Large XML data files, or XML databases, are now a common way to distribute scientific and bibliographic data, and storing such data efficiently is an important concern. A number o...
Perceptual image quality metrics have explicitly accounted for perceptual characteristics of the human visual system (HVS) by modeling sensitivity to subband noise as the just-not...
Storing data in distributed systems aims to offer higher bandwidth and scalability than storing locally. But, a couple of disadvantageous issues must be taken into account such as...
This paper presents a streaming technique for synthetic texture intensive 3D animation sequences. There is a short latency time while downloading the animation, until an initial f...
This paper presents novel algorithms that perform motion estimation for video processing and compression. We observe that "smoothness" is a very important and intuitive ...
