We address the problem of fast and accurate localization of miniature surgical instruments like needles or electrodes using 3D ultrasound (US). An algorithm based on maximizing a ...
We introduce a new image compression algorithm that allows progressive image reconstruction – both in resolution and in fidelity, with a fully embedded bitstream. The algorithm ...
Many photo agencies use the web to sell access to their image collections. Despite significant security measures, images may be stolen and distributed, making it necessary to det...
This paper describes a method for quickly and robustly localizing the iris and pupil boundaries of a human eye in close-up images. Such an algorithm can be critical for iris ident...
This paper presents an algorithm that detects and tracks marine vessels in video taken by a non-stationary camera installed on an untethered buoy. 1 The video is characterized by ...
