This paper reviews various bitstream syntax and parser description (BSPD) languages used in MPEG multimedia standards. Traditionally, the bitstream syntax and semantics have been described in human-readable form. Several languages have been developed to describe the bitstream syntax using a computer-readable language and allow the automatic generation of bitstream parsing function from the description. The languages were designed for different objectives and applications but have a range of commonalities in functionality. The aim of this paper is to provide a historical overview of BSPD languages. The background and target application of the BSPD languages are reviewed. In addition, the technical features of each languages, including the linguistic basis (e.g., XML-based) and parser generation method, are discussed and evaluated. In addition, previous studies based on each language are introduced and categorized according to their objectives. Finally, the relevant technical issues that suggest the direction of the future researches are reported.

In this paper, we propose a novel mixing algorithm for multiple video streams, which can guarantee low complexity and low end-to-end delay. In the propose algorithm, we change the syntax bitstream in the compressed domain. And we mix the H.264/AVC video streams by coded slice unit. The syntax bitstream for a mixing changes according to the arrangement of videos streams in which it organizes the mixing screen layout. Experimental results show more than 4 video streams could be mixed at high speed. Moreover, it could display in the player which it supports the standard H.264/AVC without the picture quality loss.

This paper proposes an algorithm to detect persons in bitstream domain by skipping a reconstruction picture process in HEVC decoding. A new 3-channel feature extraction map is introduced in this paper by modelling the relationship between bits per CU density, average PU shape in CU, and total transform coefficients in CU from syntax elements. A state-of-the-art of YOLOv3 detection algorithm is used to detect and localize person on extracted feature maps. Based on the experimental results, the proposed person detection framework can achieve mAP of 0.68 and be able to find persons on feature maps. In addition, the proposed person detection can save decoding time about 60% by removing reconstruction picture process.

MPEG-2 achieves high compression radio, by exploiting the temporal and spatial correlations in real image sequence, using the motion compensated prediction and the transform coding, respectively. However, as the image sequence is more highly compressed, the encoded bitstream becomes more vulnerable to transmission error over the noisy channels. Furthermore, er개rs in the headers are fatal to decoding processes, because the header parameters in the video coding standard include a lot of important information connected to the syntax elements, fables, and decoding process. In this paper, we propose a new error resilience method using LSB coding for header parameters in MPEG-2 coded video transmissions. The experimental results for football and susie video sequence demonstrate that the proposed error resilience method for header parameters in MPEG-2 bitstream has good performance.

There are channel errors when video data are transmitted between encoder and decoder. These channel errors would make decoded image incorrect, so it is very important to detect and recover channel errors. This paper proposes a method of error detection and recovery by hiding specific information into video bitstream using fragile watermark and checking it later. The proposed method requires no additional bits into compressed bitstream since it embeds a user-specific data pattern in the least significant bits of LEVELs in VLC codewords. The decoder can extract the information to check whether the received bitstream has an error or not. We also propose to use this method to embed essential data such as motion vectors that can be used for error recovery. The proposed method can detect corrupted MBs that usually escape the conventional syntax-based error detection scheme. This proposed method is quite simple and of low complexity. So the method can be applied to multimedia communication system in low bitrate wireless channel.

본 논문은 MPEG-2 TM 5 video 부호기의 전체구조 및 처리과정을 기술한다. MPEG-2는 저장 매체, 통신, 방송 매체 등을 위한 동영상 압축이 표준이다. MPEG-2 압축 방법에는 공간적 압축과 시간적 압축 방법이 있다. 공간적 압축 방법에는 화면에서의 중복성을 줄이기 위한 표본화 주파수(4:4:4, 4:2:2, 4:2:0, format), DCT, scanning(zigzag 혹은 alternate scanning)과 quantization이 있고 시간적 압축 방법에는 움직임 예측(motion estimation)과 I, P, B-picture를 사용하는 방법이 있다. 본 논문에서는 MPEG-2 부호기의 핵심을 전체 구조, DPCM, MPEG bitstream syntax, MPEG-2 부호화 알고리즘, 움직임 예측, 움직임 벡터, rate control 그리고 가변길이 코딩(variable length coding)으로 구분하여 소개한다.

MPEG-2는 영상회의에서 HDTV까지 광범위하게 활용되는 국제 동영상 부호화 표준이다. MPEG-2 표준에 맞게 압축된 신호는 유선 통신망이나 공중파를 통하여 전송이 되는데, 특히 공중파 전송과정에 채널의 상태에 따라 전송 오류가 발생된다. 이로 인해 수신단에서 복호할 때, 영상의 화질 열화, 오류 전파둥 영상의 출력에 영향을 미치는 것들이 존재하게 된다. 특히 전송 자료 중에서 헤더 정보는 영상의 출력에 중요한 정보를 가지고 있어 오류 발생 시에는 영상의 출력에 심각한 영향을 주는 것이 대부분인데, 아직까지 헤더에서의 오류 검출(detection) 및 정정(correction)에는 많은 연구가 이루어지지 않았다. 그러므로, 본 논문에서는 MPEG-2 비디오 비트스트림의 헤더부분에 전송 오류가 발생할 경우 오류를 검출하고 정정하는 방법을 제안하고자 한다.

We pror.a;e a H.263-based video ceder with two-layer ocalability. The bare layer is ceded by using the default H.263 axling algorithms to achieve high compresred video data and the enhanced layer is axied by enhanced axling such as HVS-based quantization updating. The enhanced layer contains only arled refinement data for the OCT coefficients of the bare layer. Bitstream syntax and semantics for enhancement layer are designed and quantizer design using the HVS is pror.ooed. Data from the two layers are combined after inverse quantization and inverse OCT prcx:esses in the deaxier. We show with e~rirrental results that the pror.a;ed layered arlee achieves comparable picture quality with non-layered arlee at bitrates of 30 kbr;s or less. Overhead information for the bitstream layer can 00 limited to less than 0.5 kbits/frame.
