A multiple description scalar quantization (MDSQ) based coding system can be regarded as a source coder (quantizer) followed by a channel coder, i.e. the combination of index and ...
Efficient compression algorithms generally use wavelet transforms. They try to exploit all the signal dependencies that can appear inside and across the different sub-bands of th...
This paper presents a discrete cosine transform (DCT)-based locally adaptive perceptual image coder, which discriminates between image components based on their perceptual relevanc...
The novel field of fluid lens cameras introduces unique image processing challenges. Intended for surgical applications, these fluid optics systems have improved miniaturizatio...
This paper presents a technique for the segmentation of anatomic structures in medical images using a topologically adaptable snakes model. The model is set in the framework of dom...
