Distributed video coding for wireless video sensor networks: a review of the state-of-the-art architectures
Distributed video coding (DVC) is a relatively new video coding architecture originated from two fundamental theorems namely, Slepian–Wolf and Wyner–Ziv. Recent research developments have made DVC attractive for applications in the emerging domain of wireless video sensor networks (WVSNs). This paper reviews the state-of-the-art DVC architectures with a focus on understanding their opportunities and gaps in addressing the operational requirements and application needs of WVSNs
Demo : distributed video coding applications in wireless multimedia sensor networks
Novel distributed video coding (DVC) architectures developed by the IBBT DVC group realize state-of-the-art video coding efficiency under stringent energy restrictions, while supporting error-resilience and scalability. Therefore, these architectures are particularly attractive for application scenarios involving low-complexity energy-constrained wireless visual sensors. This demo presents the scenarios, which are considered to be the most promising areas of integration for IBBT's DVC systems, considering feasibility and commercial applicability
DRASIC: Distributed Recurrent Autoencoder for Scalable Image Compression
We propose a new architecture for distributed image compression from a group
of distributed data sources. The work is motivated by practical needs of
data-driven codec design, low power consumption, robustness, and data privacy.
The proposed architecture, which we refer to as Distributed Recurrent
Autoencoder for Scalable Image Compression (DRASIC), is able to train
distributed encoders and one joint decoder on correlated data sources. Its
compression capability is much better than the method of training codecs
separately. Meanwhile, the performance of our distributed system with 10
distributed sources is only within 2 dB peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) of
the performance of a single codec trained with all data sources. We experiment
distributed sources with different correlations and show how our data-driven
methodology well matches the Slepian-Wolf Theorem in Distributed Source Coding
(DSC). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first data-driven DSC
framework for general distributed code design with deep learning
Video Compression for Camera Networks: A Distributed Approach
The problem of finding efficient communications techniques to distribute multi-view video content across different devices and users in a network is receiving a great attention in the last years. Much interest in particular has been devoted recently to the so called field of Distributed Video Coding (DVC). After briefly reporting traditional approaches to multiview coding, this chapter will introduce the field of DVC for multi-camera systems. The theoretical background of Distributed Source Coding (DSC) is first concisely presented
and the problem of the application of DSC principles to the case of video sources is then analyzed. The topic is presented discussing approaches to the problem of DVC in both
single-view and in multi-view applications
On the Design of Perceptual MPEG-Video Encryption Algorithms
In this paper, some existing perceptual encryption algorithms of MPEG videos
are reviewed and some problems, especially security defects of two recently
proposed MPEG-video perceptual encryption schemes, are pointed out. Then, a
simpler and more effective design is suggested, which selectively encrypts
fixed-length codewords (FLC) in MPEG-video bitstreams under the control of
three perceptibility factors. The proposed design is actually an encryption
configuration that can work with any stream cipher or block cipher. Compared
with the previously-proposed schemes, the new design provides more useful
features, such as strict size-preservation, on-the-fly encryption and multiple
perceptibility, which make it possible to support more applications with
different requirements. In addition, four different measures are suggested to
provide better security against known/chosen-plaintext attacks.Comment: 10 pages, 5 figures, IEEEtran.cl
