商品描述

Description:

For graduate level courses in digital video processing and communications, and as a reference book for practicing researchers and engineers.

With more insights and examples than other texts of its kind, Video Processing and Communications provides a good balance between theoretical concepts and practical solutions, with more rigorous formulation of certain problems such as motion estimation, sampling, basic coding theory. It is unique in its coverage of error control, scalable coding, and video streaming applications, and offers more comprehensive coverage than competitors on timely coding techniques, including issues of practical importance such as rate control, mode selection, scalable coding, and error resilience. It also contains a concise description of latest video coding standards.
