Hybrid video coding using bi-dimensional matching pursuit

Pierre Vandergheynst, Lorenzo Granai, Lorenzo Peotta, Emilio Maggio

In this report we propose a new coding scheme based on the Matching Pursuit algorithm and exploiting some of the new features introduced by H.264 for motion estimation. Main points of this work are the design of a redundant dictionary suitable for coding d ...

Very low bit rate image coding using redundant dictionaries

Pierre Vandergheynst, Lorenzo Granai, Lorenzo Peotta

Very low bit rate image coding is an important problem regarding applications such as storage on low memory devices or streaming data on the internet. The state of the art in image compression is to use 2-D wavelets. The advantages of wavelet bases lie in ...

Color Image Scalable Coding with Matching Pursuit

Pascal Frossard, Pierre Vandergheynst

This paper presents a new scalable and highly flexible color image coder based on a Matching Pursuit expansion. The Matching Pursuit algorithm provides an intrinsically progressive stream and the proposed coder allows us to reconstruct color information fr ...

Oligoquantization in low-rate lossy source coding

The theory of high rate lossy source coding is well developed both with respect to the practice of quantization and its fundamental rate distortion limits. But many modern compression systems for natural signals such as audio and images operate at lower ra ...

Lossy to lossless object-based coding of 3-D MRI data

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Gloria Menegaz

We propose a fully three-dimensional object-based coding system exploiting the diagnostic relevance of the different regions of the volumetric data for rate allocation. The data are first decorrelated via a 3D discrete wavelet transform. The implementation ...

Optimal Scheduling of Rich Media in a Rate-Distortion Sense

Pascal Frossard

We consider the transmission of variable bit rate video over a network offering a guaranteed service such as ATM VBR or the guaranteed service of the IETF. The guaranteed service requires that the flow accepted by the network has to be conforming with a tr ...

R-D Analysis of Adaptive Edge Representations

Pierre Vandergheynst, Lorenzo Granai

This paper presents a Rate-Distortion analysis for a simple horizon edge image model. A quadtree with anisotropy and rotation is performed on this kind of image, giving a toy model for a non-linear adaptive coding technique, and its Rate-Distortion behavio ...

A generalized Rate-Distortion limit for edge representation

Pierre Vandergheynst, Lorenzo Granai

This paper presents a rate-distortion analysis for a simple horizon edge image model. A quadtree with anisotropy and rotation is performed in this kind of image, giving a toy model for a non-linear adaptive coding technique, and its rate-distortion behavio ...

Joint Source/FEC Rate Selection for Quality-Optimal MPEG-2 Video Delivery

Pascal Frossard

This paper deals with the optimal allocation of MPEG-2 encoding and media-independent Forward Error Correction (FEC) rates under a total given bandwidth. The optimality is defined in terms of minimum perceptual end-to-end distortion given a set of video an ...

AMISP: A Complete Content-Based MPEG-2 Error-Resilient Scheme

Pascal Frossard

We address a new error-resilient scheme for broadcast quality MPEG-2 video streams to be transmitted over lossy packet networks. A new scene-complexity adaptive mechanism, namely Adaptive MPEG-2 Information Structuring (AMIS) is introduced. AMIS modulates ...
