Pixel-based searching for object location in a JPEG image

In the paper we apply pixel-based searching to locate objects in a JPEG image. We make use of progressive wavelet correlation along with the Fourier method. The image is searched step by step. The searching consists of three incremental steps, each of which quadruples the number of correlation points. The process can be halted at any stage if the intermediate remits indicate that the correlation will not result in a match.
