چکیده

We use unequal amounts of explicit channel coding for generalized multiple description coding. Our solution can use any progressive source coder and it disperses information equally among the descriptions. Image quality improves gradually with the number of received descriptions. Our approach surpasses previously published results by a signiicant margin.

Protection of Regions of Interest against Data Loss in a Generalized Multiple Description Framework

We present a simple and ef£cient scheme for protecting a region of interest (ROI) in an image sent across lossy communication networks. To increase the probability that the ROI is received with high quality, we extend the unequal loss protection framework of MD-SPIHT [1] by adding more redundancy to the ROI than to other parts of the image. The ROI is therefore heavily protected at the expense ...

Spiht for Generalized Multiple Description Coding

We present a simple and eecient scheme for using the Set Partitioning in Hierarchical Trees (SPIHT) image compression algorithm 1] in a generalized multiple description framework. To combat packet loss, controlled amounts of redundancy are added to the original data during the compression process. Unequal loss protection is implemented by varying the amount of redundancy with the importance of ...

Unequal loss protection and multiple description coding: a performance comparison

In this paper we present a performance comparison between multiple description coding and unequal loss protection as tools to encode a layered source. We address a rate-distortion-based multiple description coding scheme and a stateof-the-art unequal loss protection algorithm based on Reed Solomon FEC codes. The comparison is performed using as a case study JPEG 2000 coded images transmitted ov...

A Method to Reduce Effects of Packet Loss in Video Streaming Using Multiple Description Coding

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...

Sliding-window packetization for unequal loss protection based multiple description coding

Unequal loss protection (ULP) for transmitting embedded bitstream over packet erasure networks has been extensively studied. However, most of the existing works focused on rate−distortion optimization of individual encoding unit, e.g., a group of pictures (GOP), which may lead to noticeable video quality variations due to varying channel conditions. In this paper, a novel sliding−window packeti...
