Abstract
During the last decade there has been a dramatic increase in the number of the applications requiring video compression techniques. These applications, which range from high definition television (HDTV) and digital cable to video conferencing and picture phones, have varying bandwidth requirements. The challenging general problem is the representation of full motion video at very low bit rates (VLBR), possibly as low as 8 kbits/sec. The research that proposes workable solutions to the problem will directly impact the future developments and possible applications in the area, as well as, one of the functionalities of a new standard (MPEG-4). Potential applications include videophone, multi-media electronic mail, remote sensing, electronic newspapers, interactive multi-media databases, multi-media videotex, video games, interactive computer imagery, multi-media annotation, surveillance, telemedicine and communication aids for the hearing impaired.
