In this paper, we address the problem of scrambling regions of interest in a video sequence for the purpose of preserving privacy in video surveillance. We propose an efficient solution based on transform-domain scrambling. More specifically, the sign of s ...
Multi-State Video Coding (MSVC) is a multiple description scheme based on frame-wise splitting of the video sequence into two or more subsequences. Each subsequence is encoded separately to generate descriptions which can be decoded independently. Due to s ...
We propose a smart camera which performs video analysis and generates an MPEG-7 compliant stream. By producing a content-based metadata description of the scene, the MPEG-7 camera extends the capabilities of conventional cameras. The metadata is then direc ...
In this paper, we address the problem privacy in video surveillance. We propose an efficient solution based on transform-domain scrambling of regions of interest in a video sequence. More specifically, the sign of selected transform coefficients is flipped ...
We present a novel scheme for the transmission of H.264/AVC video streams over lossy packet networks. The proposed scheme exploits the error resilient features of H.264/AVC codec and employs Reed-Solomon codes to protect effectively the streams. The optima ...
We address the problem of coding video signals in the presence of correlated video side information. The correlated video signals may originate from cameras that monitor the same scene from different view points. We utilize motion-compensated temporal wave ...
In this paper, we introduce a scheme for coding video surveillance camera networks. It is based on multiview and Distributed Video Coding (DVC). DVC is known for its low complexity encoders. This makes it very interesting for a wide range of applications, ...
This paper discusses robust coding of visual content for a distributed multimedia system. The system encodes independently two correlated video signals and reconstructs them jointly at a central decoder. The video signals are captured from a dynamic scene ...
In this work, a performance evaluation of AVC Intra and JPEG2000 in terms of rate-distortion performance is conducted. A rich set of test sequences with different spatial resolutions is used in this evaluation. Furthermore, the comparison is made with both ...
In the problem of lossy source coding with side-information, it is well known (Wyner and Ziv 1976) that knowledge of the side-information at the encoder improves the rate-distortion trade-off for binary sources and the Hamming distortion measure. We consid ...
