—This paper introduces a new high-rate analysis of the multiple description scalar quantizer (MDSQ) with balanced descriptions. The analysis provides insight into the structure o...
We consider symmetric multiple description coding for the Gaussian source, and provide upper and lower bounds for the individual description rate-distortion function. One of the m...
Process descriptions are used in workflow and related systems to describe the flow of work and organisational responsibility in business processes, and to aid in coordination. How...

Multiple description coding (MDC) is source coding for multiple channels such that a decoder which receives an arbitrary subset of the channels may produce a useful reconstruction...
A qualitative image description grammar with automatic image fitting and object modelling algorithms is presented. The grammar is based on assigning a square sub-region of an imag...
