Using the concepts of two-dimensional Hilbert transform and analytic signal, we construct a new quaternion wavelet transform (QWT). The QWT forms a tight frame and can be efficien...
In this paper, we present a novel approach to vectorize elliptic arcs for 3D pie chart recognition and data extraction. As a preprocessing step, a set of straight line segments ar...
Over the years, researchers in the image analysis community have successfully used various statistical modeling methods to segment, classify, and annotate digital images. In this ...
In this paper, we discuss how to apply the rate distortion technique to select the optimal mode in the scalable coding. Firstly, we analyze this problem from a general scalable mo...
In this paper, we present a novel PDE based error concealment algorithm. We formulate the error concealment problem as a sequential optimization problem with both smoothing and or...
