Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As the traffic for TV programs viewed over the Internet tripled between 2016 and 2021, reaching a monthly total of 42,000 petabytes, and considering that more than 500 hours of content are uploaded every minute on a single video repository, the need for advanced, more effective, and versatile video compression as well as streaming tools has become urgent.
In parallel, AI has become the predilect tool in image and video processing: not only have its results demonstrated their effectiveness in increasing the efficiency of conventional compression, streaming, and video processing tools (indexing, cryptography, and fingerprinting), but they have even resulted in significant paradigm shifts, such as end-to-end video encoding, for instance.
This Special Issue is meant to provide an overview of the emerging trends in video compression and its applications. Topics of interest include, but are not restricted to, AI frameworks for video compression (considered both as an end-to-end application or as a means to increase the effectiveness of conventional codecs) and AI compressed-domain video processing (integrity verification, access control, copyright protection, and content tracking), as well as societal endeavors of such tools and applications.
