SPATIAL VIDEO Exploring Space Using Multiple Digital Videos
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)
This paper pre sents and discusses a new approach to collect, organize and explore multiple digital videos on a spatial basis. We present a methodology based on direct video frame indexation to the real space represented ...
Self-Organizing Multimedia and Extremely Distributed Architectures
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)
The Object-Based Media Group at the MIT Media Laboratory is developing robust, self-organizing programming models for dense ensembles of ultra-miniaturized computing nodes which are deployed by the thousands in bulk fashion, ...
Effective Exercise Instruction System Using Virtual Human
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)
This study aims at developing an aerobics exercise instruction software for personal use by introducing an instruction program best fit to the physical conditions of respective exerciser. The software uses the combination ...
Content Based Retrieval of VRML Objects - An Iterative and Interactive Approach
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)
We examine the problem of searching a database of three-dimensional objects (given in VRML) for objects similar to a given object. We introduce an algorithm which is both iterative and interactive. Rather than base the ...
Sobol Partial Distortion Algorithm for Fast Full Search in Block Motion Estimation
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)
Block motion estimation is a cpu intensive task for video encoding. Many fast algorithms have been developed to solve this problem, trying to improve both block searching and block matching. Some of them reduce the image ...
Buoy Indexing of Metric Feature Spaces for Fast Approximate Image Queries
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)
A novel indexing scheme for solving the problem of nearest neighbor queries in generic metric feature spaces for content-based image retrieval is proposed to break the 'dimensionality curse.' The basis for the proposed ...
Adaptive Visualization of Distributed 3D Documents Using Image Streaming Techniques
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)
With the emergence of open information spaces such as digital libraries, advanced techniques for interactive visualization of complex and protected 3D documents are needed. This paper presents a new visualization concept ...
LIVE@WEB.COM Using CBIR Technology in InteractiveWeb-TV
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)
The increasing amount of internet based television broadcasts has lead to new approachs to interactivity in TV programs. We developed a system which is able to supply the viewer of the program upon interaction with information ...
Extended Format Definition and Quality-driven Format Negotiation in Multimedia Systems
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)
Multimedia middleware needs to support a wide variety of devices together with their respective data formats. This becomes increasingly relevant and difficult in a distributed environment where new devices and formats ...
A Server-based Interactive Remote Walkthrough
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)
This paper presents a server-based remote walkthrough system. The client is assumed to be a thin client, like a handset or a mobile device, with no strong processor but with some embedded video chip. The server holds the ...
