5th International Symposium on Visual Computing, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA, Nov 30 - Dec 2, 2009 The goal of lossy image compression ought to be reducing entropy while preserving the...
In Chinese texts, words composed of single or multiple characters are not separated by spaces, unlike most western languages. Therefore Chinese word segmentation is considered an ...
Similarity search in database systems is becoming an increasingly important task in modern application domains such as multimedia, molecular biology, medical imaging, computer aid...

The support of variable block-sizes, though significantly improves the compression efficiency, imposes a big computational challenge on an H.264 encoder. In this paper, we present...
We propose an efficient method that applies directed soft arc consistency to a Distributed Constraint Optimization Problem (DCOP) which is a fundamental framework of multi-agent ...
