360-degree video streaming technologies have been widely developed to provide immersive virtual reality (VR) experiences. However, high computational power and bandwidth are required to transmit and render high-quality 360-degree video through a head-mounted display (HMD). One way to overcome this problem is by transmitting high-quality viewport areas. This paper therefore proposes a motion-constrained tile set (MCTS)-based tile extractor for versatile video coding (VVC). The proposed extractor extracts high-quality viewport tiles, which are simulcasted with low-quality whole video to respond to unexpected movements by the user. The experimental results demonstrate a savings of 24.81% in the bjøntegaard delta rate (BD-rate) saving for the luma peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) compared to the rate obtained using a VVC anchor without tiled streaming.

In this paper, we propose an efficient image size selection method for video-based point cloud compression. The current MPEG video-based point cloud compression reference encoding process configures a threshold on the size of images while converting point cloud data into images. Because the converted image is compressed and restored by the legacy video codec, the size of the image is one of the main components in influencing the compression efficiency. If the image size can be made smaller than the image size determined by the threshold, compression efficiency can be improved. Here, we studied how to improve the compression efficiency by selecting the best-fit image size generated during video-based point cloud compression. Experimental results show that the proposed method can reduce the encoding time by 6 percent without loss of coding performance compared to the test model 15.0 version of video-based point cloud encoder.

This paper describes a character retrieval system for TV programs and a set of novel algorithms for detecting and recognizing faces for the system. Our character retrieval system consists of two main components: Face Register and Face Recognizer. The Face Register detects faces in video frames and then guides users to register the detected faces of interest into the database. The Face Recognizer displays the appearance interval of each character on the timeline interface and the list of scenes with the names of characters that appear on each scene. These two components also provide a function to modify incorrect results. which is helpful to provide accurate character retrieval services. In the proposed face detection and recognition algorithms. we reduce the computation time without sacrificing the recognition accuracy by using the DCT/LDA method for face feature extraction. We also develop the character retrieval system in the form of plug-in. By plugging in our system to a cataloguing system. the metadata about the characters in a video can be automatically generated. Through this system, we can easily realize sophisticated on-demand video services which provide the search of scenes of a specific TV star.

As the demand for video streaming has been rapidly increasing recently, video streaming schemes for increasing the efficiency of radio resource has attracted a lot of attention. In this paper, we propose an adaptive video streaming scheme to enhance the efficiency of video streaming by using receivers' caching capability. The proposed streaming scheme can transmit video data on a broadcast basis even when two clients request different video data, only if specific conditions satisfied, while existing schemes can only transmit video data on a broadcast basis only when two clients request the same video data. In this paper, we mathematically derive the average transmission time of the proposed scheme and the approximation of the average transmission time. The accuracy of the mathematical analysis is verified by simulations. Mathematical analysis and simulation results show that the proposed scheme can significantly reduce the average transmission time, compared to the existing scheme.

In this paper, a method for transmitting layered SVC streams in differentiated MBSFN channels is presented. Scalable coded video streams are transmitted in modulation channels of different efficiency that it achieves reduced resource consumption compared to non-scalable AVC stream. When utilizing with Raptor FEC, the combined effect is enhanced service coverage with providing minimum video quality at the edge of the service area, than the case of AVC.
