Emerging real-time streaming applications often rely on rate-based flow control. However, congestion control for rate-based applications is typically dismissed as being not viable...
This paper presents a new 3-D subband coding framework that is able to achieve a good balance between high compression performance and channel error resilience. Various data transf...
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...
We present our current state of development regarding animated agents applicable to affective dialogue systems. A new set of tools are under development to support the creation of...
Rate shaping plays an important role in transmitting compressed video on a network with dynamic bandwidth. In this paper, we present a scheme for rate shaping JPEG/MPEG-precompres...
