Proposed is a novel side information refinement technique for Wyner-Ziv video frames in distributed video coding using sequential motion compensation with luminance and chrominance information for a given bit plane to update the side information for the next bit plane. Simulation results show that over 3 dB PSNR gain can be obtained with the proposed algorithm over the best available pixel domain Wyner Ziv codec from the literature [Natario et al.] at the same bit rate.
To minimize the errors of the reconstructed values and improve the quality of decoded image, an efficient reconstruction scheme for transform domain Wyner-Ziv (WZ) videocoding is proposed. The reconstruction scheme...

To minimize the errors of the reconstructed values and improve the quality of decoded image, an efficient reconstruction scheme for transform domain Wyner-Ziv (WZ) videocoding is proposed. The reconstruction scheme exploits temporal correlation of the coefficient bands, the WZ decoded bits stream and the side information efficiently. When side information is outside the decoded quantization bin, the reconstructed value is derived using expectation of the WZ decoded bit stream and the side information. When side information is within the decoded quantization bin, the reconstructed value is derived using the biased predictor. Simulation results show that the proposed reconstruction scheme gains up to 1.32 dB compared with the commonly used boundary reconstruction scheme at the same bit rates and similar computation cost.

In this paper, we adopt constrained relaxation for distributed multi-view videocoding (DMVC). The novel framework integrates the graph-based segmentation and matching to generate inter-view correlated side information without knowing the camera parameters. Moreover, graph-based representations of multi-view images are incorporated to form more distinctive feature constraints. The sparse data as a good hypothesis space aim for a best matching optimization of inter-view side information with compact syndromes, from inferred relaxed coset. The plausible filling-in from a priori feature constraints between neighboring views could reinforce a promising compensation to inter-view side information generation for joint multi-view decoding. In order to find distinctive feature matching with a more stable approximation, PCA-SIFT and TPS (thin plate spline) are adopted to reduce the dimension of SIFT descriptors and construct a more accurate inter-view motion model. The experimental results validate the high estimation precision and the rate-distortion improvements.

Wyner-Ziv (WZ) coding of video utilizes simple encoders and highly complex decoders. A transcoder from a WZ codec to a traditional codec can potentially increase the range of applications for WZ codecs. We present a transcoder scheme from the most popular WZ codec architecture to a differential pulse code modulation/discrete cosine transform codec. As a proof of concept, we implemented this transcoder using a simple pixeldomain WZ codec and the standard H.263+. The transcoder design aims at reducing complexity as a large amount of computation is saved by reusing the motion estimation, calculated at the side information generation process, and the I-frame streams. New approaches are used to generate side information and to map motion vectors for the transcoder. Results are presented to demonstrate the transcoder performance.

Mobile-to-mobile video communications require both an encoder and a decoder to have low complexity. distributed video coding (DVC) shifts the complexity to the decoder, resulting in a low-complexity encoder suitable for wireless transmission of videos. However, high complexity at the DVC decoder side makes it difficult for resource-constrained mobile devices to perform decoding. Proposed is a solution that is called a DVC bitstream reorganiser. This reorganiser estimates block-wise motion vectors and sends the motion information and the parity data required for decoding to the decoder which reduces the complexity associated with side information generation and repetitive channel decoding. Simulations demonstrate that the decoding speed of the proposed method is 10 to 25 times faster than before.

distributed video coding (DVC) is an emerging videocoding technology that utilises information theory for distributed sources to build a very simple encoder. In the DVC codec, the reconstruction function for the Wyner-Ziv (WZ) frame is one of the most important modules for improving the quality of the decoded image. An efficient reconstruction algorithm is proposed that uses neighbour pixel information. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm improves the quality of the decoded image without an increase in the bit rate.

distributed video coding (DVC) is one of the fastest growing coding techniques in the current signal processing world. It has its outstanding low complex encoder which is essential for some applications in the consumer market. Driven by the above motive, in this paper we propose a novel side information refinement technique for Wyner-Ziv video frames in DVC. When a bit plane is decoded, it is used to replace the corresponding bit plane in the side information and used for motion estimation and compensation to up date the side information. Then the information for the next bit plane is extracted from the updated side information and is sent to the turbo decoder as in a conventional DVC decoder. This process is repeated until all bit planes are extracted. This technique can be employed with almost all the side information generation techniques from simplest conventional pixel interpolation to advanced techniques such as bi-directional motion estimation and spatial motion smoothing (BiMESS) [8]. Simulation results show that over 1.4dB PSNR gain can be obtained with the proposed algorithm over the BiMESS smoothing algorithm at the same bit rate.

distributed Source coding (DSC), formulated thirty years ago, is lately witnessing a great research effort. This effort is encouraged by emerging new applications that could greatly benefit from the properties inherent to DSC, like low complexity encoders and embedded error resilience. Among the challenging topics related to DSC there is the generation of the Side Information, an estimation made by the decoder of the information being decoded. This paper quickly summarizes the theoretical bases of DSC and then focuses on the essential task of generating the Side Information, by developing the model-based method drafted by the authors on a previous publication. It is shown that the application of model-based Side Information generation techniques on top of current state of the art DSC-based video codecs provides an improvement of 0.5 to 0.75dB over a wide range of bit-rates. Comparisons against H.264 are also provided.

video data is currently one of the mostly used/desired data that circulates today's digital environment. The paper aims at providing an overview on the emerging trends in the theoretical research that sustains the development of future, more efficient, acquisition, compression and transmission architectures for video. The focus is on delivering a good starting point in what compressive sampling and distributed video coding are all about and infer on scenarios that will mostly benefit from their advancement. It is concluded that 3D video and multi-purpose wireless mobile devices are some of the key emerging technologies that are likely to embrace these important theoretical results and transfer them into practice.

In this paper, we propose a distributed video coding (DVC) paradigm based on lattice vector quantization in wavelet domain. In this framework, we use a fine and a coarse lattice vector quantizer to wavelet coefficients and the difference of two lattice quantizers is coded by Turbo encoder. At decoder, side information is gradually updated by motion-compensated refinement. The refinement is built on partially decoded current frame and we give its matching strategy. Due to the refinement, burden of Turbo encoding is cut down, bit rate is saved and the reconstruction is improved to some degree.
