JPEG2000 is the latest international standard for compression of still images. Although the JPEG2000 codec is designed to compress images, we illustrate that it can also be used to compress other signals. As an example, we illustrate how the JPEG2000 codec can be used to compress electrocardiogram (ECG) data. Experiments using the MITBIH arrhythmia database illustrate that the proposed approach...

Publicly owned companies, their officers and major investors are required to file regular disclosures with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). To improve accessibility to these public documents, the SEC began developed the EDGAR (Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval) electronic disclosure system. This system provides ready, free access to all electronic filings made since...

Detailed profile of the context formation process in EBCOT is analyzed to get an insight into the characteristics of the ope...

This paper proposes an integrated solution for smart delivery of video surveillance data. The system is developed within the IST project WCAM "Wireless Cameras and AudioVisual Seamless Networking" which is presented as well [1]. The main feature of our system is it includes smart video coding based on automatic scene analysis and understanding. Specifically, the segmentation results are used fo...
