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...

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...

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...
Biometric recognition refers to the process of matching an input biometric to stored biometric information. In particular, biometric verification refers to matching the live biome...

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...

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 transforms, like the Dual-Tree Complex Wavelet Transform, offer more flexible signal representations than criticallysampled transforms. Large numbers of transform coe...
