Model-based Sensor Data Acquisition and Management

Karl Aberer, Saket Sathe, Ho Young Jeung

In recent years, due to the proliferation of sensor networks, there has been a genuine need of researching techniques for sensor data acquisition and management. To this end, a large number of techniques have emerged that advocate model-based sensor data a ...

Retrieval of occluded images using DCT phase and region merging

Pierre-André Farine, Sara Grassi Pauletti, Pradyumna Ayyalasomayajula

In this paper we present an efficient method for Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) of occluded images using DCT-phase. The proposed method utilizes a novel correlation metric for ternary-valued DCT-phase, as well as a region merging method to reconstruc ...

Data compression on the sphere

Yves Wiaux, Jason Douglas McEwen

Large data-sets defined on the sphere arise in many fields. In particular, recent and forthcoming observations of the anisotropies of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) made on the celestial sphere contain approximately three and fifty mega-pixels respe ...

Performance analysis of VP8 image and video compression based on subjective evaluations

Touradj Ebrahimi, Francesca De Simone, Jong Seok Lee, Lutz Goldmann

Today, several alternatives for compression of digital pictures and video sequences exist to choose from. Beside internationally recognized standard solutions, open access options like the VP8 image and video compression have recently appeared and are gain ...

Scalable Feature Extraction for Coarse-to-Fine JPEG2000 Image Classification

Pierre Vandergheynst, Christophe De Vleeschouwer, Benoît Macq

In this paper, we address the issues of analyzing and classifying JPEG 2000 code-streams. An original representation, called integral volume, is first proposed to compute local image features progressively from the compressed code-stream, on any spatial im ...

Analyzing Near-infrared Images for Utility Assessment

Sabine Süsstrunk, Zahra Sadeghipoor Kermani, Neda Salamati

Visual cognition is of significant importance in certain imaging applications, such as security and surveillance. In these applications, an important issue is to determine the cognition threshold, which is the maximum distortion level that can be applied t ...

Sparse Image Representation by Directionlets

Martin Vetterli, Vladan Velisavljevic, Pier Luigi Dragotti

Despite the success of the standard wavelet transform (WT) in image processing in recent years, the efficiency and sparsity of its representation are limited by the spatial symmetry and separability of its basis functions built in the horizontal and vertic ...

Polar Codes are Optimal for Lossy Source Coding

Rüdiger Urbanke, Satish Babu Korada

We consider lossy source compression of a binary symmetric source using polar codes and the low-complexity successive encoding algorithm. It was recently shown by Arikan that polar codes achieve the capacity of arbitrary symmetric binary-input discrete mem ...

On the Limits of Perceptually Optimized JPEG

Touradj Ebrahimi, Francesca De Simone, Lutz Goldmann, Denis Filimonov

The study presented in this paper aims at quantifying the empirical limits of JPEG optimization, when the compressed stream is standard compliant and only the quantization tables are optimized. Image-dependent quantization tables, which minimize the bitrat ...

Lossless Source Coding with Polar Codes

Satish Babu Korada, Harm Cronie

In this paper lossless compression with polar codes is considered. A polar encoding algorithm is developed and a method to design the code and compute the average compression rate for finite lengths is given. It is shown that the scheme achieves the optima ...
