    摘要: Systems and methods may be provided embodying a novel approach to measuring degradation (or distortion) by analyzing disparity maps from original 3D video and reconstructed 3D video. The disparity maps may be derived using a stereo-matching algorithm exploiting 2-view stereo image disparity. An overall distortion measure may also be determined resulting from the weighted sum of plural measures of distortions, one of the plural distortion measures corresponding to a measure of disparity degradation, and another one corresponding to a measure of geometrical distortion. The measure (or overall distortion measure) is used during real-time encoding to effect various decisions, including mode decision in the coding of each corresponding stereo pair, and in rate control (including stereo pair quantization).

    摘要: Systems and methods for dynamically allocating bandwidth in a digital broadband delivery system are disclosed. One example method includes receiving information describing subscriber requests for content delivery, receiving bandwidth allocation criteria, and processing the information describing subscriber requests and the bandwidth allocation criteria according to a statistical model. The bandwidth allocation criteria comprise at least one of subscriber pricing information, content delivery mode information, and program content information. The processing produces a bandwidth allocation schedule in which one of a plurality of content delivery modes is assigned to each of a plurality of digital transmission channels for each of a plurality of time periods.
