The recent rise in interest in point clouds as an imaging modality has motivated standardization groups such as JPEG and MPEG to launch activities aiming at developing compression standards for point clouds. Lossy compression usually introduces visual arti ...
A new EU initiative, Hydropower-Europe, is reported here. This work, soon to be launched, will provide a framework for the hydropower sector in Europe to define a research and innovation agenda, and technology roadmap. The initiative is expected to help po ...
The funding landscape in Europe is complex and potentially overwhelming with a multitude of pan-European and national funding mechanisms available. This session explores some of the options available to those seeking funds and suggests strategies for navig ...
In the field of image acquisition, Dynamic Vision Sensors (DVS) present an innovative methodology, capturing only the variations in pixel brightness instead of absolute values and thereby revealing unique features. Given that the primary deployment of DVS ...
Over the last decades, several technological revolutions have impacted the television industry, such as the shifts from black & white to color and from standard to high-definition. Nevertheless, further considerable improvements can still be achieved to pr ...
The Bidirectional Texture Function (BTF) is a data-driven solution to render materials with complex appearance. A typical capture contains tens of thousands of images of a material sample under varying viewing and lighting conditions. While capable of fait ...
Ultra high definition (UHD) TV is rapidly replacing high definition (HD) TV but little is known of its effects on human visual attention. However, a clear understanding of this effect is important, since accurate models, evaluation methodologies, and metri ...
The rapid development of digital imaging and video has placed visual contents in the heart of our lives. Digital multimedia span a vast number of areas from business to leisure, including but not limited to education, medicine, accessibility, training, adv ...
Since its invention in the 19th century, photography has allowed to create durable images of the world around us by capturing the intensity of light that flows through a scene, first analogically by using light-sensitive material, and then, with the advent ...
Using Focus of Attention (FoA) as a perceptual process in image and video compression belongs to well-known approaches to increase coding efficiency. It has been shown that foveated coding, when compression quality varies across the image according to regi ...
