Multimedia transmissions over heterogeneous networks require a high degree of flexibility from video compression systems. They are expected to be fully scalable, that is to say to...
This paper proposes a video coding scheme, in which textural and structural regions are selectively removed in the encoder, and restored in the decoder by spatio-temporal texture ...
A method for video indexing and filtering based on motion activity characteristics in hierarchical levels is proposed. To extract motion activity information, an MPEG (MPEG-1/2) v...
Motion Compensated Temporal Filtering (MCTF) has proved to be an efficient coding tool in the design of open-loop scalable video codecs. In this paper we propose a MCTF video codi...
An approach to scalable multi-view video coding with joint best basis wavelet packets is examined in this paper. A 4-D wavelet transform is used to decorrelate the multi-view vide...
