Reduced-reference (RR) video quality measures aim to predict the perceptual quality of distorted video signals using only partial information about the reference video. Existing R...
Background: Comparative genomics aims to detect signals of evolutionary conservation as an indicator of functional constraint. Surprisingly, results of the ENCODE project revealed...
This paper introduces a formalism to describe the needs and preferences of database users. Because of the precise formulation of these concepts, we have found an automatic and ver...
This paper contains two contributions to very-low-bitrate video coding. First, we show that in contrast to common practice incremental techniques for rate-distortion optimization ...
Abstract--Transcoding is a key technique for reducing the bitrate of a previously compressed video signal. A high transcoding ratio may result in an unacceptable picture quality wh...
