Scalable error-resilient image- and videocoding
Abstract of the research project 1. Aim Today's modern multimedia applications have risen to a level of quality (see the graphical detail of virtual threedimensional scenes, or the HDTV or even cinema resolution of video content) that would have b...
EXPERTISE: Preparation of a strategic study of the Humanitarian demining prospects Europe-wide.
The European Union has chosen to concentrate its humanitarian demining strategy in support of the South Eastern Europe Stability Pact to remove the landmines and the unexploded ordnance that are the legacy of the recent Balkan conflict. To support th...
Compact Multiresolution data structures and hardware/software architectures for fast analysis of large image sets
Many IT industries (e.g. pre-press, electronic publishing, medical imaging, remote sensing, satellite imaging, aerial photography, cartography) shift towards full digital productions processes. Such production processes bring forward several tec...
Compression of images and videosequences
The purpose of this project is to investigate a large variety of applications requiring generic compression techniques, among which there are telecommunication and multimedia applications. Some of these applications require a high measurement precisi...
Development of a Multimedia Tutorial on Remote Sensing Image and Data Fusion
FUSETUTOR is a CDROM tutorial for image interpreters on image analysis for information retrieval in remotely sensed image data. ETRO-IRIS contributed to the development of this CDROM with two chapters: a chapter on image enhancement and a chapte...
Wavelet Compression of Images
The technological improvements in digital electronics and the significant cost reductions in digital imaging systems have triggered an increasing demand for handling images in digital form. Inevitably, digitised picture information exchange with incr...
Scientific Image Processing Systems Community
The research community is a network funded by FWO which includes the major Flemish university departments which are working in the domain of image processing: KUL, VUB, UA, IMEC, UG, LUC. The main goal of this network is the exchange of information b...
Adding images to an integrated multimedia patient record
The basic research and prototype developments of this project should lead to new developments in : (1) the integration of images into the patient medical record and (2) remote expert consultancy and image-based co-operation between experts....
System aspects of multimedia servers for telepublishing
The aim of this IWT project, organised by BARCO GRAPHICS, is to develop the software technology for operating a multi-media server for telepublishing applications. The server will be used primarily in pre-press and printing companies where ...
Sammie project - An advanced solution for the Euopean Medical intra-hospital market
SAMMIE (1/1/96 - 31/8/97) is geared for improving the telematics infrastructure in hospital departments. The objective of the SAMMIE project is to provide and test CLINWORKS, a multifunctional departmental system consisting of three main modules...
Parallel algorithms for image processing
Digital image processing tasks are highly computational intensive, because of the vast amount of data that must be processed, the real time character of many applications in this area as well as their complexity. This project proposes to carry out r...
Generic tools for digital image processing and computer vision
The research on 'Generic Tools' consists of the development of new image processing algorithms and of the (parameter) tuning of both new and existing algorithms, so that they can be applied on different types of images and in various applicatio...
Synthesis of Image and Speech Processing algorithms on silicon.
Aim is to make a comparative study of VLSI implementations of segmentation algorithms. A typical DIMA segmentation algorithm ((multi-)thresholding) has to be selected and a representative set of DDMA segmentation algorithms (eg. split-and&...
Television: Integration, management and processing of images for high-end applications
The 'TeleVision' project (IWT project IT GBO 202) targets generic research on using images in high-end applications (e.g. multi-media and telematics applications). The project is a close collaboration between the major Flemish univer...
Multi-dimensional image compression and restoration for quantative image analysis.
The current project is continuation of a 4 year project dedicated to the same subject. In the first phase of the project, we have concentrated on the common properties of image restoration, reconstruction and compression. The compression of still m...
