The accuracy of a model to forecast a time series diminishes as the prediction horizon increases, in particular when the prediction is carried out recursively. Such decay is faster...
Global color characterization is a very powerful tool to model in a simple yet discriminant way the visual appearance of complex objects. A fixed reference model of this type can ...
New video codink standards such as H.264 offer the flexibility to select from a number of reference frames for motion-estimation for a given predicted frame. In this paper, we pro...
A method for efficiently selecting the operating modes within a block-based multi-mode video compression system is described. For a given image region, the optimum combination of ...
