In this survey, we present state-of-the-art bitrate adaptation algorithms for HTTP adaptive
streaming (HAS). As a key distinction from other streaming approaches, the bitrate …

This paper addresses the problem of similar image retrieval, especially in the setting of large-
scale datasets with millions to billions of images. The core novel contribution is an approach …

The recently developed video multi-method assessment fusion (VMAF) framework integrates
multiple quality-aware features to accurately predict the video quality. However, the VMAF …

Remote physiological measurement has great potential in healthcare and affective
computing applications. Imaging photoplethysmography (iPPG) leverages digital cameras to …

Adaptive Bitrate (ABR) video streaming is widely used for over-the-top (OTT) video delivery.
Recently, streaming providers have been moving towards using Variable Bitrate (VBR) …

We introduce the concept of rate-aware deep perceptual preprocessing (DPP) for video
encoding. DPP makes a single pass over each input frame in order to enhance its visual …

Video transcoding is the process of encoding an initial video sequence into multiple
sequences of different bitrates, resolutions, and video standards, so that it can be viewed on …

This work presents a coding efficiency evaluation of the recently published first release of
the video coding scheme of the Alliance for Open Media (AOM), so called AOM/AV1, in …

Streaming videos over cellular networks is highly challenging. Since cellular data is a
relatively scarce resource, many video and network providers offer options for users to …

In the typical transcoding pipeline for adaptive video streaming, raw videos are pre-chunked
and pre-encoded according to a set of resolution-bitrate or resolution-quality pairs on the …
