In this paper, we propose a novel scalable video coding algorithm based on adaptively weighted multiple reference frame method. To improve the coding efficiency in the enhancement layer, the enhancement frame is predicted by the sum of adaptively weighted double motion compensated frames in the enhancement layer and the current frame in the base layer, according to the input video characteristics. By employing adaptive reference selection scheme at the decoder, the proposed method reduce the drift problem significantly. From the experimental results, the proposed algorithm shows more than 1.0 ㏈ PSNR improvement, compared with the conventional scalable H.263+ for various packet loss rate channel conditions.

본 논문에서는 요소를 사용하지 않은 수치해석기법인 무요소법 중에서 다중해상도(multi-resolution)특성이 내재되어 있는 Reproducing Kernel Particle Method (RKPM)의 이중스케일 분해기법을 사용하여 RKPM의 형상함수를 상단성분과 하단성분으로 분리하고 이를 3차원 선형탄성해석과정에 적용하여 von Mises 응력장의 상·하단성분을 유도하였다. 유도된 응력장의 상단성분을 이용하여 후처리과정을 거치지 않고도 응력의 고변화도 부위를 손쉽게 파악할 수 있는 기법을 개발하였으며 이를 이용한 효율적인 적응적 세분화기법의 적용가능성을 연구하였다. 대표적인 2차원 및 3차원 응력집중 문제에 적용하여 응력집중부위를 파악하고 간단한 적응적 세분화과정에 따른 절점추가를 통하여 해의 정도 향상을 파악해 본 결과, 본 연구에서 개발된 기법이 응력집중부위를 정확히 판정할 수 있었으며 효율적인 적응적 세분화기법의 유용한 도구로서 활용될 수 있음을 검증하였다.

In this paper, we propose a new framework for scalable media object to adapt the various QoS requirements in the heterogeneous networking environment. An MPEG-2 video is split into a set of scalable media objects in terms of temporal scaling and fidelity scaling. The portion of the scalable media objects is selectively delivered to adapt the QoS requirement. This framework can satisfy the various QoS requirements on bandwidth, even though the clients share a multipoint channel. By analysis on the rate-distortion characteristics of scalable media object framework, we shows our approach is feasible to support the various QoS requirements.

Currently, Scalable Video Coding (SVC) is being standardized. By using scalability of SVC, QoS managed video streaming service is enabled in heterogeneous networks even with only one original bitstream. But current SVC is insufficient to dynamic video conversion for the scalability, thereby the adaptation of bitrate to meet a fluctuating network condition is limited. In this paper, we propose dynamic full-scalability conversion method for QoS adaptive video streaming in H.264/AVC SVC. To accomplish full scalability dynamic conversion, we propose corresponding bitstream extraction, encoding and decoding schemes. On the encoder, we newly insert the IDR NAL to solve the problems of spatial scalability conversion. On the extractor, we analyze the SVC bitstream to get the information which enable dynamic extraction. By using this information, real time extraction is achieved. Finally, we develop the decoder so that it can manage changing bitrate to support real time full-scalability. The experimental results showed that dynamic full-scalability conversion was verified and it was necessary for time varying network condition.

This paper presents an adaptive non-local means denoising algorithm using down-scaled images. This work provides a method to reduce artifacts and information loss around context region by increasing the number of similar patches for high activity region with down-scaled images. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm outperforms the non-local means algorithm more than 1.5 (dB).

In this paper a watermarking algorithm is proposed to optimize the capacity of the digital watermark insertion in an experimental threshold using the characteristics of human visual system(HVS), adaptive scale factors, and weight functions based on discrete wavelet transform. After the original image is decomposed by a 3-level discrete wavelet transform, the watermarks for capacity optimization are inserted into all subbands except the baseband, by applying the important coefficients from the experimental threshold in the wavelet region. The adaptive scale factors and weight functions based on HVS are considered for the capacity optimization of the digital watermark insertion in order to enhance the robustness and invisibility. The watermarks are consisted of gaussian random sequences and detected by correlation. The experimental results showed that this algorithm can preserve a fine image quality against various attacks such as the JPEG lossy compression, noise addition, cropping, blurring, sharpening, linear and non-linear filtering, etc.

In this paper, we propose an adaptive scalable encryption scheme for the layered architecture of SVC video. The proposed method determines an appropriate set of encryption algorithms to be applied for the layers of SVC by considering the importance and priority relationship among the SVC video layers. Unlike the conventional encryption method based on a fixed encryption algorithm for the whole video layers, the proposed method applies differentiated encryption algorithms with different encryption strength the importance of the video layers. Thereupon, higher security could be maintained for the lower video layer including more important data, while lower encryption strength could be applied for the higher video layer with relatively less important data. The effectiveness of the proposed adaptive scalable encryption method is proved by extensive simulations.

Scalable extension of High Efficiency Video Coding (SHVC) standard uses the up-sampled residual data from the base layer to make a residual data in the enhancement layer. This paper describes an efficient algorithm for improving coding gain by using the filtered residual signal of base layer in the Scalable extension of High Efficiency Video Coding (SHVC). The proposed adaptive filter selection mechanism uses the smoothing and sharpening filters to enhance the quality of inter-layer prediction. Based on two filters and the existing up-sampling filter, a rate-distortion (RD)-cost fuction-based competitive scheme is proposed to get better quality of video. Experimental results showed that average BD-rate gains of 1.5%, 2.1%, and 1.7% for Y, U and V components, respectively, were achieved, compared with SHVC reference software 5.0, which is based on HEVC reference model (HM) 13.
