Robust Image Transmission
Develop error detection and correction methodology for corrupted JPEG images caused by transmission over a noisy wireless channel.

Image Quality Measure
Develop objective image quality measures that will resemble the human subjective image quality measure by taking into account the human visual characteristics.

Error Concealment
Develop an algorithm to conceal corrupted blocks in the image by using a few reference pixels in the block and the uncorrupted adjacent blocks to estimate the pixels of the corrupted block.

Cochlear Implant
Develop an efficient pulse coding of the speech and other acoustic information, and then distribute these pulses across the electrodes to stimulate the nervous system so that a deaf subject can clearly recognize speech.
