On-line adaptive video sequence transmission based on generation and transmisión of descriptions
Proceedings of the 26th Picture Coding Symposium, PCS 2007, Lisbon, Portugal, November 2007This paper presents a system to transmit the information from a static surveillance camera in an adaptive way, from low to higher bit-rate, based on the on-line generation of descriptions. The proposed system is based on a server/client model: the server is placed in the surveillance area and the client is placed in a user side.
The server analyzes the video sequence to detect the regions of activity (motion analysis) and the corresponding descriptions (mainly MPEG-7 moving regions) are generated together with the textures of moving regions and the associated background image.
Depending on the available bandwidth, different levels of transmission are specified, ranging from just sending the descriptions generated to a transmission with all the
associated images corresponding to the moving objects and background.This work is partially supported by Cátedra Infoglobal-UAM para Nuevas Tecnologías de video aplicadas a la seguridad.

Personalized Cinemagraphs using Semantic Understanding and Collaborative Learning
Cinemagraphs are a compelling way to convey dynamic aspects of a scene. In
these media, dynamic and still elements are juxtaposed to create an artistic
and narrative experience. Creating a high-quality, aesthetically pleasing
cinemagraph requires isolating objects in a semantically meaningful way and
then selecting good start times and looping periods for those objects to
minimize visual artifacts (such a tearing). To achieve this, we present a new
technique that uses object recognition and semantic segmentation as part of an
optimization method to automatically create cinemagraphs from videos that are
both visually appealing and semantically meaningful. Given a scene with
multiple objects, there are many cinemagraphs one could create. Our method
evaluates these multiple candidates and presents the best one, as determined by
a model trained to predict human preferences in a collaborative way. We
demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach with multiple results and a user
study.Comment: To appear in ICCV 2017. Total 17 pages including the supplementary

Martínez, "On the effect of motion segmentation techniques in description based adaptive video transmission", in AVSS '07: Proceedings of the 2007 IEEE Conference on Advanced Video and Signal Based Surveillance, 2007, p. 359-364This paper presents the results of analysing the effect of different motion segmentation techniques in a system that transmits the information captured by a static surveillance camera in an adaptative way based on the on-line generation of descriptions and their descriptions at different levels of detail. The video sequences are analyzed to detect the regions of activity (motion analysis) and to differentiate them from the background, and the corresponding descriptions (mainly MPEG-7 moving regions) are generated together with the textures of the moving regions and the associated background image. Depending on the available bandwidth, different levels of transmission are specified, ranging from just sending the descriptions generated to a transmission with all the associated images corresponding to the moving objects and background. We study the effect of three motion segmentation algorithms in several aspects such as accurate segmentation, size of the descriptions generated, computational efficiency and reconstructed data quality.This work is partially supported by Cátedra Infoglobal-UAM para Nuevas Tecnologías de video aplicadas a la seguridad.
