We focus on the optimization of real-time multimedia transmission over 802.11-based ad hoc networks. In particular, we propose a simple and efficient cross-layer mechanism that considers both the channel conditions and characteristics of the media for dyna ...
The new Motion JPEG 2000 standard is providing with some compelling features. It is based on an intra-frame wavelet coding, which makes it very well suited for wireless applications. Indeed, the state-of-the-art wavelet coding scheme achieves very high cod ...
Perceptual prefiltering is the process of enhancing relevant portions of an image or of a video, and of simplifying contextual information in order to improve the perceived quality or the compression ratio. In this paper, we discuss the results of subjecti ...
Large-scale distributed video surveillance systems pose new scalability challenges. Due to the large number of video sources in such systems, the amount of bandwidth required to transmit video streams for monitoring often strains the capability of the netw ...
A method for marking a compressed digital video signal by embedding a digital signature in the compressed video signal, the signal representing a series of at least two video images, each image being divided into a plurality of regions, the signal includin ...
We present a method that exploits an information theoretic framework to extract optimal audio features with respect to the video features. A simple measure of mutual information between the resulting audio features and the video ones allows to detect the a ...
This paper describes a video surveillance system which is composed of three key components, smart cameras, a server, and clients, connected through IP-networks in wired or wireless configurations. The system has been designed so as to protect the privacy o ...
Spatial scalability of video signals can be achieved with critically sampled spatial wavelet schemes but also with an overcomplete spatial representation. Critically sampled schemes struggle with the problem that critically sampled high-bands are shift-var ...
This paper presents experiments that evaluate the effect of different video segmentation methods on text-based video retrieval. Segmentations relying on modalities like speech, video and text or their combination are compared with a baseline sliding window ...
Video Coding with Superimposed Motion-Compensated Signals: Applications to H.264 and Beyond, a professional monograph, will capture recent advances in motion compensation for efficient video compression. This book investigates linearly combined motion comp ...
