In this paper, a design of the reliable video-conference system using CTI(Computer Telephony Integration) technology is proposed. When video-conference is run on the current existing Internet, the transmission delay problem for voice data traffic can be frequently occurred. In order to transmit the real-time voice data through the Internet efficiently, some complicated algorithms such as CODEC(Code/Decode) should be applied. It can cause further excessive processing delay which can affect the overall performance. The voice traffic is usually transmitted through the reliable PSTN(Public Switched Telephone Network) in the CTI system. In this paper a new architecture, in which PSTN for voice traffic and Internet for video traffic are used at the same time instead of using Internet by itself, is proposed to relieve the problems on a video conference.

This paper provides a method for compression transmission of on-chip bus data. As the data traffic on on-chip buses is rapidly increasing with enlarged video resolutions, many video processor chips suffer from a lack of bus bandwidth and their IP cores have to wait for a longer time to get a bus grant. In multimedia data such as images and video, the adjacent data signals very often have little or no difference between them. Taking advantage of this point, this paper develops a simple bus data compression method to improve the chip performance and presents its hardware implementation. The method is applied to a Video Codec - 1 (VC-1) decoder chip and reduces the processing time of one macro-block by 13.6% and 10.3% for SD and HD videos, respectively

In the images of a video camera employed for surveillance, detecting targets by extracting foreground image is of great importance. The foreground regions detected, however, include not only moving targets but also their shadows. This paper presents a novel technique to detect shadow pixels in the foreground image of a video camera. The image characteristics of video cameras employed, a web-cam and a CCD, are first analysed in the HSV color space and a pixel-level shadow detection technique is proposed based on the analysis. Compared with existing techniques where unified criteria are used to all pixels, the proposed technique determines shadow pixels utilizing a fact that the effect of shadowing to each pixel is different depending on its brightness in background image. Such an approach can accommodate local features in an image and hold consistent performance even in changing environment. In experiments targeting pedestrians, the proposed technique showed better results compared with an existing technique.

Face detection and tracking technology on video sequence has developed indebted to commercialization of teleconference, telecommunication, front stage of surveillance system using face recognition, and video-phone applications. Complex background, color distortion by luminance effect and condition of luminance has hindered face recognition system. In this paper, we have proceeded to research of face recognition on video sequence. We extracted facial area using luminance and chrominance component on $YC_bC_r$ color space. After extracting facial area, we have developed the face recognition system applied to our improved algorithm that combined PCA and LDA. Our proposed algorithm has shown 92% recognition rate which is more accurate performance than previous methods that are applied to PCA, or combined PCA and LDA.

In one VTR(Video Tape Recorder), two or more heads are used to record or reproduce video signals. To obtain a uniform quality of a VTR, video heads should have similar charcteristics such as geometrical shapes and electro-magnetic performances. This research is aimed to develop a visual inspection system that can measure four geoemtrical parameters;HO, HI, Tw and Cw. To obtain a high realable results, DSP based image board and target based image processing algorithms were used. A series of experiments was performed for one thousands of video heads. From observation of the experimental results, the system is found to show good performance for inspection of video heads.

In this paper, we propose an efficient transcoding of MPEG video. Transcoding is the process of converting a compressed video format to another different compressed video format. We propose an simple and efficient transcoding by requantization in which MPEG coded video at high bit-rate is converted into MPEG bitstream at lower bit-rate. To reduce a image quality degradation, we use HVS(Human Visual System) that is the effect that visibility of noise is less in high activity regions than in low activity regions. By using the effect, the part of image in high activity region is coarsely quantized without seriously degrading the image quality. Experimental results show that the proposed method can provide good performance.

In this paper, we propose as new algorithm for the selection of key frames in a given video. For the selected key frames to be well defined, the selected key frames need to spread out on the whole temporal domain of the given video and guaranteed not to be duplicate. For this purpose, we take the first frame of each shot of the video as the candidate key frame to represent the video. To reduce the overall processing time, we eliminate some candidate key frames which are visually indistinct in the histogram difference. The key frames are then selected using a clustering processing based on the singly linked hierarchical tree. To make the selected key frames be distributed evenly on the whole video, the deviation and time difference between the selected key frames are used. The simulation results demonstrate that our method provides the better performance compared with previous methods.

In this study a smart HDMI switch is proposed to detect newly formed video stream and automatically change the transfer path to the corresponding port without pulling the HDMI plug and putting it again in the desired port manually and physically. Furthermore the proposed switch is designed in the advanced wireless video transmission scheme based on millimeter band technology. The proposed system shows its feasibility by the hardware experiment in the full-HD video transmission performance including the function of the smart port change.

This paper presents adaptive spread-spectrum watermarking scheme on the H.264/AVC video. The H.264/AVC has become popular video coding since it's compression performance has been improved greatly. That is why there is not enough space for embedding watermark using the spread-spectrum method. To overcome this problem, we propose selective block embedding scheme. The blocks which don't contain non-zero DCT (Discrete Cosine Transform) coefficients are selected by value. So we have enough space to embed watermarks. Experimental result shows that proposed scheme improves recovery rates of watermark about 12% and reduces distortion of watermarked video.

Object motion is an important feature of content in video sequences. By now, various methods to exact feature about the object motion have been reported[1,2]. However they are not suitable to index video using the motion, since a lot of bits and complex indexing parameters are needed for the indexing [3,4] In this paper, we propose object motion map which could provide efficient indexing method for object motion. The proposed object motion map has both global and local motion information during an object is moving. Furthermore, it requires small bit of memory for the indexing. to evaluate performance of proposed indexing technique, experiments are performed with video database consisting of MPEG-1 video sequence in MPEG-7 test set.
