4D Scalable Multi-View Video Coding Using Disparity Compensated View Filtering and Motion Compensated Temporal Filtering

Overview In this paper, a novel framework for scalable multi-view video coding is described. A well known wavelet based scalable coding scheme for single-view video sequences has been adopted and extended to match the specific needs of scalable multi-view video coding. Motion Compensated Temporal Filtering (MCTF) is applied to each video sequence of each camera. The use of a wavelet lifting structure guarantees perfect invertibility of this step and as a consequence of its open-loop architecture, SNR and temporal scalability are attained. Correlations between the temporal subbands of adjacent cameras are reduced by a novel Disparity Compensated View Filtering (DCVF), method which is also lifting based and open-loop to enable view scalability.

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change. Do you want to change too? - What is Telecoms 2.0?
