Current rate control schemes in video coding standards do not have efficient frame-level bit allocation because of the inherent constraints in real-time encoding. In this paper, w...
Video transcoding is an efficient way for. rate adaptation and format conversion in various networked video applications. Many transcoder architectures have been proposed to achie...
Sprite coding is a very efficient method for the representation and compression of background video object, which has been accepted by MPEG-4 standard. However, how to automatical...
In standard predictive video coders, intra-mode coding of macroblocks (MBs) provides packet loss resilience, at the cost of reduced compression efficiency. Conventional mode selec...
The paper presents a novel coding technique based on approximate geometry for images taken from arbitrary recording positions around a 3-D scene. Such data structures occur in ima...
