A video analysis system used to detect events in video streams generally has several processes, including object detection, object trajectories analysis, and recognition of the trajectories by comparison with an a priori trained model. However, these processes do not work well in a complex environment that has many occlusions, mirror effects, and/or shadow effects. We propose a new approach to a context-aware video surveillance system to detect predefined contexts in video streams. The proposed system consists of two modules: a feature extractor and a context recognizer. The feature extractor calculates the moving energy that represents the amount of moving objects in a video stream and the stationary energy that represents the amount of still objects in a video stream. We represent situations and events as motion changes and stationary energy in video streams. The context recognizer determines whether predefined contexts are included in video streams using the extracted moving and stationary energies from a feature extractor. To train each context model and recognize predefined contexts in video streams, we propose and use a new ensemble classifier based on the AdaBoost algorithm, DAdaBoost, which is one of the most famous ensemble classifier algorithms. Our proposed approach is expected to be a robust method in more complex environments that have a mirror effect and/or a shadow effect.

This paper proposes a real-time transferring method of captured video stream to existing handphones without downloading additional software. For real-time transferring of captured vid대 data to handphones, two methods, the WAP based pull-method and the WAP based push-method, are proposed in the paper. Also for transcoding of captured frame into a WBMP image, a threshold setting method which uses the average value of total values of pixels in a scene is proposed. The methods we proposed are implemented in stream engines as video transcoding filter(called WBMPFilter) and video transferring medium(called WirelessMedium). And the experimental system shows 1 frame per 3 seconds transfer of video to existing handphones.

In this paper we present a method to generate the bit stream of static video test patterns for testing the picture quality in DTV system. The proposed user-defined quantization table is suitable for the static video test pattern and for minimizing the deterioration of picture quality by quantization, the underflow or overflow of video buffer generated on the process of coding the static video test pattern is compensated by a adaptive zero stuffing algorithm so that optimal picture quality is implemented. Experimental result showed that the test pattern stream encoded by MPEG-2 software with the proposed algorithm had a stable bit rate and good video quality during the decoding process, which is about 3 dB higher than that of the conventional case.

In this paper,we present an dffcient way to describe the commplex meaning embedded in video data for the cintent-based retrival in a video database.Intead of viewing the data stored in a file as continuous bit stream,we associate the desired interval in the stream with a set of atteibute and value pairs which describe its meaning.Since the meaning of video data can be cimplex and can change dyamically. It is necessary to com-bine the fixed schema of attributes used in the traditional database systrm with a description method through a set of attribute and value pairs that can be defined dynamically.As the cintent of viedo data can be expressed differently according to the view point of a user,it is important ot maintain the meaning of the attribute and value pairs cinsistently for different users.This paper proposes the dffctive way to manage the set of attri-bute and value pairs.In addition,it also describes a way to define a new video presentation by separating a video stream phsycally or by sharing the portion of a bit stream,and the new method can minimize the required storage space.

Recently advances in high-speed networks and multimedia computer technologies allow new types of multimedia applications to manipulate large volumes of multimedia data. However, in the real time and/or the heterogeneous data transmissions, there are many difficulties such as network transmission delay, the implementation difficulties, and so on. To solve these problems, in this paper, we extend the method of the multimedia service design which is proposed by OMG. To do this, we suggest an efficient real time audio/video stream framework, called Smart Explorer, based un CORBA and JMF Java Media API. And we separate the transmission path of control data from that of media data and use RTP/RTCP protocol for efficient real time audio/video transmission. Also we show the appropriate implementation of the audio/video stream system based on our suggested framework Smart Explorer. In the future, we expect our audio/video stream system to be applied to the real time communication software such as broadcasting, distance learning, and video conferencing.

In this paper, a new lip synchronization control method is proposed to achieve very low delay in the video communication. The lip control is so much vital in video communication as delay reduction. In a general way, to control the lip synchronization, both the playtime and capture time calculated from RTP time stamp are used. RTP timestamp is created by stream sender and sent to the receiver along the stream. It is extracted from the received packet by stream receiver to calculate playtime and capture time. In this paper, we propose the method of searching most adjacent corresponding frame of the audio signal, which is assumed to be played with uniform speed. Encoding buffer of stream sender is removed to reduce the buffering delay. Besides, decoder buffer of receiver, which is used to correct the cracked packet, is resulted to process only 3 frames. These mechanisms enable us to achieve ultra low delay less than 100 ms, which is essential to video communication. Through simulations, the proposed method shows below the 100 ms delay and controlled the lip synchronization between audio and video.

This paper presents an implementation of a streaming system which can forward live video stream to multiple users from a Phantom4, which is a drone made by DJI. We constructed the streaming server on Raspberry Pi 3 board for high mobility. Also We implemented the system so that the video stream can be played on any devices if the HTML5 standard web browser is utilized. We compiled C codes of FFmpeg open sources and installed in the Raspberry Pi3 as the streaming server and developed a Java application to execute as the integrated server that controls the other softwares on the streaming server. Also we developed an Android application which receives the live video stream from the drone and sends the streaming server continuously. The implemented system in this paper can successfully stream the live video on 24 frames per second at the resolution of 148x112 in considering the low hardware throughput of the streaming server.

The video shot detection based on video picture type is presented in this paper. The detection algorithm is used MPEG compressed video frame directly, not reconstructed the original image. For shot detection, I and P frame of MPEG video bit stream are classified. The detecting scene cuts at I pictures are detected by reconstructed DC image. While scene cuts at P picture frame by monitoring the percentage of Intra-macroblocks per P picture. Experimental results on the test video bit stream is shown the detection rate of $85\sim98%$ and searching time is 4 times faster than the previously known video shot detection algorithm on the decompressed video shot.

This paper suggests structures of the Object Descriptor and the Elementary Stream Descriptor that provide multi-view video services in 3-Dimensional Audio Video technical standards of current MPEG-4. First, it defines that the structures of the Object Descriptor and the Elementary Stream Descriptor on established MPEG-4 system, then distributes individually, and analyzes that. But extension of established system is inappropriate for providing multi-view audio video services connected transmissions and receptions. And, this paper suggests a structure of new Object Descriptor able to switch viewpoints that considers the correlation between each viewpoints, when multi-view video is transmitted. By means of that, it is able to switch viewpoints according to a requirement of a user in a multi-view video services, and reduce overheads for transmitting information about necessary viewpoint.

VOD(Video On Demand) that provides streaming service according to the user's requirement in real time, consists of the video streaming server and the client system. Since it is very hard to apply the traditional server-client model that a server communicates with many clients through 1:1 connection to VOD system because it requires very high network bandwidth, many researches have been done to address this problem. Batching technique is one of VOD system based on Multicast that requires very small network bandwidth. However, the batching based VOD system has a limitation that it is very hard to provide VCR(Video Cassette Recorder) ability. In this paper, we propose a technique that reduces the required network bandwidth to provide VCR function by using the characteristic of MPEG, one of international video compression standard. In the proposed technique, a new video stream for VCR function is constructed with I pictures that is able to be decoded independently. The new video stream for VCR function is transmitted with the video stream for normal play together in Batching manner. The performance evaluation result shows that the proposed technique not only reduces the required network bandwidth and memory usage but also decreases the CPU usages.
