Multiview video coding using cuboid data compression. This project investigates novel approaches to multiview video coding that use new data compression techniques and explicit occlusion handling. These new approaches complement the state-of-the-art, improving interactivity with instantaneous view change and VCR functionality, reducing encoding complexity, and increasing compression efficiency.
Adaptation of Vision Model to Perceptual Digital Picture Compression. This project spearheads research in the next generation digital picture compression technology, placing Australia an undisputed leader in this area of frontier technology. It will generate intellectual property and software prototype systems, which can be readily transferred into a vast number of visual communication and service applications, feeding into and rejuvenating national high-tech industries. These applications incl ....Adaptation of Vision Model to Perceptual Digital Picture Compression. This project spearheads research in the next generation digital picture compression technology, placing Australia an undisputed leader in this area of frontier technology. It will generate intellectual property and software prototype systems, which can be readily transferred into a vast number of visual communication and service applications, feeding into and rejuvenating national high-tech industries. These applications include digital photography for fine art, medical imaging, picture archive and communication systems for telemedicine and rural health care systems, high quality digital picture, video and cinematic experience, crime prevention, border control, security and surveillance systems.Read moreRead less
Efficient multi-view video coding with cuboids and base anchored models. This project aims to address current deficiencies in multi-view video coding technology to achieve the ultra-compression efficiency demanded by increasing display resolutions and synchronised viewpoints. The project expects to generate new knowledge, by moving from the current pixel-centric approach to methods that concentrate information common to many view-frames. The project is expected to improve compression of audio-vi ....Efficient multi-view video coding with cuboids and base anchored models. This project aims to address current deficiencies in multi-view video coding technology to achieve the ultra-compression efficiency demanded by increasing display resolutions and synchronised viewpoints. The project expects to generate new knowledge, by moving from the current pixel-centric approach to methods that concentrate information common to many view-frames. The project is expected to improve compression of audio-visual services that are of great interest to international standards bodies and industry, while facilitating free interaction and augmented reality. This project will provide significant benefits to broadcast, entertainment, surveillance and health industries and position Australia as a world leader in this field.Read moreRead less
