NOVELTY - The watermark is made imperceptible, e.g. invisible or inaudible, by inserting it into selected parts of the data that are neither significant nor insignificant perceptually. Examples for the domain of embedding are complex Fourier coefficients a ...
Motivated by the fractal-like behavior of natural images, we propose a new smoothing technique that uses a regularization functional which is a fractional iterate of the Laplacian. This type of functional has previously been introduced by Duchon in the con ...
I. Introduction Wavelets are the result of collective efforts that recognized common threads between ideas and concepts that had been independently developed and investigated by distinct research communities. They provide a unifying framework for decompos ...
In this paper we present first experimental results with a novel audio coding technique based on approximating Hilbert envelopes of relatively long segments of audio signal in critical-band-sized sub-bands by autoregressive model. We exploit the generalize ...
We address the problem of distributed compression in acoustic sensor networks. A typical scenario consists of a set of microphones that record a sound source located at some unknown position. The goal then is to convey the corresponding audio signals to a ...
In this report we propose a new coding scheme based on the Matching Pursuit algorithm and exploiting some of the new features introduced by H.264 for motion estimation. Main points of this work are the design of a redundant dictionary suitable for coding d ...
Many applications of fast Fourier transforms (FFTs), such as computer tomography, geophysical signal processing, high-resolution imaging radars, and prediction filters, require high-precision output. An error analysis reveals that the usual method of fixed ...
Musical and audio signals in general form a major part of the large amount of data exchange taking place in our information-based society. Transmission of high quality audio signals through narrow-band channels, such as the Internet, requires refined metho ...
In the present article we give a full quantitative analysis of the multichromatic moire effects in the superposition of coloured periodic layers, which is based both on the Fourier theory and on the theory of colorimetry and colour vision. This is done by ...
