In this paper, we describe a statistical method to detect highlights in a baseball game video. The input video is first segmented into scene shots, within which the camera motion ...
In this paper, we present a novel information theoretic approach to image segmentation. We cast the segmentation problem as the maximization of the mutual information between the ...

A new approach to multichannel image compression is introduced where the intra- and cross-band correlations are jointly exploited in a surprisingly simple yet very effective manner...
Recently a class of multiscale stochastic models has been introducedin which Gaussian random processes are described by scale-recursive dynamics that are indexed by the nodes of a...

We present the design of Scoop, a system for indexing and querying stored data in sensor networks. Scoop works by collecting statistics about the rate of queries and distribution ...
