Designing static object detection systems that are able to incorporate user interaction conveys a great benefit in many surveillance applications, since some correctly detected static objects can be considered to have no interest by a human operator. Interactive systems allow the user to include these decisions into the system, making automated surveillance systems more attractive and comfortable...
Sprite-based video coding offers higher compression efficiency than conventional block-based hybrid video coders. In sprite coding a sequence is divided into a model of its background, i.e. a so-called background sprite image, and a foreground object sequence. These are then encoded and transmitted to the receiver. At the decoder the output video sequence is synthesized using content previously transmitted...
It is well known that video material with a static background allows easier segmentation than that with a moving background. One approach to segmentation of sequences with a moving background is to use preprocessing to create a static background, after which conventional background subtraction techniques can be used for segmenting foreground objects. It has been recently shown that global motion estimation...
We present a new approach for classifying MPEG-2 video sequences as dasiasportpsila or dasianon-sportpsila by analyzing new high-level audiovisual features of consecutive frames in real-time. This is part of the well-known video-genre-classification problem, where popular TV-broadcast genres like cartoon, commercial, music video, news and sports are studied. Such applications have also been discussed...
The latest standardized hybrid video codec, H.264/AVC, significantly outperforms earlier video coding standards. Despite combining improved and new algorithms within this codec, it is still possible to find methods which lead to a higher coding efficiency. We tackle the prediction problem adding a new prediction mode to the codec. It has been shown that the generation of a background sprite image...
In recent years advanced video codecs have been developed, such as standardized in MPEG-4. The latest video codec H.264/AVC provides compression performance superior to previous standards, but is based on the same basic motion-compensated-DCT architecture. However, for certain types of video, it has been shown that it is possible to outperform the H.264/AVC using an object-based video codec. Towards...
We present a new approach for classifying MPEG-2 video sequences as dasiacartoonpsila, dasiacommercialpsila, dasiamusicpsila, dasianewspsila or dasiasportpsila by analyzing specific, high-level audio-visual features of consecutive frames in real-time. This is part of the well-known video-genre-classification problem, where popular TV-broadcast genres are studied. Such applications have also been discussed...
