| Abstract | The Dual-Tree Complex Wavelet Transform (DTWT) is a relatively new signal processing tool developed initially by Dr Nick Kingsbury of Cambridge University. The DTWT has the property of being largely invariant to subsample shifts in the signal being transformed. This property is particularly useful in many image processing applications. The presentation will briefly discuss two projects which use the DTWT to provide improved solutions to problems in the areas of medical image registration and video watermarking. | Bio | Dr Mark Pickering is a Senior Lecturer with the School of Electrical Engineering, The University of New South Wales, at the Australian Defence Force Academy. Since joining the University of New South Wales, he has lectured in a range of subjects including analogue communications techniques, and digital image processing. He has been actively involved in the development of the recent MPEG international standards for audio-visual communications. He is currently supervising several joint PhD projects in conjunction with DSTO on image understanding for surveillance applications. Mark holds Bachelor, Masters and Doctor of Philosophy degrees in electrical engineering and is the author of several articles on image compression and communications. |
