Spherical Clustering of Users Navigating 360° Content

Pascal Frossard, Laura Toni, Francesca De Simone

In Virtual Reality (VR) applications, understanding how users explore the omnidirectional content is important to optimize content creation, to develop user-centric services, or even to detect disorders in medical applications. Clustering users based on th ...

Improved Utility-based Congestion Control for Low-Delay Communication

Pascal Frossard, Laura Toni, Sergio Mena, Stefano D'Aronco

Due to the presence of buffers in the inner network nodes, each congestion event leads to buffer queueing and thus to an increasing end-to-end delay. In the case of delay sensitive applications, a large delay might not be acceptable and a solution to prope ...

Optimal Selection of Adaptive Streaming Representations

Pascal Frossard, Laura Toni

Adaptive streaming addresses the increasing and heterogenous demand of multimedia content over the Internet by offering several encoded versions for each video sequence. Each version (or representation) has a different resolution and bit rate, aimed at a s ...

Optimal Representations for Adaptive Streaming in Interactive Multiview Video Systems

Pascal Frossard, Laura Toni

Interactive multiview video streaming (IMVS) services permit to remotely navigate within a 3D scene with an immersive experience. This is possible by transmitting a set of reference camera views (anchor views), which are used by the clients to freely navig ...

Correlation-Aware Packet Scheduling in Multi-Camera Networks

Pascal Frossard, Laura Toni, Thomas Maugey

In multiview applications, multiple cameras acquire the same scene from different viewpoints and produce correlated video streams. This results in large amounts of highly redundant data. In order to save resources, it is critical to handle properly this co ...

Interactive Free Viewpoint Video Streaming Using Prioritized Network Coding

Pascal Frossard, Laura Toni, Nikolaos Thomos

In free viewpoint applications, the images are cap- tured by an array of cameras that acquire a scene of interest from different perspectives. Any intermediate viewpoint not included in the camera array can be virtually synthesized by the decoder, at a qua ...

Delay-Power-Rate-Distortion Optimization of Video Representations for Dynamic Adaptive Streaming

Pascal Frossard, Laura Toni

Dynamic adaptive streaming addresses user heterogeneity by providing multiple encoded representations at different rates and/or resolutions for the same video content. For delay-sensitive applications, such as live streaming, there is however a stringent r ...
