This paper presents a video analytics algorithm for detecting event of objects crossing predetermined line-of-interest in the scene in specific direction. A fast blob-based analysis is formulated to detect the event, combined with the object detection ...

A vital prerequisite for fine-grained video content processing (indexing, querying, retrieval, adaptation, etc.) is the production of accurate metadata describing its structure and semantics. Several annotation tools were presented in the literature ...

To enhance the scalability and availability of Video-on-Demand (VoD) services, Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks are suggested to be used. In contrast to live streaming services, the point of view is asynchronous for each user in VoD streaming services and ...

Human perception is a highly non-linear process, influenced by many more factors that we can measure on a video streaming service. In fact, despite the tremendous advances in video coding, we still donÕt understand the intricate relationship between a ...
