Morphological operators for very low bit rate video coding
This paper deals with the use of some morphological tools for video coding at very low bit rates. Rather than describing a complete coding algorithm, the purpose of this paper is to focus on morphological connected operators and segmentation tools that have proved to be attractive for compression.Peer ReviewedPostprint (published version
An efficient error resilience scheme based on wyner-ziv coding for region-of-Interest protection of wavelet based video transmission
In this paper, we propose a bandwidth efficient error resilience scheme for wavelet based video
transmission over wireless channel by introducing an additional Wyner-Ziv (WZ) stream to protect region of
interest (ROI) in a frame. In the proposed architecture, the main video stream is compressed by a generic
wavelet domain coding structure and passed through the error prone channel without any protection.
Meanwhile, the predefined ROI area related wavelet coefficients obtained after an integer wavelet transform
will be specially protected by WZ codec in an additional channel during transmission. At the decoder side, the error-prone ROI related wavelet coefficients will be used as side information to help decoding the WZ stream. Different size of WZ bit streams can be applied in order to meet different bandwidth condition and different
requirement of end users. The simulation results clearly revealed that the proposed scheme has distinct advantages in saving bandwidth comparing with fully applied FEC algorithm to whole video stream and in the meantime offer the robust transmission over error prone channel for certain video applications
