Detection of the Groove Position in Phonographic Images
The sound of phonographic records is contained in the radial position of the groove (and sometimes also its depth). The sound is usually extracted by a mechanical device (the styl...

Background Modeling Based on Subpixel Edges
We propose an approach to model the background of images in a video sequence based on subpixel edge map. This work is motivated by the observation that intensity based background ...

A General Two-Dimensional Hidden Markov Model and its Application in Image Classification
In this paper, we propose a general two-dimensional hidden Markov model (2D-HMM), where dependency of the state transition probability on any state is allowed as long as causality...

Characterizing packet-loss impairments in compressed video
— We examine metrics to predict the visibility of packet losses in MPEG-2 and H.264 compressed video. We use subjective data that has a wide range of parameters, including differ...
