Application Of Inversions To Lossless Image Compression, Ziya Arnavut

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering: Faculty Publications

Linear prediction schemes, such as that of the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG), are simple and normally produces a residual sequence with lower zero-order entropy. Occasionally the entropy of the prediction error becomes greater than that of the original image. Such situations frequently occur when the image data have discrete gray levels located within certain intervals. To alleviate this problem, various authors have suggested different preprocessing methods. However, the techniques reported require two passes. We extend the definition of Lehmer-type inversions (Lehmer 1960 and 1964) from permutations to multiset permutations and present a one-pass algorithm based on inversions of a …

Implications Of A Feminist Narratology: Temporality, Focalization And Voice In The Films Of Julie Dash, Mona Smith And Trinh T. Minh-Ha, Jennifer Alyce Machiorlatti

Wayne State University Dissertations

This dissertation conducts feminist narrative textual analysis of films by three independent women film-makers-of- color: Julie Dash, Mona Smith and Trinh T. Minh-ha. The research utilizes traditional cinematic narratological methods combined with a feminist perspective. Narratology is the structural/textual study of narrative organization, style and content. Feminism is a theoretical body of inquiry which lends implications of gender difference, power relationships, cinematic stereotypes, and cultural significance to textual analysis. Feminist inquiry contributes a social, cultural, ideological and historical perspective to the taxomony of a structuralist narrative methodology. By combining this contextual perspective with a topological textual method, I propose consideration …

Motion Estimation And Video Coding, Xiaochun Xia

Dissertations

Over the last ten years. research on the analysis of visual motion has come to play a key role in the fields of data compression for visual communication as well as computer vision. Enormous efforts have been made on the design of various motion estimation algorithms.

One of the fundamental tasks in motion estimation is the accurate measurement of 2-D dense motion fields. For this purpose. we devise and present in this dissertation a multiattribute feedback computational framework. In this framework for each pixel in an image. instead of a single image intensity. multiple image attributes are computed as conservation …

Image Compression And Signal Classification By Neural Networks And Projection Pursuits, M. Fardanesh, O. K. Ersoy

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

In this report, two applications of neural networks are investigated. The first one is low bit rate image compression by using neural networks and projection pursuit. The second one is improving the classification accuracy of neural network classifiers by using unlabeled data. In the first part, a novel approach for low bit rate image coding is presented. The image is compressed by first quadtree segmenting the image into blocks of different sizes based on two activity measures , and then constructing a distinct code for each block by invokin~gth e theory of projection pursuit. The two activity measures used in …

On the Green is an internal publication of Gallaudet College, which later became Gallaudet University. It notified employees of updates around the campus and in the broader community, including new construction and the establishment of new academic programs. Running until 2010, it was supplanted by various forms of online mass communications across multiple audiences.

A Declarative Approach To Understanding Program Behavior Through Program Visualization, Aggie Yee-Chun Sun, Bruce M. Mcmillin

Computer Science Technical Reports

A method is proposed to analyze the behavior of sequential algorithms. Most current methodologies are in the form of semantic analysis, domain decomposition or fixed point approximation. These tools, though useful in design, verification and testing, are not general enough to characterize the behavior at run-time without the aid of a correct set of specifications. In addition, a thorough understanding of the program and of the mathematical notations are necessary to use these tools effectively. The methodology described in this thesis is a general purpose tool which addresses and alleviates the problem of having to be an applications expert by …
