Secrecy by Design With Applications to Privacy and Compression

Yanina Yurina Shkel

Secrecy by design is examined as an approach to information-theoretic secrecy. The main idea behind this approach is to design an information processing system from the ground up to be perfectly secure with respect to an explicit secrecy constraint. The pr ...

High-Throughput Lossy-to-Lossless 3D Image Compression

Gilles Fourestey, Félix Schmidt

The rapid increase in medical and biomedical image acquisition rates has opened up new avenues for image analysis, but has also introduced formidable challenges. This is evident, for example, in selective plane illumination microscopy where acquisition rat ...

Performance Evaluation of Objective Image Quality Metrics on Conventional and Learning-Based Compression Artifacts

Touradj Ebrahimi, Evgeniy Upenik, Michela Testolina

Lossy image compression is a popular, simple and effective solution to reduce the amount of data representing digital pictures. In most lossy compression methods, the reduced volume of data in bits is achieved at the expense of introducing visual artifacts ...

Large-Scale Crowdsourcing Subjective Quality Evaluation of Learning-Based Image Coding

Touradj Ebrahimi, Evgeniy Upenik, Michela Testolina

Learning-based image codecs produce different compression artifacts, when compared to the blocking and blurring degradation introduced by conventional image codecs, such as JPEG, JPEG~2000 and HEIC. In this paper, a crowdsourcing based subjective quality e ...

Multi-scale sequential network for semantic text segmentation and localization

Jean-Marc Odobez, Olivier Canévet, Michael Villamizar

We present a novel method for semantic text document analysis which in addition to localizing text it labels the text in user-defined semantic categories. More precisely, it consists of a fully-convolutional and sequential network that we apply to the part ...

Dissipative dispersion-managed solitons in fiber-optic systems with lumped amplification

Anton Lukashchuk

We numerically and experimentally studied the shape of the dissipative dispersion-managed solitons (DM-solitons) stably propagating over the lossy DM fiber-optic systems with lumped amplification. We found that, contrary to the lossless case, the chirp-fre ...

Compression and visual quality assessment for light field contents

Irene Viola

Since its invention in the 19th century, photography has allowed to create durable images of the world around us by capturing the intensity of light that flows through a scene, first analogically by using light-sensitive material, and then, with the advent ...
