In this paper we propose a method to retrieve sketches stored in the form of multiple strokes, by extracting the shape information for each stroke and by considering the spatial r...
Video transcoding is an efficient way for. rate adaptation and format conversion in various networked video applications. Many transcoder architectures have been proposed to achie...
Video segmentation is among the most important challenges of video processing and compression (MPEG-4 and MPEG-7). A drawback of classical methods is the computational cost due to...
Shift variance and poor directional selectivity, two major disadvantages of the discrete wavelet transform, have previously been circumvented either by using highly redundant, non...

In this paper we present a new descriptor for spatial distribution of motion activity in video sequences. We construct a histogram of areas of distinct regions (or "blobs&quo...
