DESCRIPTION
This course introduces technologies for video
processing, coding and communications. We will address how to efficiently
represent image and video data and how to deliver them over a variety of
networks. In the coding aspect, state-of-the-art compression technologies will
be presented. Emphasis will be given to a number of standards, including H.26x,
MPEG, and JPEG. In the system aspect, special considerations for constru
PROGRAMMING
The best way to understand an algorithm is to program it. Therefore, this course emphasizes computer assignments and projects. Students will complete individual assignments, and form small groups to complete projects in video coding or related technologies. The use of C/C++ is encouraged. You may also use Matlab to generate some figures. If you plan to use other programming languages, please discuss it with the instructor.
