This paper presents a new audio coder that includes two techniques to improve the sound quality of the audio coding system. First, a forward masking model is proposed. This model e...
This paper proposes a versatile perceptual audio coding method that achieves high compression ratios and is capable of low encoding/decoding delay. It accommodates a variety of sou...
This paper surveys the theoretical developments in the field of stochastic process algebras, process algebras where action occurrences may be subject to a delay that is determined...
An important and unsolved problem today is the automatic quantification of the quality of video flows transmitted over packet networks. In particular, the ability to perform this ...
Region-based functionality offered by the MPEG-4 video compression standard is also appealing for still images, for example to permit object-based queries of a still-image database...
