Natural images are often modeled through piecewise-smooth regions. Region edges, which correspond to the contours of the objects, become, in this model, the main information of the signal. Contours have the property of being smooth functions along the dire ...
We present a study of the in-camera image processing through an extensive analysis of more than 10,000 images from over 30 cameras. The goal of this work is to investigate if image values can be transformed to physically meaningful values, and if so, when ...

Vision sensor networks and video cameras find widespread usage in several applications that rely on effective representation of scenes or analysis of 3D information. These systems usually acquire multiple images of the same 3D scene from different viewpoin ...
The efficient realization of linear space-variant (non-convolution) filters is a challenging computational problem in image processing. In this paper, we demonstrate that it is possible to filter an image with a Gaussian-like elliptic window of varying siz ...
New breakthroughs in image coding possibly rely in signal decomposition through non-separable basis functions. The work proposed in this paper provides an adaptive way of representing images as a sum of two-dimensional features. It presents a low bit-rate ...
We introduce a new semi-orthogonal complex wavelet basis of L2(R2 ). The basis functions are associated to the complex gradient-Laplace operator, which plays a central role in image processing. We define analytically a single- ...
Since its invention in the 19th century, photography has allowed to create durable images of the world around us by capturing the intensity of light that flows through a scene, first analogically by using light-sensitive material, and then, with the advent ...
Based on the class of complex gradient-Laplace operators, we show the design of a non-separable two-dimensional wavelet basis from a single and analytically defined generator wavelet function. The wavelet decomposition is implemented by an efficient FFT-ba ...
This thesis focuses on the development of novel multiresolution image approximations. Specifically, we present two kinds of generalization of multiresolution techniques: image reduction for arbitrary scales, and nonlinear approximations using other metrics ...
