In this paper, we address the problem of privacy in video surveillance systems. More specifically, we consider the case of H.264/AVC which is the state-of-the-art in video coding....
JPEG2000 is the latest still image coding standard from the JPEG committee, which adopts new algorithms such as Embedded Block Coding with Optimized Truncation (EBCOT) and Discret...
The block-matching motion estimation algorithm using a translational motion model cannot provide acceptable image quality in low bit-rate coding. To improve coding performance, we ...
A novel algorithm is described for coding objects in video compression systems which gives complete control over the bit allocation to the video objects. The method is evaluated b...
