-
- 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.
