Synphony: A video telephony encoding system
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we present a visual telephony system, Synphony, which uses a new coding method based on the re-synthesis of visual speech at the receiver. This method allows the transmission of visual telephony scenes over a very low capacity channel (under 64Kbps). The coding method proposes a new paradigm for sequence coding in which the objective is to re-synthesize smooth sequences coherent with the audio speech signal instead of minimizing the average distortion.

A Machine Learning Approach to No-Reference Objective Video Quality Assessment for High Definition Resources
The video quality assessment must be adapted to the human visual system, which is why researchers have performed subjective viewing experiments in order to obtain the conditions of encoding of video systems to provide the best quality to the user. The objective of this study is to assess the video quality using image features extraction without using reference video. RMSE values and processing ...
متن کاملAssessing and Improving User QoE of Video Telephony
Video telephony is an important application. It is extremely challenging to deliver good user Quality of Experience (QoE) over the best-effort Internet. In this paper, we summarize our previous work on measurement study of commercial video telephony solutions and outline our current and future work on assessing and improving user QoE of video telephony. 1 Background and Motivation The Internet ...
متن کاملEfficient Media Synchronization Method for Video Telephony System
In this letter, we derive an efficient audio/video synchronization method for video telephony. For synchronization, this method does not require any further RTCP packet processing except for the first one. The derived decision rule is far more compact than the conventional method. This decision rule is incorporated in an actual video telephony system adopting Texas Instruments (TI) OMAP 1510 pr...

Multiple description (MD) coding has evolved as a promising technique for promoting error resiliency of multimedia system in real-time application programs over error-prone communicational channels. Although multiple description lattice vector quantization (MDCLVQ) is an efficient method for transmitting reliable data in the context of potential error channels, this method doesn’t consider disc...
متن کاملVery low bit rate wireless video telephony using face coding
In this thesis a novel video telephony compression scheme is proposed, implemented and discussed. The scheme generates a talking head sequence from a head and shoulder video telephony sequence. The generated talking head mimics the facial expressions of the individual depicted in the head and shoulder input sequence. The scheme is based on model based coding and more specifically based on an ei...
