Side estimation plays an important role in Wyner-Ziv video coding. In this paper, we examine the use of two conventional motion search methods to improve side estimation. Unlike m...
Distributed Video Coding (DVC) is a coding paradigm that gives the decoder the task to exploit the source statistics to achieve efficient compression. Current approaches to DVC rel...
In this paper, we establish the exact relationship between the continuous and the discrete phase-difference of two shifted images, and show that their discrete phase difference is...
A new approach to Variable Size Block Matching is proposed, based on the binary partitioning of blocks. If a particular block does not allow for accurate motion compensation, then...
We propose a novel distortion minimization technique for the transmission of a packetized progressive bitstream. We consider tandem channels introducing bit errors and packet eras...
