Motivated by the growing use of multimedia services and the explosion of multimedia collections, efficient retrieval from large-scale multimedia data has become very important in multimedia content analysis and management. In this paper, a novel ranking algorithm is proposed for video retrieval. First, video content is represented by the global and local features and second, multiple correspond...

Multimedia applications will play a crucial role in future high-speed networks. Despite improvements in network switching and transmission capacity, the anticipated volume of multimedia traac will remain a challenge, and any results which characterize multimedia data streams will be useful in understanding how to improve their distribution over digital networks. Clariication of the statistical ...

this study concerns to analyze femininity identity by psychoanalysis approach of lacan. psychoanalysis is certainly one of the most areas of debate within feminist artists. the main question of this research is: “how does video art show the femininity identity?” so, initially we tried to categorize different influential concepts of lacan’s psychoanalysis which is necessary to get to know his at...

This paper presents a server-based remote walkthrough system. The client is assumed to be a thin client, like a handset or a mobile device, with no strong processor but with some embedded video chip. The server holds the large environment, generates the frames, encodes and transmits them to the client. The encoded frames are transmitted as a video stream to the client, which then decodes the st...

We summarize a recent mobile video quality assessment (VQA) database that we have created which incorporates a wide variety of distortions including uniform compression and wireless packet loss, along with dynamically varying distortions that change as a user views a video on his mobile device. We evaluate a large number of objective image and video quality assessment (IQA/VQA) algorithms with ...

The broad challenge in my view is to exploit multi-lingual, multimedia information from both web and TV video to allow broader understanding of different ideological, social, and cultural perspectives in different sources, for a wide variety of applications. This will involve the judicious analysis of the text and video features using a variety of machine learning and language analysis methods,...

A PAL-video-camera (Toshiba ACM 413 E with 2,2 mm lens) and a HMD have been connected to a Silicon Graphics Workstation O2 (SGI). As HMD a Clip-on display (MircoOptical) with a 640 x 480 resolution has been taken. The Clip-on display can be used like other HMDs in video see-through mode. It works like a little monitor in front of the user’s eyes which covers just a small part of his field of vi...

We describe the goals of the ATTEST project, which started in March 2002 as part of the Information Society Technologies (IST) programme, sponsored by the European Commission. In the 2-year project, several industrial and academic partners cooperate towards a flexible, 2D-compatible and commercially feasible 3DTV system for broadcast environments. An entire 3D-video chain will be developed. We ...

This paper proposes the design and development of Moving Picture Experts Group-2 (MPEG-2) Video Decoder to offer flexible and effective utilization of bandwidth services. The decoder is capable of decoding the MPEG-2 bit stream on a single host machine. The present decoder is designed to be simple, but yet effectively reconstruct the video from MPEG-2 bit stream. The designed MPEG-2 video decod...
