48 results for video foreground-background separation

In many video coding systems, separable transforms (such as two-dimensional DCT-2) have been used to code block residual signals obtained after prediction. This paper proposes a parametric approach to build graph-based separable transforms (GBSTs) for video coding. Specifically, a GBST is derived from a pair of line gr…
