Variable wireless channel is a big challenge for real-time video applications, and the rate adaptation of realtime video streaming becomes a hot topic. Intra-video coding is important for high-quality video communication and industrial video applications. In this paper, we proposed a novel adaptive scheme for real-time video transmission with intra-only coding over a wireless network. The key idea of this scheme is to estimate the instantaneous remaining capacity of the network to adjust the quality of the next several video frames, which not only can keep low queuing delay and ensure video quality, but also can respond to bandwidth changes quickly. We compare our scheme with three different schemes in the video transmission system. The experimental results show that our scheme has higher bandwidth utilization and faster bandwidth change response, while maintaining low queuing delay.

Multi-view video has recently gained much attraction from academic and commercial fields because it can deliver the immersive viewing of natural scenes. This paper presents multi-view video processing being composed of intermediate view reconstruction (IVR), graphics composition, and multi-view video viewer. First we generate virtual views between multi-view cameras using depth and texture images of the input videos. Then we mix graphic objects to the generated view images. The multi-view video viewer is developed to examine the reconstructed images and composite images. As well, it can provide users with some special effects of multi-view video. We present experimental results that validate our proposed method and show that graphic objects could become the inalienable part of the multi-view video.

In recent years the demand for digital video and image communications has been increased tremendously. On the other hand, video communications requires very much bandwidth in comparison with other information types such as text and data. Thus to adapt with the bandwidth-limited channels, especially wireless channels, video source must be compressed extremely. A new video coding standard namely H.26L is being developed by Joint Video Team (JVT). In this paper performance of H.26L is analyzed in an AWGN environment.

This paper discusses a most suitable wireless communications system for subway trains on condition that a geo-spatial video system is implemented in subway trains. Geo-spatial video system for subway trains refers to the device that can transfers the images captured by cameras within a subway station building or in and around a subway track to on coming trains wirelessly, which allows the operator in operating room to monitor the state of a platform and a subway track, the flow of passengers, and the condition of passengers getting on and off. To minimize the problem, secure civil safety and prevent accidents and calamity from occurring, a geo-spatial video system for subway trains has been increasingly introduced. The wireless communications systems for GVS for subway trains involve HF(High Frequency), IR(Infra Red), M/W(Micro Wave), wireless LAN approaches. Each has its own strengths/weaknesses, and different vendors have different technology.

본 논문에서는 MPEG 의 멀티미디어 응용 표준인 MAF(Multimedia Application Format)를 기반으로, 효율적인 비디오 콘텐츠의 검색 및 활용을 위한 통합 미디어 구조, 즉 비디오 MAF 를 제안한다. 제안하는 비디오 MAF 는 ISO 미디어 포맷을 기반으로 하고 단일의 비주얼 스트림과 다중 음성을 지원하기 위한 다수의 오디오 스트림, 내용기반의 정보를 포함하는 메타데이터, 그리고 비디오 콘텐츠의 대표 이미지를 동시에 포함하는 구조이다. 제안하는 파일포맷의 유용성을 검증하기 위해 비디오 MAF 로 생성 및 해석할 수 있는 부호기(encoder)와 복호기(decoder)를 설계하고 구현하여, 통합 미디어에 내재된 메타데이터를 이용한 효율적인 검색과 멀티트랙의 오디오 스트림을 활용한 다중 음성에 대한 지원이 가능함을 확인하였다. 또한 내재된 대표이미지는 비디오 콘텐츠에 대한 브라우징이 효과적으로 활용됨을 확인하였다.

In this paper, we present a method to customize the ground color in outdoor sports video to provide TV viewers with a better viewing experience or subjective satisfaction. This issue, related to content personalization, is becoming critical with the advent of mobile TV and interactive TV. In outdoor sports video, such as soccer video, it is sometimes observed that the ground color is not satisfactory to viewers. In this work, the proposed algorithm is focused on customizing the ground color to deliver a better viewing experience for viewers. The algorithm comprises three modules: ground detection, shot classification, and ground color customization. We customize the ground color by considering the difference between ground colors from both input video and the target ground patch. Experimental results show that the proposed scheme offers useful tools to provide a more comfortable viewing experience and that it is amenable to real-time performance, even in a software-based implementation.

본 논문에서는 암호화된 Scalable Video Coding (SVC) 비트스트림에서의 조건적 접근제어을 위한 키 관리 기법을 제안한다. 스케일러블 비디오 코딩 기술은 한번 인코딩 후 비트스트림 추출을 통해 다양한 확장성(scalabbility)을 가지는 비디오를 생성 할 수 있는 기술로 확장하는 단위마다 다른 키로 암호화 하여 조건적 접근제어를 구성 할 수 있다. 그러나 기존의 조건적 접근제어 기술은 암호화 시 복수의 키가 필요하며 이는 키의 관리와 분배에 어려움을 준다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 기존의 스케일러블 코딩기법에서 조건적 접근제어를 위한 키 관리기법을 살펴보고 SVC 의 확장 구조에 맞는 키 관리 기법을 제안한다. 제안한 방법은 SVC 를 이용한 스트리밍 테스트베드에서 구현되어, 조건적 접근제어를 위한 키 관리기능의 유용성을 확인하였다.

Significant attention has recently been drawn to digital home photo albums that use face detection technology. The tendency can be found in home photo albums that people prefer to allocate concerned objects in the center of the image rather than the boundary when they take a picture. To improve detection performance and speed that are important factors of face detection task, this paper proposes a face detection method that takes spatial context information into consideration. Experiments were performed to verify the usefulness of the proposed method and results indicate that the proposed face detection method can efficiently reduce the false positive rate as well as the runtime of face detection.

In this letter, we propose a new functionality to scalable video coding (SVC), that is, the support of multiple region of interests (ROIs) for heterogeneous display resolution. The main objective of SVC is to provide temporal, spatial, and quality scalability of an encoded bitstream. The ROI is an area that is semantically important to a particular user, especially users with heterogeneous display resolutions. Less transmission bandwidth is needed compared to when the entire region is transmitted/decoded and then sub-sampled or cropped. To support multiple ROIs in SVC, we adopt flexible macroblock ordering (FMO), a tool defined in H.264, and based on it, we propose a way to encode and, independently, decode ROIs. The proposed method is implemented on the joint scalable video model (JSVM) and its functionality verified.

One of the main problems associated with MANETs is that mobility and the associated route discovery and maintenance procedures of reactive routing protocols cause severe interruptions on real-time video streams. Some of these interruptions are too large to be concealed using any sort of video technology, resulting in communications breaks unpleasant for the final end user. We present a solution for enhanced video transmission that increases route stability by using an improved route discovery process based on the DSR routing protocol, along with traffic splitting algorithms and a preventive route discovery mechanism. We also present some video adaptative mechanisms that improve the overall performance of multipath routing in terms of video data replication and video packet splitting strategies. Combining our proposals, we achieve up to 97% less interruptions on communication with high mobility and over 1.2 dB of improvements in terms of video distortion.
