The organ segmentation in computed tomography (CT) examination is a tedious and error prone task. The local similarity of the pixels from different organs, and the differences between the pixels of the same organ observed ...

Developing real time multimedia applications for best effort networks such as the Internet requires prohibitions against jitter delay and frame loss. This problem is further complicated in wireless networks as the rate of ...

Scalable video coding (SVC) and multiple description coding (MDC) are the two different adaptation schemes for video transmission over heterogenous and best-effort networks such as the Internet. We present a new approach ...
