Fingerprint matching is one of the most important modules in automatic fingerprint identification systems (AFIS). Traditional methods treat this problem as point pattern matching,...
Transmission of high quality video over the Internet faces many challanges including unpredictable packet loss characteristics of the current Internet and the heterogeneity of rec...
We propose a fast text/graphics resolution improvement algorithm with boundary parameterization and wavelet based denoising. Given input images containing labeled text/graphics ob...
This paper presents a robust scalable video coding scheme with leaky prediction, suitable for time-varying error-prone channels, such as the Internet or wireless channels. The pro...
The majority of methods available to recover 3D structure from video assume that a set of feature points are tracked across a large number of frames. This is not always possible i...
The theoretical foundations of data hiding have been revealed by formulating the problem as message communication over a noisy channel, i.e. the host document. In light of this de...
A new system for interactive streaming of high-resolution 360? panoramic views over the Internet is presented. The scene is represented very efficiently using MPEG-4 BIFS and disp...
