We want to integrate colourfulness in an image quality evaluation framework. This quality framework is meant to evaluate the perceptual impact of a compression algorithm or an error prone communication channel on the quality of an image. The image might go ...
Semantic segmentation is generally associated with second generation video coders, or object-based coders. Object-based coders encode different video objects separately in order to achieve lower bitrates and to enable object-based functionalities. In this ...
This paper investigates video coding with wavelet transforms applied in the temporal direction of a video sequence. The wavelets are implemented with the lifting scheme in order to permit motion compensation between successive pictures. We improve motion c ...
In this paper, we discuss a framework for the distributed compression of vector sources, based on our previous work on distributed transform coding. In particular, our goal is to develop a strategy of first applying a suitable distributed Karhunen-Loeve tr ...
This paper presents a fast and robust algorithm to identify text in image or video frames with complex backgrounds and compression effects. The algorithm first extracts the candidate text line on the basis of edge analysis, baseline location and heuristic ...

The compression of visual information in the framework of multimedia applications is discussed. To this end, major approaches to compress still as well as moving pictures are reviewed. The most important objective in any compression algorithm is that of co ...
Granular noise is visually bothersome with respect to high quality rendition, and it is a well known source of visual artifacts for coding algorithms. This work considers the application of nonlinear filtering techniques to granular noise reduction and the ...
Digital images are becoming increasingly successful thanks to the development and the facilitated access to systems permitting their generation (i.e. camera, scanner, imaging software, etc). A digital image basically corresponds to a 2D discrete set of reg ...
Multimedia services, audiovisual applications composed of a combination of discrete and continuous data streams, will be a major part of the traffic flowing in the next generation of high speed networks. The cornerstones for multimedia are Asynchronous Tra ...
