new scheme efficiently integrates the coding of the dispari...
