Current rate control schemes in video coding standards do not have efficient frame-level bit allocation because of the inherent constraints in real-time encoding. In this paper, w...
A motion aligned spatial scalable video coding scheme (MA-SSC) is proposed in this paper. Different from the traditional spatial scalable coding schemes derived from MPEG-2, in th...
In this paper, we present an object-based coding scheme using three-dimensional shape-adaptive discrete wavelet transforms (SA-DWT). Rather than straightforward extension of 2D SA...
In this paper we combine model-based video synthesis with block-based motion-compensated prediction (MCP). Two frames are utilized far prediction where one frame is the previous d...
A novel object dependent coding scheme based on optimization upon wavelet packet trees is proposed. The method may be employed in the context of object oriented video standard MPE...
