Privacy-Preserving Photo Sharing based on a Secure JPEG

Touradj Ebrahimi, Lin Yuan

Sharing photos online is a common activity on social networks and photo hosting platforms, such as Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram, or Flickr. However, after reports of citizens surveillance by governmental agencies and the scandalous leakage of celebrities ...

Using False Colors to Protect Visual Privacy of Sensitive Content

Touradj Ebrahimi

Many privacy protection tools have been proposed for preserving privacy. Tools for protection of visual privacy available today lack either all or some of the important properties that are expected from such tools. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a si ...

Image processing on reconfigurable hardware for continuous monitoring of fluorescent biomarkers in cell cultures

Julien Michel Ghaye

Fluorescence microscopy is a widespread tool in biological research. It is the primary modality for bioimaging and empowers the study and analysis of multitudes of biological processes. It can be applied to fixed biosamples, that is samples with frozen bio ...

Secure and Private Proofs for Location-Based Activity Summaries in Urban Areas

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Igor Bilogrevic, Kévin Clément Huguenin, Thi Van Anh Pham

Activity-based social networks, where people upload and share information about their location-based activities (e.g., the routes of their activities), are increasingly popular. Such systems, however, raise privacy and security issues: the service provider ...

Recovering Badly Exposed Objects From Digital Photos Using Internet Images

Stefan Winkler, Sabine Süsstrunk

In this paper we consider the problem of clipped-pixel recovery over an entire badly exposed image region, using two correctly exposed images of the scene that may be captured under different conditions. The first reference image is used to recover texture ...

Transformation-Invariant Analysis of Visual Signals with Parametric Models

Elif Vural

The analysis of collections of visual data, e.g., their classification, modeling and clustering, has become a problem of high importance in a variety of applications. Meanwhile, image data captured in uncontrolled environments by arbitrary users is very li ...

The PANOPTIC Camera: A Plenoptic Sensor with Real-Time Omnidirectional Capability

Alexandre Schmid, Yusuf Leblebici, Pierre Vandergheynst, Luigi Bagnato, Laurent Jacques, Hossein Afshari

A new biologically-inspired vision sensor made of one hundred "eyes" is presented, which is suitable for real-time acquisition and processing of 3-D image sequences. This device, named the Panoptic camera, consists of a layered arrangement of approximately ...

Context-dependent JPEG backward-compatible high-dynamic range image compression

Touradj Ebrahimi

High Dynamic Range (HDR) imaging is expected, together with ultra-high definition (UHD) and high frame rate (HFR) video, to become a technology that may change photo, TV, and film industries. Many cameras and displays capable of capturing and rendering bot ...

Semantic Awareness for Automatic Image Interpretation

Albrecht Johannes Lindner

Finding relations between image semantics and image characteristics is a problem of long standing in computer vision and related fields. Despite persistent efforts and significant advances in the field, today’s computers are still strikingly unable to achi ...

A New In-Camera Imaging Model for Color Computer Vision and its Application

Sabine Süsstrunk, Matthew Brown, Seungryong Kim

We present a study of the in-camera image processing through an extensive analysis of more than 10,000 images from over 30 cameras. The goal of this work is to investigate if image values can be transformed to physically meaningful values, and if so, when ...
