We propose a novel approach to shape-based image retrieval that builds upon a similarity criterion which is based on the average point set distance. Compared to traditional techni...
In this paper we present an online method for managing a goaloriented buffer partitioning in the distributed memory of a network of workstations. Our algorithm implements a feedba...
The detection of abrupt shot changes ("cuts") in videos is a basic step in video content analysis. Many cut detection algorithms based on histogram differences have been...
Minimum-entropy decoding is a universal decoding algorithm used in decoding block compression of discrete memoryless sources as well as block transmission of information across di...
In this paper, we present a family of new algorithms for rate-fidelity optimal packetization of scalable source bit streams with uneven error protection. In the most general settin...
