Scaling attacks are well-known to be some of the most harmful strategies against quantization-based watermarking methods, as they can completely ruin the performance of the waterm...
DCT-based CODECs such as MPEG-4 Visual and H.263 "skip" many macroblocks during encoding of typical video sequences (i.e. no coded data is transmitted for these macroblo...
This paper addresses the problem of to what extent linear transformation can alleviate nonlinear distortion. We investigate a technique of global affine transformation (GAT) corre...
This paper describes an algorithm that efficiently groups line segments into perceptually salient contours in complex images. A measure of affinity between pairs of lines is used ...
—In this work, we present a segmentation algorithm for color images that uses the watershed algorithm to segment either the twodimensional (2-D) or the three-dimensional (3-D) co...
