The near shift-invariance of the dual-tree complex wavelet transform revisited
The dual-tree complex wavelet transform (DTCWT) is an enhancement of the
conventional discrete wavelet transform (DWT) due to a higher degree of
shift-invariance and a greater directional selectivity, finding its
applications in signal and image processing. This paper presents a quantitative
proof of the superiority of the DTCWT over the DWT in case of modulated
wavelets.Comment: 15 page

Distributed coding of endoscopic video
Triggered by the challenging prerequisites of wireless capsule endoscopic video technology, this paper presents a novel distributed video coding (DVC) scheme, which employs an original hash-based side-information creation method at the decoder. In contrast to existing DVC schemes, the proposed codec generates high quality side-information at the decoder, even under the strenuous motion conditions encountered in endoscopic video. Performance evaluation using broad endoscopic video material shows that the proposed approach brings notable and consistent compression gains over various state-of-the-art video codecs at the additional benefit of vastly reduced encoding complexity
Demo : distributed video coding applications in wireless multimedia sensor networks
Novel distributed video coding (DVC) architectures developed by the IBBT DVC group realize state-of-the-art video coding efficiency under stringent energy restrictions, while supporting error-resilience and scalability. Therefore, these architectures are particularly attractive for application scenarios involving low-complexity energy-constrained wireless visual sensors. This demo presents the scenarios, which are considered to be the most promising areas of integration for IBBT's DVC systems, considering feasibility and commercial applicability
