Image segmentation is an important process of image analysis. Most of the published approaches for image segmentation need to set appropriate parameter values to cope with the unc...
Decentralized Markov decision processes are frequently used to model cooperative multi-agent systems. In this paper, we identify a subclass of general DEC-MDPs that features regul...
Multi-reference frame motion estimation improves the accuracy of motion compensation in video coding. However, it also increases computational complexity dramatically. In this pap...
The image compression standard JPEG 2000 offers a high compression ef ciency as well as a great exibility in the way it accesses the content in terms of spatial location, quality ...
