Native multicast routing protocols have been built and deployed using two basic types of trees: singlesource, shortest-path trees and shared, core-based trees. Core-based multicas...
Region-based functionality offered by the MPEG-4 video compression standard is also appealing for still images, for example to permit object-based queries of a still-image database...
Abstract--We propose a fully three-dimensional (3-D) object-based coding system exploiting the diagnostic relevance of the different regions of the volumetric data for rate allocat...
Abstract--We propose an approach to accurately detecting twodimensional (2-D) shapes. The cross section of the shape boundary is modeled as a step function. We first derive a one-d...
The entanglement-assisted classical capacity of a noisy quantum channel ( ) is the amount of information per channel use that can be sent over the channel in the limit of many uses...
