Advanced image and video coding

• analyse image coding models
• explain multi-resolution coding of images
• explain advanced motion compensation and rate-control in video coding
• explain interaction between communication networks and image and video coding
• develop advanced image and video coding techniques
• simulate image or video coding
• apply new image and video coding methods, e.g. for multi camera video
• optimize image and video coding methods
• apply machine learning in image and video coding

The topics covered are new methods for optimization of entropy coding, cross-entropy, machine learning in image coding, wavelet and multi-resolution coding of multi-dimensional image data, interplay between communication networks and image/video coding, advanced video coding, high imae and video color quality, distributed coding, multi camera and multiview coding.
