Distributed video coding technique(DVC) is needed for several applications with low bit rate or low encoding resources. However, since conventional DVC schemes have performance limitations and so as one of the several methods to overcome this problem and to improve the coding efficiency, DVC scheme with the moving information of side information has been developed. Based on this system, in this paper, an efficient reliability estimation is introduced to evaluate the blocks composing of side information and send these blocks location to the encoder side. Then, these enable the encoder to selectively encode and to improve the coding performance. Experimental results show that the proposed scheme performs better than the conventional coding scheme.

Distributed key generation (DKG) with trustless setup is a cryptographic protocol that distributes Shamir secret shares of a private key to participants while keeping the actual private key hidden to the participants. Also, by extending it to a threshold signature protocol, digital signatures can be generated without construction of private keys. This paper proposes a recovery protocol maintaining trustless setup assumptions, in particular to the useful (1,3) share structure. The proposed protocol meets same levels of security requirements with DKG in terms of correctness and secrecy. The protocol can also enable delegation and revocation of digital sign rights for blockchain-based asset management.

Recently, many researches have been focused on multi-view video applications and services such as wireless video surveillance networks, wireless video sensor networks and wireless mobile video. In multi-view video signal processing, to exploit the strong correlation between images acquired by different cameras plays great role in developing a core technique of multi-view video coding. This paper proposes an adaptive multi-view video interpolation technique which is applicable for multi-view distributed video coding without requiring any cooperation amongst the cameras. The proposed algorithm estimates the non-linear moving blocks and employs disparity compensated view prediction, and then fills in the unreliable blocks. Through computer simulations, it is shown that the proposed method outperforms the conventional methods.

With the widespread adoption of blockchain in the field of business, the importance of confidentiality of critical information has been emerging. Although blockchain models solve the security problem regarding integrity threat by sharing transactions and making them public, it is vulnerable in terms of confidentiality. Therefore, a security mechanism to provide confidentiality of critical information and private information of a firm is necessary to utilize block chain in the process of work. In order to solve the problem, we suggest Private blockchain based cryptographic protocol application model using Smart contract commitment scheme of the Ethereum. It can contribute to activation of blockchain services by enabling non-trusted participants to perform businesses through application of smart contract enhanced in terms of confidentiality and integrity to private blockchain.

Recently, most of the video services are usually transmitted in wireless networks. In networks environment, a packet of video is likely to be lost during transmission. For this reason, this paper proposes a new Error Concealment (EC) algorithm. For High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) bitstreams, the proposed algorithm includes Adaptive Prediction Unit-based Motion Vector Extrapolation (APMVE) and Boundary Matching (BM) algorithm, which employs both the temporal and spatial correlation. APMVE adaptively decides a Error Concealment Basic Unit (ECBU) by using the PU information of the previous frame and BM employing the spatial correlation is applied to only unreliable blocks. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm provides the higher subjective quality by reducing blocking artifacts which appear in other existing algorithms.
