This paper describes an algorithm for generating a planar image that when tilted provides stereo cues to slant, without contamination from pictorial gradients. As the stimuli derived from this image are ultimately intended for use in studies of slant perception under magnification, a further requirement is that the generated image be suitable for high-definition printing or display on a monitor. A...
The least-significant-bit (LSB) technique is one of the commonly used steganographic algorithms in the spatial domain. In most existing schemes, they didn’t carefully analyze the relationship between the image content itself. Hence, the smooth areas in the cover image will inevitably be contaminated after hiding even at a low embedding rate, thereby leading to poor visual quality and low security...
Design of a false color palette is quite easy but some more effort is required to achieve a good dynamic range, contrast and overall appearance of the palette. Such palettes, for instance, are commonly used in scientific papers for data presentation. However, to lower the cost of the article, most scientists decide to let the data be printed in grayscale. The same applies to e-book readers based on...
Cybersickness is often experienced when viewing virtual environments through head-mounted displays (HMDs). This study examined whether vection (i.e., illusory self-motion) and mismatches between perceived and physical head motions contribute to such adverse experiences. Observers made oscillatory yaw head rotations while viewing stereoscopic optic flow through an Oculus Rift HMD. Vection and cybersickness...
In this paper, we propose a new self-embedding watermarking scheme with hierarchical recovery capability. The binary bits in the adopted MSB layers are scrambled and individually interleaved with different extension ratios according to their importance to image visual quality. The interleaved data, which are regarded as reference bits for tampering recovery, are segmented into a series of groups corresponding...
When people talk to each other, eye contact is very important for a trustful and efficient communication. Video-conferencing systems were invented to enable such communication over large distances, recently using mostly Internet and personal computers. Despite low cost of such solutions, a broader acceptance and use of these communication means has not happened yet. One of the most important reasons...
The wavelet domain Wiener filter has been widely adopted as an effective image denoising method that has low complexity. In this paper we propose a novel Wiener filter with high-resolution estimation that determines the signal power while preserving the edge information. We assume that a noisy image is composed of noise and the original image, which are mutually orthogonal. Based on this assumption,...
