A recently adopted standard, the Mixed Raster Content (MRC) imaging model, represents compound images as a superposition of layers. Since layers are superimposed, large regions ma...
An embedded wavelet coder algorithm which adopts different threshold values in different subbands is proposed in this work. The new image coder, called the multi-threshold wavelet...
We consider the sensor broadcast problem: in our setup, sensors measure each one pixel of an image that unfolds over a field, and broadcast a rate constrained encoding of their me...
A method for efficiently selecting the operating modes within a block-based multi-mode video compression system is described. For a given image region, the optimum combination of ...

This paper presents an efficient compound image compression approach based on H.264/AVC intra coding. The text blocks are distinguished from the picture blocks and compressed with...
