    Piecewise-planar 3D reconstruction in rate-distortion sense
    (IEEE, 2007-05) İmre, E.; Güdükbay, Uğur; Alatan, A. A.
    In this paper, a novel rate-distortion optimization inspired 3D piecewise-planar reconstruction algorithm is proposed. The algorithm refines a coarse 3D triangular mesh, by inserting vertices in a way to minimize the intensity difference between an image and its prediction. The preliminary experiments on synthetic and real data indicate the validity of the proposed approach.

    Rate-distortion based piecewise planar 3D scene geometry representation
    (IEEE, 2006) Imre, E.; Alatan, A.A.; Güdükbay, Uğur
    This paper proposes a novel 3D piecewise planar reconstruction algorithm, to build a 3D scene representation that minimizes the intensity error between a particular frame and its prediction. 3D scene geometry is exploited to remove the visual redundancy between frame pairs for any predictive coding scheme. This approach associates the rate increase with the quality of representation, and is shown to be rate-distortion efficient by the experiments. © 2007 IEEE.

    Rate-distortion optimized layered stereoscopic video streaming with raptor codes
    (IEEE, 2007) Tan, A. Serdar; Aksay, A.; Bilen, C.; Bozdağı-Akar, G.; Arıkan, Erdal
    A near optimal streaming system for stereoscopic video is proposed. Initially, the stereoscopic video is separated into three layers and the approximate analytical model of the Rate-Distortion (RD) curve of each layer is calculated from sufficient number of rate and distortion samples. The analytical modeling includes the interdependency of the defined layers. Then, the analytical models are used to derive the optimal source encoding rates for a given channel bandwidth. The distortion in the quality of the stereoscopic video that is caused by losing a NAL unit from the defined layers is estimated to minimize the average distortion of a single NAL unit loss. The minimization is performed over protection rates allocated to each layer. Raptor codes are utilized as the error protection scheme due to their novelty and suitability in video transmission. The layers are protected unequally using Raptor codes according to the parity ratios allocated to the layers. Comparison of the defined scheme with two other protection allocation schemes is provided via simulations to observe the quality of stereoscopic video.
