— The design of the optimal codebook for a given codebook size and input source is a challenging puzzle that remains to be solved. The key problem in optimal codebook design is h...
Abstract— This paper reports a novel method for fully automated segmentation that is based on description of shape and its variation using point distribution models (PDM’s). An...
—Spatially varying focal length fan-beam collimators can be used in single photon emission computed tomography to improve detection efficiency and to reduce reconstruction artif...
IP traffic on the Internet and private enterprise networks has been growing exponentially for some time. This growth is beginning to stress the traditional, processor based design...
The new video-coding standard MPEG-4 enables content-based functionality, as well as high coding efficiency, by taking into account shape information of moving objects. A novel alg...
