This paper shows that an image can be approximately reconstructed based on the output of
a blackbox local description software such as those classically used for image indexing. Our …

We propose a self-adaptive image transmission scheme driven by energy efficiency
considerations in order to be suitable for wireless sensor networks. It is based on wavelet …

<? Pub Dtl=""?> Image transmissions in Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks (WMSNs) are
often energy constrained. They also have requirement on distortion minimization, which may …

Network lifetime maximization is a critical issue in wireless sensor networks since each
sensor has a limited energy supply. In contrast with conventional sensor networks, video …

In this paper, we present and evaluate a hardware solution for user-driven and packet loss
tolerant image compression, especially designed to enable low power image compression …

Robust image and video communications have become more imperative due to the
ubiquitous proliferation of multimedia applications over wireless sensor networks. In this …
