Effective convergence and cooperation of heterogeneous networks can be achieved through Mesh technology. The IP-based convergence integrates common features of heterogeneous networks, while the cooperation coordinates personalities of the networks. By using the convergence and cooperation, a standardized integration of separated and localized predominant capabilities and resources of heterogeneous networks can be fulfilled to enable the evolution into an ubiquitous and omnipotent intelligent network.展开更多

Motion vectors associated with the mesh nodes in each group are transmitted over distinct channels. With the nodes in each group, two other regular triangular meshes besides the original one can be constructed, and three different prediction images can be reconstructed according to descriptions available. The proposed MD mesh-based motion coding method is then combined with the pairwise correlating transform (PCT), and a complete MD video coding scheme is proposed. Further measures are taken to reduce the mismatch between the encoder and decoder that occurs when only one description is received and the decoder reconstruction is different from the encoder. The performance of the proposed scheme is evaluated using computer simulations, and the results show, compared to Reibman's MD transform coding (MDTC) method, the proposed scheme achieves better redundancy rate distortion (RRD) performance. In packet loss scenario, the proposed scheme outperforms the MDTC method.展开更多

However, available uniform 2-D mesh model enforces connec-tivity everywhere within a frame, which is clearly not suitable across occlusion boundaries. To overcome this limitation, BTBC (background to be covered) detection and MF (model failure) detection algorithms are being used. In this algorithm, connectivity of the mesh elements (patches) across covered and uncovered region boundaries are broken. This is achieved by allowing no node points within the background to be covered and refining the mesh structure within the model failure region at each frame. We modify the occlusion-adaptive, content-based mesh design and forward tracking algorithm used by Yucel Altunbasak for selection of points for triangular 2-D mesh design. Then, we propose a new triangulation procedure for mesh structure and also a new algorithm to justify connectivity of mesh structure after motion vector estimation of the mesh points. The modified content-based mesh is adaptive which eliminates the necessity of transmission of all node locations at each frame.展开更多
