The k-distance transformation (k-DT) computes the k nearest patterns from each location on a discrete regular grid within a D dimensional volume, which Warfield [Patt. Rec. Letters, 17(1996) 713-721] proposed to implement using 2^D raster scans. We investi ...
This paper addresses the problem of sensing or recovering a signal s, captured by distributed low-complexity sensors. Each sensor observes a noisy version of the signal of interest, and independently forms an approximant of its observation. This approximan ...
We address the problem of joint path selection and rate allocation in multipath streaming in order to optimize a media specific quality of service. An optimization problem is proposed, which aims at minimizing a video distortion metric based on sequence-de ...
In handsfree tele or video conferencing acoustic echoes arise due to the coupling between the loudspeaker and microphone. Usually an acoustic echo canceler (AEC) is used for eliminating the undesired echoes. The weaknesses of AEC are that it is relatively ...
We propose a new exact Euclidean distance transformation (DT) by propagation, using bucket sorting. A fast but approximate DT is first computed using a coarse neighborhood. A sequence of larger neighborhoods is then used to gradually improve this approxima ...
Medical image processing is a demanding domain, both in terms of CPU and memory requirements. The volume of data to be processed is often large (a typical MRI dataset requires 10 MBytes) and many processing tools are only useful to the physician if they ar ...
We present a general framework and an efficient algorithm for tracking relevant video structures. The structures to be tracked are implicitly defined by a Matching Pursuit procedure that extracts and ranks the most important image contours. Based on the ra ...
In this paper, we present an algorithm for finding all common bases in two matroids. Our algorithm lists all common bases by using pivot operations in such a way that each basis appears exactly once. The time complexity of the algorithm is O(n(n^2+t)§) whe ...
In this paper, we address the design of any number of balanced descriptions using multiple description scalar quantization (MDSQ), based on fast index assignment. The proposed scheme has the advantages of low complexity, and the possibility of being extend ...
