In this paper, a new multiple description image coding scheme using directional lifting transform is proposed. The basic idea is to divide an image into two descriptions with quinc...
We propose a novel statistical descriptor, Multiple References Histogram Matrix (MRHM), for robust shape retrieval, especially for degraded shape images. For each shape image, MRHM...
Skin region detection plays an important role in a variety of applications such as face detection, adult image filtering and gesture recognition. To improve the accuracy and speed...
Abstract. In video coding standards, such as MPEG-4 and H.263, one important question is how to determine motion vectors for motion compensation in the INTER mode. Usually the sum ...
Abstract. Entropy coding is one of the most important techniques in video codec. Two main criteria to assess an entropy coder are coding efficiency and friendly realization charact...
