Popularization of online photo sharing brings people great convenience, but has also raised concerns for privacy. Researchers proposed various approaches to enable image privacy, most of which focus on encrypting or distorting image visual content. In this ...
Thanks to advancements in smart mobile devices and social media platforms, sharing photos and experiences has significantly bridged our lives, allowing us to stay connected despite distance and other barriers. However, concern on privacy has also been rais ...
The recent advances in light field imaging, supported among others by the introduction of commercially available cameras e.g. Lytro or Raytrix, are changing the ways in which visual content is captured and processed. Efficient storage and delivery systems ...
Modern cameras can be used to capture high dynamic range (HDR) images by taking multiple low dynamic range (LDR) pictures at different exposure settings. However, DSLR cameras often store the multiple exposure pictures, which increases storage requirements ...
High bit depth data acquisition and manipulation have been largely studied at the academic level over the last 15 years and are rapidly attracting interest at the industrial level. An example of the increasing interest for high-dynamic range (HDR) imaging ...

In this paper we propose a method to adapt the quantization tables of typical block-based transform codecs when the input to the encoder is a panoramic image resulting from equirectangular projection of a spherical image. When the visual content is project ...
This paper reports results of subjective and objective quality assessments of responses to a grand challenge on light field image compression. The goal of the challenge was to collect and evaluate new compression algorithms for light field images. In total ...
