As multimedia applications have become part of contemporary daily life, numerous paradigm-shifting technologies in multimedia processing have emerged over the last decade. Substantially updated with 21 new chapters, Multimedia Image and Video Processing, Second Edition explores the most recent advances in multimedia research and applications. This edition presents a comprehensive treatment of multimedia information mining, security, systems, coding, search, hardware, and communications as well as multimodal information fusion and interaction. Clearly divided into seven parts, the book begins with a section on standards, fundamental methods, design issues, and typical architectures. It then focuses on the coding of video and multimedia content before covering multimedia search, retrieval, and management. After examining multimedia security, the book describes multimedia communications and networking and explains the architecture design and implementation for multimedia image and video processing. It concludes with a section on multimedia systems and applications. Written by some of the most prominent experts in the field, this updated edition provides readers with the latest research in multimedia processing and equips them with advanced techniques for the design of multimedia systems.

Image and Video Processing is an active area of research due to its potential applications for solving real-world problems. Integrating computational intelligence to analyze and interpret information from image and video technologies is an essential step to processing and applying multimedia data. Emerging Technologies in Intelligent Applications for Image and Video Processing presents the most current research relating to multimedia technologies including video and image restoration and enhancement as well as algorithms used for image and video compression, indexing and retrieval processes, and security concerns. Featuring insight from researchers from around the world, this publication is designed for use by engineers, IT specialists, researchers, and graduate level students.

Real-Time Image and Video Processing presents an overview of the guidelines and strategies for transitioning an image or video processing algorithm from a research environment into a real-time constrained environment. Such guidelines and strategies are scattered in the literature of various disciplines including image processing, computer engineering, and software engineering, and thus have not previously appeared in one place. By bringing these strategies into one place, the book is intended to serve the greater community of researchers, practicing engineers, industrial professionals, who are interested in taking an image or video processing algorithm from a research environment to an actual real-time implementation on a resource constrained hardware platform. These strategies consist of algorithm simplifications, hardware architectures, and software methods.Throughout the book, carefully selected, representative examples from the literature are presented to illustrate the discussed concepts. After reading the book, readers will have a strong understanding of the wide variety of techniques and tools involved in designing a real-time image or video processing system.

Multimedia signal processing uses computational techniques to read digital data. This book on multimedia signals explains the processes that are involved in audio and video processing, data conversion and data compression. Signals are arranged in a sequence related to time, space or frequency. Algorithms that correlate to simple digital signal processes are discussed in detail. This book is a valuable compilation of topics ranging from the basic to the most complex advancements in the field of multimedia signal processing. The aim of this text is to present researches that have transformed this discipline and aided the advancement of this field. It will be helpful to students, experts, researchers and professionals engaged in the fields of digital electronics, computer engineering and telecommunication theory.

Thousands of engineering students and professionals have relied on Digital Video Processing as the definitive, in-depth guide to digital image and video processing technology. Now, Dr. A.

Multimedia Signals and Systems is primarily a technical introductory level multimedia textbook, including problems, examples, and MATLAB® codes. It will be a stepping-stone for readers who want to research in audio processing, image and video processing, and data compression. This book will also be useful to readers who are carrying out research and development in systems areas such as television engineering and storage media. Anyone who seeks to learn the core multimedia signal processing techniques and systems will need Multimedia Signals and Systems. There are many chapters that are generic in nature and provide key concepts of multimedia systems to technical as well as non-technical persons. There are also several chapters that provide a mathematical/ analytical framework for basic multimedia signal processing. The readers are expected to have some prior knowledge about discrete signals and systems, such as Fourier transform and digital filters. However, a brief review of these theories is provided.
