Error Robust H. 264 Video Transmission Schemes Based on Multi-frame

Multi-frame coding is supported by the emerging H. 264. It is important for the enhancement of both coding efficiency and error robustness. In this paper, error resilient schemes for H. 264 based on multi frame were investigated. Error robust H. 264 video transmission schemes were introduced for the applications with and without a feedback channel. The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed schemes.     

A POCS-Based Algorithm for Blocking Artifacts Reduction

Introduction Block-based discrete cosine transform(BDCT) is considered to be a basic tool in bothstill and moving image compression standards,such as JPEG, H.261/263, and MPEG, owing toits near-optimal energy compaction property andmoderate hardware complexity. However, sinceeach N×N block is coded independently, the re-constructed images would exhibit annoying discon-tinuities along block boundaries at low bit rate,which are often referred to as the“blocking arti-facts”in the transfo…     

Unsupervised spatio-temporal segmentation for extracting moving objects in video sequences

Extraction of moving objects is an important and fundamental research topic for many video ap-plications. This paper addresses an unsupervised spatio-temporal segmentation scheme to extract moving objects from video sequences. The temporal segmentation localizes moving objects by comparing the motion vector of each block in each frame with the corresponding global motion vector estimated by an outlier rejection (OR) based method. Furthermore, the temporal compensation utilizing the temporal coherence of moving objects is considered in the temporal segmentation to solve the temporarily stopping problem. The detected moving regions usually have discontinuous boundaries and some holes. These regions are then compensated in the spatial domain. In the spatial segmentation, the watershed algorithm considering the global information improves the accuracy of segmentation in the spatial domain. The modified mean filter is presented to suppress some minima. By using a fusion module, moving objects are extracted. Experiments on various sequences have successfully demonstrated the validity of the proposed scheme.     

An Object-Based Fast Motion Estimation Algorithm in MPEG-4

Introduction The MPEG has successfully developed theMPEG-4 standard[1]to address a wide range ofmultimedia data compression applications. As oneof the major parts of MPEG-4 standard, MPEG-4video aims at providing standardized core technolo-gies allowing efficient storage, transmission andmanipulation of video data in multimedia environ-ments[2]. Compared with its predecessor, MPEG-4 em-ploys many new compression techniques[3]. One ofthe main new features of MPEG-4 is its ability tore…
