In standard predictive video coders, intra-mode coding of macroblocks (MBs) provides packet loss resilience, at the cost of reduced compression efficiency. Conventional mode selec...
This paper presents a novel face-assisted video coding scheme to enhance the visual quality of the face regions in video telephony applications. A skin-color based face detection ...
Network data models are frequently used as a mechanism to describe the connectivity between spatial features in many emerging GIS applications (location-based services, transporta...

Many of the data sources used in stream query processing are known to exhibit bursty behavior. Data in a burst often has different characteristics than steady-state data, and ther...
The indexing technique commonly used for long strings, such as genomes, is the suffix tree, which is based on a vertical (intra-path) compaction of the underlying trie structure. ...
