In this paper, we present a fast mode decision algorithm for H.264/AVC intra prediction. The goal of this work is to reduce computational complexity of the H.264 encoder without s...
This paper presents a novel non-iterative method to restore the out-of-focus part of an image. The proposed method first applies a robust local blur estimation to obtain a blur ma...
Gait can be easily acquired at a distance, so it has become a popular biometric especially in intelligent visual surveillance. In gait-based human identification there are many fa...
The H.264/AVC provides gains in compression efficiency of up to 50% over a wide range of bit rates and video resolutions compared to previous standards. However, these features inc...
Model reduction of large-scale linear time-invariant systems is an ubiquitous task in control and simulation of complex dynamical processes. We discuss how LQG balanced truncation ...
