This paper introduces the VISNET II DVC codec. This co-dec achieves very high RD performance thanks to the efficient combination of many state-of-the-art coding tools into a fully practical video codec. Experimental results show that the proposed DVC codec ...
Video surveillance is currently undergoing a rapid growth. However, while thousands of cameras are being installed in public places all over the world, computer programs that could reliably detect and track people in order to analyze their behavior are not ...
In this paper, an efficient H.264/AVC baseline encoder, described in RVC-CAL actor language, is introduced. The main aim of the paper is two folds: a) to demonstrate the flexibility and ease that is provided by RVC-CAL, which allows for efficient implement ...
The Video Tool Library (VTL) is one of the major normative components of the Reconfigurable Video Coding (RVC) standard. It specifies the set of functional units (FUs)that may be interchangeably combined and connected to form different video codecs, with v ...
This paper addresses the problem of distortion modeling for video transmission over burst-loss channels characterized by a finite state Markov chain. Based on a detailed analysis of the error propagation and the bursty losses, a Distortion Trellis model is ...
