Multimedia retrieval is going to play an increasingly important role in the future. Since the availability of digital media seems ever rising, not only the retrieval performance i...
This paper presents an efficient compression-oriented segmentation algorithm for computer-generated document images. In this algorithm, a document image is represented in a block-...
Abstract. At CRYPTO 2003, Rubin and Silverberg introduced the concept of torus-based cryptography over a finite field. We extend their setting to the ring of integers modulo N. W...
In many situations it is convenient to represent pictorial data in the form of contours. It may become necessary to compress such contour data for efficient storage and transmissi...
In this paper, we present a new coding scheme for depth maps using a hierarchical decomposition. After we decompose a depth map into three disjoint images and a layer descriptor a...
