The compression of still images by means of the discrete wavelet transform (DWT), adopted in the JPEG-2000 and MPEG-4 standards, is becoming more and more widespread because it yie...
The concentric mosaic offers a quick solution to construct a virtual copy of a real environment, and to navigate in that virtual environment. However, the huge amount of data asso...
We study a generative model in which hidden causes combine competitively to produce observations. Multiple active causes combine to determine the value of an observed variable thr...
We propose in this paper a backward-compatible multichannel audio codec. This codec represents a multichannel audio input signal by a down mix and parametric data. In order to enab...
This paper presents a Viterbi Decoder (VD) architecture for a programmable data transmission system, implemented using a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) device. This VD has b...
