Sparse representation provides a new method of generating a super-resolution image from a single low resolution input image. An over-complete base for sparse representation is an essential part of such methods. However discovering the over-complete base with efficient representation from a large amount of image patches is a difficult problem. We make efforts in sparse representation and its implementation to solve the problem. In the representation, image patches are decomposed into two structure and texture components represented by the over-complete bases of their own spaces so that their high-level features can be captured by the bases. In the implementation, a prior knowledge about low resolution images generation is combined to the typical base construction for high construction quality. Finally a super-resolution construction based on multi-space sparse representation is proposed. Experiment results demonstrate that the proposed method significantly improve the PSNR and visual quality of reconstructed high-resolution image. Copyright 2010 ACM.
The image data are obtained by a variety of multimedia, information equipment, which include amount of information, extensive coverage, and redundancy in ubiquitous computing paradigm. In order to make use of these in...

The requirement for supporting DVD-like functions raises new challenges to the design of P2P VoD systems. The uncertainty of frequent user DVD-like interactivity makes it difficult to ensure user perceived Quality of Experience (QoE) for real-time streaming services over distributed self-organized P2P overlay networks. Most existing solutions are based on the unreasonable assumption that all the users in P2P VoD systems have the same preference. Few attention has been paid to personalization, which accommodates the differences between users. In this paper, we present a video model which characterizes the personalization information for users' contents and preferences. Based on this model, we develop APEX, a practical personalization framework for P2P VoD applications. APEX makes the personalization practical by using a hybrid architecture which leverages the offline pattern mining on the server side and online collab.rative filtering on the peer side. Furthermore, APEX helps peers to personalize navigation, prefetching and membership management, aiming at improving QoE for DVD-like functions by reducing response latency and optimizing content sharing. Both theoretical analysis and comprehensive simulations show that APEX outperforms most existing schemes in terms of accumulated hit ratio, response latency, and searching efficiency.
In this paper, a system named QuickDiagram is proposed for quick diagram input and understanding. With a user sketching a (complete or partial) component/symbol or a wire (connecting two components) of the diagram, th...
