Distributed Video Coding (DVC) is a new class of video coding techniques with the aim of coding the decentralized video sources. While the Stanford Wyner-Ziv codec is a well-known architecture in DVC literature, one of its main drawbacks is the presence of a feedback channel from the decoder to the encoder. This feedback channel makes the use of the codec impractical in some applications. Since the only application of the feedback channel is in requesting more parity bits from the encoder, it could be omitted if the encoder estimates the required parity bits and sends them at once. In this paper, a new method of bitrate estimation using a neural network trained by a new set of features is proposed. In addition, a Hybrid mode is proposed that reduces computational complexity at the decoder in a conventional Wyner-Ziv codec.

A noise erosion operator based on partial differential equation (PDE) is introduced, which has an excellent ability of noise removal and edge preservation for two-dimensional (2D) gradient data. The operator is applied to estimate a new diffusion coefficient. Experimental results demonstrate that anisotropic diffusion based on this new erosion operator can efficiently reduce noise and sharpen object boundaries.

Feature selection, as a preprocessing step to machine learning, plays a pivotal role in removing irrelevant data, reducing dimensionality and improving performance evaluations. Recent years, sparse representation has become a useful tool for both supervised and unsupervised feature selection. So far, most of these algorithms still have many problems such as large computation load, performance with poor stability. Thus, this paper proposes a new unsupervised feature selection algorithm via sparse representation (UFSSR), with respect to efficiency and effectiveness. Firstly, this paper reconstructs part of data matrix via sparse representation, which makes the proposed algorithm be robust and independent of domain knowledge. Then, to reduce the reconstruction error, a new feature evaluation function is given to rank all features. Theoretical analysis and experiments compared with many popular algorithms on a set of datasets demonstrate the improvements brought by UFSSR.
