title: Holographic representations of images.
abstract: We discuss a new type of holographic image representations that have advantages in a "distributed" world. We call these representations holographic. Arbitrary portions of a holographic representation enable reconstruction of the whole image, with distortions that decrease gradually with the increase in the size of the portions available. Holographic representations enable progressive refinement in image communication or retrieval tasks, with no restrictions on the order in which the data fragments (sections of the representation) are accessed or become available.
