Fast Block Sequential Decoding of Polar Codes

Kirill Ivanov

A reduced complexity sequential decoding algorithm for polar (sub) codes is described. The proposed approach relies on a decomposition of the polar (sub) code being decoded into a number of outer codes, and on-demand construction of codewords of these code ...

Compression of Multispectral Images: Color (RGB) plus Near-Infrared (NIR)

Sabine Süsstrunk, Zahra Sadeghipoor Kermani, Neda Salamati

We propose a compression framework for four-channel images, composed of color (RGB) and near-infrared (NIR) channels, which exploits the correlation between the visible and the NIR information. The high-frequency components of both visible and NIR scene re ...

Space-frequency quantization for image compression with directionlets

Martin Vetterli, Vladan Velisavljevic

The standard separable 2-D wavelet transform (WT) has recently achieved a great success in image processing because it provides a sparse representation of smooth images. However, it fails to efficiently capture 1-D discontinuities, like edges or contours. ...

On the Use of Masking Models for Image and Audio Watermarking

Justin Picard, Arnaud Robert

In most watermarking systems, masking models, inherited from data compression algorithms, are used to preserve fidelity by controlling the perceived distortion resulting from adding the watermark to the original signal. So far, little attention has been pa ...
