Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An image transmission method (and related system) for obtaining data of a local subject and processing the data of the local subject to fit a local model of at least a region of the local subject and extract parameters of the local model to capture features of the region of the local subject. The method (and related system) may also include obtaining data of at least one remote subject and processing the data of the remote subject to fit at least one of at least one region of the remote subject and extract parameters the remote model to capture features of the region of the remote subject. The method (and related system) may also include transmitting the extracted parameters of the local region to a remote processor and reconstructing the local image based on the extracted parameters of the local region and the extracted parameters of the remote region.

First claim
