— In this paper a method for the fast determination of distortion-based optimal unequal error protection (UEP) of bitstreams generated by embedded image coders is described. The ...
It is well known that in professional TV show filming, stage lighting has to be carefully designed in order to make the host and the scene look visually appealing. The lighting a...
Spatial pooling strategies used in recent Image Quality Assessment (IQA) algorithms have generally been that of simply averaging the values of the obtained scores across the image...
Feature-based image watermarking schemes, which aim to survive various geometric distortions, have attracted great attention in recent years. Existing schemes have shown robustness...
This paper develops a new mask in the spatial domain for image watermarking. The mask exploits the properties of human visual system with respect to background luminance, the edge...
