Abstract--The emerging video coding standard MPEG-4 enables various content-based functionalities for multimedia applications. To support such functionalities, as well as to improv...
This paper presents a fast and robust sprite generation algorithm for MPEG-4 video coding. Our contributions consist of two aspects. Firstly, a fast and robust Global Motion Estima...
In this article, we investigate efficient transmission of Object-based MPEG-4 video over IP networks with QoS management capabilities. MPEG-4 Audio Visual Objects (AVOs) are class...
A smart interactive video object generation (SIVOG) system is proposed in this work. SIVOG provides a semantic layer to interact with the user. It interprets user’s input and ch...
This paper presents a semi-fragile object-based authentication solution for MPEG4 video. To protect the integrity of the video objects / sequences, a content-based watermark is em...
