Patent number: 9754377Abstract: A computer-implemented depth estimation method based on non-parametric Census transform with adaptive window patterns and semi-global optimization. A modified cross-based cost aggregation technique adaptively creates the shape of the cross for each pixel distinctly. In addition, a depth refinement algorithm fills holes within the estimated depth map using the surrounding background depth pixels and sharpens the object boundaries by exerting a trilateral filter to the generated depth map. The trilateral filter uses the curvature of pixels as well as texture and depth information to sharpen the edges.Type: GrantFiled: August 17, 2015Date of Patent: September 5, 2017Assignee: Illinois Institute of TechnologyInventors: Maziar Loghman, Maral Mesmakhosroshahi, Joohee Kim

Publication number: 20160050440Abstract: A variable block size compressed sensing (CS) method for high efficiency depth map coding. Quad-tree decomposition is performed on a depth image to differentiate irregular uniform and edge areas prior to CS acquisition. To exploit temporal correlation and enhance coding efficiency, the quad-tree based CS acquisition is further extended to inter-frame encoding, where block partitioning is performed independently on the I frame and each of the subsequent residual frames. At the decoder, pixel domain total-variation minimization is performed for high quality depth map reconstruction.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 17, 2015Publication date: February 18, 2016Inventors: Ying Liu, Joohee Kim

Patent number: 7117423Abstract: Methods and systems for streaming data in a network. Whether the network is experiencing high packet loss may be determined by a rate control module. If high packet loss is experienced, data is encoded into multiple streams by a coder using temporal domain partitioning. If high packet loss is not experienced, then data may is encoded by using frequency domain partitioning. Unequal error protection is applied to each of the streams so more important bit planes in a bit of a stream are provided with more error protection than less important bit planes. The streams are transmitted along, respectively, independent paths to a decoder. The streams are decoded, and errors in the decoded streams are corrected by using information from one or more of the other decoded streams. The decoded corrected streams are reconstructed into the data.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2003Date of Patent: October 3, 2006Assignee: Georgia Tech Research Corp.Inventors: Joohee Kim, Russell M.
