    In many applications, the amount and resolution of digi- tal images have significantly increased over the past few years. For this reason, there is a growing interest for techniques allowing to efficiently browse and seek information inside such huge data spaces. JPEG 2000, the latest compression standard from the JPEG committee, has several interesting features to handle very large images. In this paper, these fea- tures are used in a coarse-to-fine approach to retrieve specific information in a JPEG 2000 code-stream while minimizing the computational load required by such processing. Practically, a cascade of classifiers exploits the bit-depth and resolution scalability features intrinsically present in JPEG 2000 to progressively refine the classification process. Comparison with existing techniques is made in a texture-retrieval task and shows the efficiency of such approach

    This paper considers the remote interactive browsing of large JPEG2000 images. In contrast with previous contributions, we focus on the dynamic nature of the system. Practically, we study the conditions under which a priori knowledge about the user behavior may help to improve the browsing system reactivity, when combined with appropriate pre-fetching mechanisms. In particular, our simulations show that, due to the latency inherent to client/server exchanges, a benefit can be drawn by scheduling future window of interest (WoI) data before all current WoI data have been sent to the client. They also reveal that an accurate knowledge of the user behavior is not necessary to get important improvements over conventional scheduling approaches. 1. INTRODUCTION AND RELATE
