-
- This short course is designed for engineers, managers and
- professionals seeking an overview of the key concepts and techniques
- in video and audio compression for entertainment, communications and
- multi-media applications. The presentation will not dwell on complex
- mathematical proofs and no prior knowledge of video techniques or
- digital signal processing is assumed. Instead, the course will lead
- participants through a descriptive and substantive review of video and
- audio compression without getting mired in complexity.
-
- Presented by Steve Haigh, Director of video DSP, Cypress Semiconductor.
-
- Part 1 introduces transform based video coding and the draft ISO
- standard MPEG video compression algorithm.
-
- Day 1:
-
- o Applications for video compression.
- o Overview of spacial, temporal and entropy coding.
- o Motion video coding for MPEG and Px64 (h.261).
- o Transform based coding of images.
-
- Day2:
-
- o Motion estimation and compensation of moving picture sequences.
- o Entropy coding.
- o Quantization, rate buffer control and encoding techniques.
- o Performance requirement for real time coding and decoding.
-
- Day3:
-
- o MPEG 1 bit stream syntax.
- o MPEG 2 work in progress.
-
- Part 2 introduces MPEG audio compression layers 1 through 3 and the
- MPEG systems layer.
-
- Day 1:
-
- o Psychoacoustics.
- o Quadrature mirror filters.
- o MPEG audio layers I and II.
- o MPEG audio layer III.
-
- Day 2:
-
- o MPEG audio bit stream syntax.
- o Performance requirement for real time coding and decoding.
- o MPEG systems overview.
