Motivated by the work of Uehara et al. [1], an improved method to recover DC coefficients from AC coefficients of DCT-transformed images is investigated in this work, which finds applications in cryptanalysis of selective multimedia encryption. The proposed under/over-flow rate minimization (FRM) method employs an optimization process to get a statistically more accurate estimation of unknown DC coefficients, thus achieving a better recovery performance. It was shown by experimental results based on 200 test images that the proposed DC recovery method significantly improves the quality of most recovered images in terms of the PSNR values and several state-of-the-art objective image quality assessment (IQA) metrics such as SSIM and MS-SSIM.

A general method for recovering missing DCT coefficients in DCT-transformed images is presented in this work. We model the DCT coefficients recovery problem as an optimization problem and recover all missing DCT coefficients via linear programming. T he visual quality of the recovered image gradually decreases as the number of missing DCT coefficients increases. For some images, the quality is surprisingly good even when more than 10 most significant DCT coefficients are missing. When only the DC coefficient is missing, the proposed algorithm outperforms existing methods according to experimental results conducted on 200 test images. The proposed recovery method can be used for cryptanalysis of DCT based selective encryption schemes and other applications.
We propose an image representation and matching approach that substantially improves visual-based location estimation for images. The main novelty of the approach, called distinctive visual element matching (DVEM), is its use of representations that are specific to the query image whose location is being predicted. These representations are based on visual element clouds, which robustly capture the connection between the query and visual evidence from candidate locations. We then maximize the influence of visual elements that are geo-distinctive because they do not occur in images taken at many other locations. We carry out experiments and analysis for both geo-constrained and geo-unconstrained location estimation cases using two large-scale, publicly-available datasets: the San Francisco Landmark dataset with $1.06$ million street-view images and the MediaEval 15 Placing Task dataset with $5.6$ million geo-tagged images from Flickr. We present examples that illustrate the highly-transparent mechanics of the approach, which are based on common sense observations about the visual patterns in image collections. Our results show that the proposed method delivers a considerable performance improvement compared to the state of the art.
First responders are increasingly using social media to identify and reduce crime for well-being and safety of the society. Images shared on social media hurting religious, political, communal and other sentiments of people, often instigate violence and create law & order situations in society. This results in the need for first responders to inspect the spread of such images and users propagating them on social media. In this paper, we present a comparison between different hand-crafted features and a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model to retrieve similar images, which outperforms state-of-art hand-crafted features. We propose an Open-Source-Intelligent (OSINT) real-time image search system, robust to retrieve modified images that allows first responders to analyze the current spread of images, sentiments floating and details of users propagating such content. The system also aids officials to save time of manually analyzing the content by reducing the search space on an average by 67%.
In this paper, we propose a new interactive compression scheme for omnidirectional images. This requires two characteristics: efficient compression of data, to lower the storage cost, and random access ability to extract part of the compressed stream requested by the user (for reducing the transmission rate). For efficient compression, data needs to be predicted by a series of references that have been pre-defined and compressed. This contrasts with the spirit of random accessibility. We propose a solution for this problem based on incremental codes implemented by rate-adaptive channel codes. This scheme encodes the image while adapting to any user request and leads to an efficient coding that is flexible in extracting data depending on the available information at the decoder. Therefore, only the information that is needed to be displayed at the users side is transmitted during the users request, as if the request was already known at the encoder. The experimental results demonstrate that our coder obtains a better transmission rate than the state-of-the-art tile-based methods at a small cost in storage. Moreover, the transmission rate grows gradually with the size of the request and avoids a staircase effect, which shows the perfect suitability of our coder for interactive transmission.

Since the limited power capacity, finite inertia, and dynamic loads make the shipboard power system (SPS) vulnerable, the automatic reconfiguration for failure recovery in SPS is an extremely significant but still challenging problem. It is not only required to operate accurately and optimally, but also to satisfy operating constraints. In this paper, we consider the reconfiguration optimization for hybrid AC/DC microgrids in all-electric ships. Firstly, the multi-zone medium voltage DC (MVDC) SPS model is presented. In this model, the DC power flow for reconfiguration and a generalized AC/DC converter are modeled for accurate reconfiguration. Secondly, since this problem is mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP), a hybrid method based on Newton Raphson and Biogeography based Optimization (NRBBO) is designed according to the characteristics of system, loads, and faults. This method facilitates to maximize the weighted load restoration while satisfying operating constraints. Finally, the simulation results demonstrate this method has advantages in terms of power restoration and convergence speed.
