Book Description

0444505024 978-0444505026 June 28, 2000 1
This book provides an in-depth treatment of the three important topics related to image and video databases: restoration, watermarking and retrieval. It is the result of the participation of the Delft University of Technology in the European Union ACTS program, a pre-competitive R&D program on Advanced Communications Technologies and Services (1994-1998). In particular the book has benefited from participation in the AURORA and SMASH projects respectively automated film and video restoration and storage for multimedia systems (watermarking & retrieval).

3.0 out of 5 stars Books gives an overview of current research, July 9, 2000
This review is from: Image and Video Databases: Restoration, Watermarking and Retrieval, Volume 8 (Advances in Image Communication) (Hardcover)
The book covers three aspects. Each part is written in a structured way, however sometimes the authors are not completely clear on why they have chosen a certain approach for a problem. The part restoration covers the restoration of old movies with all kinds of flickering and scratches etc. The watermarking part is the most informative, and gives a good overview of the current approaches in this field. The benchmarking and problems that can be seen with benchmarking are good.

In many articles the authors will claim that their way of watermarking can cope with lossy compression and attacks, however the authors of this chapter, will demonstrate that this is not so easy.

The retrieval covers retrieval in video streams and a new CODEC is handled. This last chapter is not a good overview of retrieval in image databases, as most of the video streaming and compression is handled.
