Kernel functions are often cited as a mechanism to encode prior knowledge of a learning task. But it can be difficult to capture prior knowledge effectively. For example, we know ...
In this paper, we propose a method for extracting image features which utilizes 2 nd order statistics, i.e., spatial and orientational auto-correlations of local gradients. It enab...
It is now widely acknowledged that wavelets are not very effective in representing images containing distributed discontinuities such as edges. This paper deals with a new multisc...

We present a graph cuts-based image segmentation technique that incorporates an elliptical shape prior. Inclusion of this shape constraint restricts the solution space of the segm...
A novel scheme is proposed for the transmission of JPEG2000 image streams over wireless channels. The proposed scheme exploits the block-based coding structure of the JPEG2000 str...
