Sprite-based video coding offers higher compression efficiency than conventional block-based hybrid video coders. In sprite coding a sequence is divided into a model of its backgr...
In telepresence and teleaction systems the haptic communication channel plays a central role. As it closes a global control loop any introduced communication delay possibly destab...

—The Multiview Video Coding (MVC) standard is currently under development by the Joint Video Team as an extension of the Advanced Video Coding (H.264/AVC) standard. An MVC encode...
Entropy encoding and decoding is a crucial part of any multimedia system that can be highly demanding in terms of computing power. Hardware implementation of typical compression a...
This report proposes a new coding method, which realizes lossless, near-lossless and lossy coding with a unified single algorithm. The method is based on a lifting-structured loss...
