MPEG-4 video object-based rate allocation with variable temporal rates
This paper describes a bit allocation algorithm that can achieve a constant bit rate when coding multiple video objects (MVO's), while improving the rate-distortion (R-D) per...

A two-stage multiple description video coder with drift-preventing motion compensated prediction
In this paper, we propose a very simple, but efficient two-stage MDC in the central prediction loop based on Reibman's threeprediction-loop structure [7]. In our design, an a...

Video frame alignment in multiple views
Many events are captured using multiple cameras today. Frames of each video stream have to be synchronized and aligned to a common time axis before processing them. Synchronizatio...

Eye detection using color cues and projection functions
We pmpose a heuristic approach for detection ofeyes in close-up images. The experimental images are stereorypiral mug shot faces which can be expected in applications offace recog...

Foveated image watermarking
The spatial resolution of the human visual system (HVS) decreases rapidly away from the point of fixation (foveation point). By exploiting this fact, we propose a watermarking app...

Overcomplete image coding using iterative projection-based noise shaping
Overcomplete transforms, like the Dual-Tree Complex Wavelet Transform, offer more flexible signal representations than criticallysampled transforms. Large numbers of transform coe...
