Blocking artifact is the most prevailing degradation caused by block-based DCT coding techniques under low bit-rate conditions. To alleviate blockings perceptually, it is desirabl...
Automatic counting of people, entering or exiting a region of interest, is very important for both business and security applications. This paper introduces an automatic and robus...
— A new rate control algorithm for the H.264 encoder is developed in this work. There are several unique features in the proposed rate control scheme. First, a two-stage encoding...
— A pan-tilt-zoom robotic camera can provide detailed live video of selected areas of interest within a large potential viewing field. To provide spatial context for human obser...
We propose a new semi-supervised model selection method that is derived by applying the structural risk minimization principle to a recent semi-supervised generalization error bou...
