국제표준 3차원 포인트 클라우드 압축 기술인 MPEG(Moving Picture Experts Group)-I(Immersive) V-PCC(Video-based Point Cloud Compression)에는 점유 맵(Occupancy Map) 손실/무손실 압축 기술이 포함되어 있다. V-PCC는 기존에 보급되어 있는 2차원 비디오 코덱(H.264/AVC, HEVC, AV1 등)을 그대로 활용할 수 있는 장점이 있는데, 대부분의 소비자 영상 기기에 포함되어 있는 2차원 비디오 복호화기 HW는 무손실을 지원하지 않는다. 따라서 V-PCC 복호화기의 폭넓은 상용화를 위해서는 부호화기에서 점유 맵의 손실 압축이 필수적이다. 본 논문은 V-PCC 부호화기의 점유 맵을 최소한의 압축 효율 저하로 손실 압축하기 위해 다양한 파라미터 실험을 통한 최적의 파라미터 값을 제시한다.

A macroblock(MB) in MPEG coded domain can have zero, one, or two motion vectors depending on its frame type and prediction direction (forward-, backward-, or hi-directionally). In this paper, we propose a method that converts these motion vectors on MPEG coded domain as a uniform set, independent of the frame type and the direction of prediction, and directly utilizes these re-analyzed motion vectors for understanding video contents. Also, using this frame-type-independent motion vector, we propose novel methods for detecting and tracking moving objects with frame-based detection accuracy on the compressed domain. These algorithms are performed directly from the MPEG bitstreams after VLC decoding with little time consumption. Experimental results show validity and outstanding performance of our methods.

Most of the previous video watermarking algorithms cannot be supported by real-time video processing. The maul reason is that in order to develop a robust algorithm the watermarking technique requires a very high computational cost when embedding and extracting the watermark in various frequency domains. Previous embedding methods simultaneously try to compress a video by MPEG and embed a watermark supporting real-time processing. However, In this paper, our proposed algorithm can support real-time processing in both spatial and frequency domains. First. the watermark is created on the courier transform domain, and next is inverse-Fourier-transformed ; then, we directly embed it into the video frame In the spatial domain. This procedure does not require a lot of the computational cost during embedding because of the spatial domain processing. Also, it is possible to support a video stream service and a very robust algorithm from MPEG compression and various geometric attacks.

In this paper, we propose an efficient motion prediction architecture and DPB design mechanism for scalable multi-view video coding which is implemented by integrating SVC and MVC coding algorithms. In the proposed motion prediction architecture, we employ pictures associated with other views as a candidate for reference picture for improved motion prediction performance. By the proposed prediction architecture, we could enormously reduce the size of compressed video data. When performing scalable multi-view video coding, an integrated DPB design mechanism is also proposed. It is shown by various simulations that the proposed motion prediction architecture for scalable multi-view video coding can result in reduced data size in the compressed bitstream.

When providing high quality panoramic video across the Internet, mobile communications, and broadcasting areas, it requires a suitable video codec that satisfies both high-compression efficiency and random access functionality. The users must have high-compression efficiency in order to enable video streaming of high-volume panoramic data. Random access allows the user to move the viewpoint and direction freely. In this paper, we propose the parallel processing scheme under cell units in order to improve the performance of streaming service for large screen panoramic video in 10Mbps bandwidths based on H.264/AVC with high compression rate. This improved algorithm divides a screen composed of cells less than $256{\times}256$ in size, encodes it, and decodes it with the cells in the present view. At this point, encoding/decoding is parallel processed by the present cell units. Also, since the cells only included in the present view are packed and transmitted, the possible processing of not extricating blocks is proven by experiment.

VBR compressed, pre-recorded video is known to exhibit significant, multiple time-scale bit rate variability. To reduce the variability and burstiness of the aggregated transmission rate as low as possible, in this paper, we present an adaptive bandwidth smoothing algorithm, that can be effectively applicalble for VoD services over a shared-medium channel. For these environments where many clients are connected to a single server, by introducing the conventional MVBA(minimum variability bandwidth allocation) algorithm and controlling adaptively the conventional MVBA(minimum variability bandwidth asllocation) algorithm and controlling adaptively the aggregated transmission rate whenever a new clients request is arrived at the server side, the proposed algorithm effectively reduces the burstiness and variability of the aggregated transmission rate. Through computer experiments, it is shown that the proposed method perporms better than the convertional non-aggregated bandwidth smoothing schemes in terms of the peak rate, standard deviation, number of rate changes for the aggregated traffic.

Content-based video matching is measuring a similarity of video signature compared to the original clip and copies of media. Specially, it is very important to match the exact frame position, but it depends on frame rate, noise condition and compression format of video. Ordinal signature shows good performance than other video signatures under normal condition but the previous didn't try to find the uniqueness and robustness. Hua et al. performed a uniqueness test under compressed in different formats or frame size. However, they used other compression format image instead of noise in robustness test. This paper proposes robustness test method using several noise models and analyzes the performance of robustness and uniqueness.

In this paper, we propose the digital video frame obfuscation method for intellectual property protection using the DC component of the intra frame and the motion vector of the inter frame at digital video encoding. The proposed method considers characteristics of the HVS (human visual system) which is sensitive at the low frequency and the middle frequency. This method makes the signal distorted as operating XOR between authentication signal and the DC coefficient of the intra frame including main information and the sign of the motion vector including edge motion, so that the video is normally displayed only when suitable authentication signal is applied.

With the rapid progress of computer technology in recent years, a digital video data has been used in many applications. As a result, various technologies have been introduced to discover knowledge embedded in a video database. However, few researches on data mining for a video database have been performed due to the unclear boundary of the information in a large amount of a video stream. This paper proposes an efficient generation method of a feature profile in a set of similar video data. To extract the information embedded in original video data efficiently, several refinement techniques are also presented. These methods include merging pixels, restricting preferred areas, removing noises under a minimum repeat factor, extracting important key frames, generating derived blocks and applying weights to dynamic and static areas differently. Finally, the performance of these methods is evaluated by comparing a result profile obtained by a data mining process with original video streams.

This paper presents an inter-prediction technique using deep learning, where a virtual reference frame of the current frame is synthesized by using the reconstructed frames to improve coding efficiency. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm provides 1.9% BD-rate reduction on average as compared to HEVC reference software in the Random Access condition.
