Investigation on the human perception can play an important role in video signal processing.
Recently, there has been great interest in incorporating the human perception in video …

Piecewise smooth (PWS) images (eg, depth maps or animation images) contain unique
signal characteristics such as sharp object boundaries and slowly varying interior surfaces …

A real-time tracking algorithm that uses contextual information is described. The method is
capable of simultaneously tracking multiple, non-rigid objects when erratic movement and …

Immersive media, such as free view point video and 360° video, are expected to be
dominant as broadcasting services. The light field (LF) imaging is being considered as a …

New data formats that include both video and the corresponding depth maps, such as
multiview plus depth (MVD), enable new video applications in which intermediate video …

The recent years have witnessed three-dimensional (3-D) video technology to become
increasingly popular, as it can provide high-quality and immersive experience to end users …

This paper presents an efficient depth map coding method based on a newly defined
rendering view distortion function. As compared to the conventional depth map coding in …

In 3D video, texture and supplementary depth data are coded to enable the interpolation of a
required number of synthesized views for multi-view displays in the range of the original …

The 3D video extension of High Efficiency Video Coding (3D-HEVC) exploits texture-depth
redundancies in 3D videos using intercomponent coding tools. It also inherits the same …

The encoding of both texture and depth maps of multiview images, captured by a set of
spatially correlated cameras, is important for any 3-D visual communication system based …
