International Research Fellow Awards Program: Wavelet-Based Subband Coding for Video Using Adaptive Vector Quantization

9600260福勒国际研究员奖励计划使美国科学家和工程师能够在国外进行三到二十四个月的研究。该计划的奖励为联合研究提供了机会，并利用独特或互补的设施、专业知识和国外的实验条件。该奖项将支持詹姆斯·e·福勒博士对尼斯大学索菲亚·安提波利斯的米歇尔·巴劳德教授进行为期12个月的博士后研究访问。他们的项目名为“使用自适应矢量量化的基于小波的视频子带编码”。在多媒体应用中使用数字计算机需要有效的编码技术来存储和传输数字视频。Fowler博士和Barlaud教授计划开发一种新的视频编码算法，该算法基于两种图像编码技术的集成：自适应矢量量化（AVQ）和基于小波的子带编码。他们认为这种算法比现有的MPEG标准更适合于基于分组的视频。＊＊＊

9600260 Fowler The International Research Fellow Awards Program enables U.S. scientists and engineers to conduct three to twentyfour months of research abroad. The program's awards provide opportunities for joint research, and the use of unique or complementary facilities, expertise and experimental conditions abroad. This award will support a twelve-month postdoctoral research visit by Dr. James E. Fowler to work with Professor Michel Barlaud at the University of Nice - Sophia Antipolis. Their project is entitled, "Wavelet-Based Subband Coding for Video Using Adaptive Vector Quantization." The use of digital computers in multimedia applications demands efficient coding techniques for storing and transmitting digital video. Dr. Fowler and Professor Barlaud plan to develop a new algorithm for video coding, based on an integration of two image coding techniques: adaptive vector quantification (AVQ) and wavelet based subband coding. They believe that this algorithm is better suited for packet based video than the established Motion Picture Experts Group (MPEG) standards. ***
