—This paper considers the problem of detecting lines in speckle imagery, such as that produced by synthetic aperture radar (SAR) or ultrasound techniques. Using the physical prin...

— The design of the optimal codebook for a given codebook size and input source is a challenging puzzle that remains to be solved. The key problem in optimal codebook design is h...
—Imperfect transmission of block-coded images often results in lost blocks. A novel error concealment method called best neighborhood matching (BNM) is presented by using a speci...
Abstract—We use a multilevel dominant eigenvector estimation algorithm to develop a new run-length texture feature extraction algorithm that preserves much of the texture informa...
—We introduce a new geometrical framework based on which natural flows for image scale space and enhancement are presented. We consider intensity images as surfaces in the (x; I...
—In this work, we present a segmentation algorithm for color images that uses the watershed algorithm to segment either the twodimensional (2-D) or the three-dimensional (3-D) co...
Abstract—In this paper, we propose an optimal quadtree (QT)based motion estimator for video compression. It is optimal in the sense that for a given bit budget for encoding the d...
