Preface
Traditionally,signalprocessingtechniqueslayatthefoundationofmultimedia
data processing and analysis. In the past few years, a new wave of advanced
signal-processingtechniques hasdeliveredexciting results,increasingsystems
capabilities of efficiently exchanging image data and extracting useful knowl-
edge from them. Signal Processing for Image Enhancement and Multimedia
Processing is an edited volume, written by well-recognized international re-
searcherswithextendedchapterstyleversionsofthebestpaperspresentedat
the SITIS 2006 International Conference.
This book presents the state-of-the-art and recent research results on the
application of advanced signal processing techniques for improving the value
of image and video data. It also discusses feature-based techniques for deep,
feature-oriented analysis of images and new results on video coding on time-
honoredtopic ofsecuringimageinformation.SignalProcessingforImageEn-
hancementandMultimedia Processingisdesignedforaprofessionalaudience
composedofpractitionersandresearchersinindustry.Thisvolumeisalsosuit-
able as a reference or secondarytext for advanced-levelstudents in computer
science and engineering.
The chapters included in this book are a selection of papers presented at
the SignalandImage Technologiestrackof the internationalSITIS 2006con-
ference. The authors were asked to revise and extend their contributions to
take into account the many challenges and remarks discussed at the confer-
ence. A large number of high quality papers were submitted to SITIS 2006,
demonstrating the growing interest of the researchcommunity for image and
multimedia processing.
We acknowledgethe hardwork and dedication of many people. We thank
theauthorswhohavecontributedtheirwork.Weappreciatethediligentwork
of the SITIS committee members. We are grateful for the help, support and
patienceoftheSpringerpublishingteam.Finally,thankstoIwayanWikacsana
