This paper presents novel algorithms that perform motion estimation for video processing and compression. We observe that "smoothness" is a very important and intuitive ...
We describe a system for the texture-based direct volume visualization of large data sets on a PC cluster equipped with GPUs. The data is partitioned into volume bricks in object ...
A novel frequency-domain technique for image blocking artifact detection and reduction is presented in this paper. The algorithm first detects the regions of the image which presen...

The bidirectional texture function (BTF) describes rough texture appearance variations due to varying illumination and viewing conditions. Such a function consists of thousands of ...
In this paper, we propose a new technique for extracting salient regions in an image. Identification of salient regions is useful for region/object based image processing. Previous...
