This paper presents an efficient VLSI architecture design of MPEG-4 shape coding, which is the key technology for supporting the content-based functionality of the MPEG-4 Video sta...
Compressed video bitstreams require protection from channel errors in a wireless channel. The threedimensional (3-D) SPIHT coder has proved its efficiency and its real-time capabi...
As technological advances are made in software and hardware, the feasibility of accessing information "any time, anywhere" is becoming a reality. Furthermore, the diversi...
The problem of question/answering (Q/A) is to find answers to open-domain questions by searching large collections of documents. Unlike information retrieval systems, very common ...
