In this chapter we review some of the basic principles used in MPEG coding. We use this chapter to introduce some of the terminology used throughout the book, but our treatment here is necessarily ...

Digital video coding integrates algorithmic techniques and standardised frameworks to reduce the volume of raw pixel data while preserving perceived visual quality. Most contemporary systems employ a ...

Entropy in computing is the randomness collected by an operating system or application for use in cryptography or other processes that require random data. This randomness -- also known as the ...

A new Gaussian splatting codec, SCAR-GS, swaps scalar quantization for residual vector quantization to cut storage without giving up too much visual quality. The method targets progressive streaming ...
