In this paper, we propose a bitstream switching scheme for progressive fine granularity scalable (PFGS) video coding that aims to improve the streaming performance of the scalable...
The increased use of video data sets for multimedia-based applications has created a demand for strong video database support, including efficient methods for handling the content...

This paper presents a distortion optimized streaming algorithm for on-demand streaming of multimedia. Given the pre-encoded packets of a multimedia stream, we propose an algorithm...
Scalable video coding (SVC) employs inter-frame prediction at the base and/or the enhancement layers. Since the base layer can be encoded/decoded independent of the enhancement la...
In this paper, we introduce an analytical expression for the expected distortion of a single layer encoded video bit-stream. Based on the expected distortion model, we propose a d...
