This paper presents a fast and robust sprite generation algorithm for MPEG-4 video coding. Our contributions consist of two aspects. Firstly, a fast and robust Global Motion Estima...
Current video coding schemes employ motion compensation to exploit the fact that the signal forms an auto-regressive process along the motion trajectory, and remove temporal redun...
We present a new block matching criterion for motion estimation in video coding that will give better encoded video quality than the commonly used sum of absolute differences (SAD...
Visual attention is a complex concept that includes many processes to find the region of concentration in a visual scene. In this paper, we discuss a spatio-temporal visual salien...
In dual-frame video coding, one long-term reference (LTR) and one short-term reference (STR) frames are used for motion estimation and compensation. In previous work, it was shown...
