Asymmetric Compute-and-Forward with CSIT

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Jingge Zhu

We present a modified compute-and-forward scheme which utilizes Channel State Information at the Transmitters (CSIT) in a natural way. The modified scheme allows different users to have different coding rates, and use CSIT to achieve larger rate region. Th ...

Depth-based multiview distributed video coding

Thomas Maugey

Multiview distributed video coding (DVC) has gained much attention in the last few years because of its potential in avoiding communication between cameras without decreasing the coding performance. However, the current results are not matching the expecta ...

EXIT-based Side Information Refinement in Wyner-Ziv Video Coding

Pascal Frossard, Yiqiang Chen

The accuracy of the side information (SI) is critical in the performance of distributed video coding algorithms. The SI is typically built at a decoder based on the reconstructed data and on channel coding parity bits transmitted by the encoder. The optima ...

Optimized MVC Prediction Structures for Interactive Multiview Video Streaming

Pascal Frossard, Ana Karina De Abreu Goes

The Multiview Video Coding (MVC) standard efficiently compresses multiview video by considering spatial, temporal and interview correlations. This letter studies the impact of the MVC interview prediction structure on both the transmission and the overall ...

Perceptual Coding of High-Quality Digital Audio

Christof Faller, Karlheinz Brandenburg

This paper introduces high-quality audio coding using psychoacoustic models. This technology is now abundant, with gadgets named after a standard (mp3 players) and the ability to play high-quality audio from literally billions of devices. The usual paradig ...

Lossy source coding via spatially coupled LDGM ensembles

Rüdiger Urbanke, Nicolas Macris, Vahid Aref, Marc Vuffray

We study a new encoding scheme for lossy source compression based on spatially coupled low-density generatormatrix codes. We develop a belief-propagation guided-decimation algorithm, and show that this algorithm allows to approach the optimal distortion of ...

On Sampling and Coding for Distributed Acoustic Sensing

Martin Vetterli, Emre Telatar, Robert Konsbruck

The issue of how to efficiently represent the data collected by a network of microphones recording spatio-temporal acoustic wave fields is addressed. Each sensor node in the network samples the sound field, quantizes the samples and transmits the encoded s ...

Distributed Successive Refinement of Multiview Images Using Broadcast Advantage

Martin Vetterli, Guillermo Barrenetxea Kobas, Zichong Chen

In environmental monitoring applications, having multiple cameras focus on common scenery increases robustness of the system. To save energy based on user demand, successive refinement image coding is important, as it allows us to progressively request bet ...

Rate Distortion Behavior of Sparse Sources

Martin Vetterli

The rate distortion behavior of sparse memoryless sources is studied. These serve as models of sparse signal representations and facilitate the performance analysis of "sparsifying" transforms like the wavelet transform and nonlinear approximation schemes. ...

Correlation-aware packet scheduling for multi-camera streaming

Pascal Frossard, Thomas Maugey, Laura Toni

In multi-view applications, multiple cameras acquire the same scene from different perspectives, which results in correlated video streams. It becomes important to exploit this correlation at the acquisition side (i.e., in the source coding) or at the rece ...
