We vary the quantization parameter in H.264 video encoding by increasing it by a well-chosen offset in every other frame, which we call reduced frames. As the motion compensation ...
In this paper, an ontology infrastucture for multimedia reasoning is presented, making it possible to combine low-level visual descriptors with domain specific knowledge and subs...
The Multidimensional Multiscale Parser (MMP) algorithm has been proposed recently as a universal data coding method. MMP has proved to be a very powerful coding method for images, ...

A lifelike human face can enhance interactive applications by providing straightforward feedback to and from the users and stimulating emotional responses from them. An expressive...
A technique for performing progressive mesh-based motion estimation in a layered fashion is presented. Motion compensation based on image warping provides a block prediction free ...
Distributed Video Coding (DVC) is a new video coding approach based on the Wyner-Ziv theorem. Unlike most of the existing video codecs, each frame is encoded separately (either as...
In this paper, we compare temporal layered coding (TLC), as well as single-state coding (SSC), to multi-state video coding (MSVC) in the context of lossy video communications. MSV...

In this paper we propose a very simple FIR pre-filter based method for near optimal least-squares linear approximation of discrete time signals. A digital pre-processing filter,...
