An original approach to represent 2D and 3D faces using Radial Geodesic Distances (RGDs) is proposed in this work. In 3D, the RGD of a generic point of the face surface is compute...

The heterogeneity of handheld terminals in terms of screen resolution, processing capabilities or available decoding memory is a challenge for multimedia services that have been t...
Digital image/video coding standards such as JPEG, H.264 are becoming more and more important for multimedia applications. Due to the huge amount of computations, there are signif...
Distributed Video Coding (DVC) is based on a new paradigm in coding, which has received many interests recently. This paper proposes a hybrid spatial and temporal error concealmen...
In this paper, we derive an analytical model for the evaluation of the performance of a Video on Demand (VoD) system. The model estimates the mean waiting time achievable by the P...
In this paper, we propose an effective coarse-to-fine algorithm to detect text in video. Firstly, in coarse-detection section, stroke filter is employed to detect all candidate st...
In this paper, we present a novel attack named colorization attack. This attack is specific to color-hiding watermarking schemes. The objective of this work is to demonstrate the...
It is very challenging to de-interlace HD videos in real time, as both high efficiency and low complexity should be fulfilled, which, however, are conflicting. This paper prese...
This paper presents a reduced-reference image quality assessment scheme using distributed source coding for remotely monitoring image quality. In our scheme, an image server extra...
