Abstract:
In this paper, we present a method of creating domain-based multiple descriptions of images and video. These descriptions are created by partitioning the transform domain of the signal into sets whose points are maximally separated from each other. This property enables simple error concealment methods to produce good estimates of lost signal samples. We present the approach in the context of Internet transmission of subband/wavelet-coded images and scalable motion compensated three-dimensional (3D) subband/wavelet-coded video, but applications are not limited to these scenarios. The results indicate that the proposed methods offer improvements over similar competing methods by up to 1 dB for images, and several decibels for video. Visual quality is also improved.

Phase Contrast and Differential Interference Contrast Microscopy
In-phase-contrast microscopes, interference between light directly passing through a cell and light refracted by cellular components is used to create high-contrast, high-resolution images without staining. It is the oldest and simplest type of microscope that creates an image by altering the wavelengths of light rays passing through the specimen. Altered wavelength paths are created using an annular stop in the condenser. The annular stop produces a hollow cone of...
