Abstract:
A fast and a scalable approach for computing the forward and inverse DPRT that uses: (i) a parallel array of fixed-point adder trees to compute the additions, (ii) circular shift registers to remove the need for accessing external memory components, (iii) an image block-based approach to DPRT computation that can fit the proposed architecture to available resources, and (iv) fast transpositions that are computed in one or a few clock cycles that do not depend on the size of the input image.
Abstract:
An AM-FM representation is used to derive AM and FM based equations that can be applied to two consecutive frames in parallel to derive motion estimates. The multidimensional AM-FM representations provide general representations of non-stationary content in digital images. The AM-FM estimate captures single images and features of a video that can lead to different applications in image and video analysis, for example, computer-aided diagnosis in medical applications or monitoring micro-movements of rocky material in the pit slopes.

Abstract:
System and methods for the joint control of reconstructed video quality, computational complexity and compression rate for intra-mode and inter-mode video encoding in HEVC. The invention provides effective methods for (i) generating a Pareto front for intra-coding by varying CTU parameters and the QP, (ii) generating a Pareto front for inter-coding by varying GOP configurations and the QP, (iii) real-time and offline Pareto model front estimation using regression methods, (iv) determining the optimal encoding configurations based on the Pareto model by root finding and local search, and (v) robust adaptation of the constraints and model updates at both the CTU and GOP levels.
Abstract:
A dynamically reconfigurable framework manages processing applications in order to meet time-varying constraints to select an optimal hardware architecture. The optimal architecture satisfies time-varying constraints including for example, supplied power, required performance, accuracy levels, available bandwidth, and quality of output such as image reconstruction. The process of determining an optimal solution is defined in terms of multi-objective optimization using Pareto-optimal realizations.
