By mapping a set of input images to points in a lowdimensional manifold or subspace, it is possible to efficiently account for a small number of degrees of freedom. For example, i...
An efficient scalable predictive coding method is proposed for the Wyner-Ziv problem, using nested lattice quantization followed by multi-layer Slepian-Wolf coders (SWC) with laye...
Group communication primitives have broad utility as building blocks for distributed applications. The challenge is to create and maintain the distributed structures that support ...

In this paper, we discuss the design of a highly-parallel motion estimator for real-time Scalable Video Coding (SVC). In an SVC, motion is commonly estimated bidirectionally and o...
