Abstract—In this paper, we propose an optimal quadtree (QT)based motion estimator for video compression. It is optimal in the sense that for a given bit budget for encoding the d...
We propose a new global registration method for estimating the cardiac displacement field in 2D sequences of ultrasound images of the heart. The basic idea is to select a referenc...
In this work, by using the local node refinement technique purposed in [2, 1], and a quad-tree type algorithm [3, 13], we built a global refinement technique for Kansa's unsy...
Planar motion models can provide gross motion estimation and good segmentation for image pairs with large inter-frame disparity. However, as the disparity becomes larger, the resul...
In this paper we present a symmetry-based approach which can be used to detect humans and to extract biometric characteristics from video image-sequences. The method employs a simp...
