Providing continuous video playback with graceful quality degradation over wireless channels is fraught with challenges. Video applications require stringent delay guarantees and ...
Periodic broadcast and scheduled multicast have been shown to be very effective in reducing the demand on server bandwidth. While periodic broadcast is better for popular videos, s...
This paper presents a 3-D shape-adaptive directional wavelet coding technique for object-based scalable video coding. This technique includes 3-D object-based directional threading...
The H.264/AVC video encoder standard significantly improves the compression efficiency by using variable block-sized Inter (P) and Intra (I) Macroblock (MB) coding modes. In this p...
In this paper, we propose a new seamless bitstream switching scheme to improve the coding performance ofH.264 SP-frames for rate adaptation. Our method removes one of the two requ...
