Project Description

This is "The Multimedia Signal Processing and Security Lab", short WaveLab, website. We are a research group at the Artificial Intelligence and Human Interfaces (AIHI) Department of the University of Salzburg led by Andreas Uhl. Our research is focused on Visual Data Processing and associated security questions. Most of our work is currently concentrated on Biometrics, Media Forensics and Media Security, Medical Image and Video Analysis, and application oriented fundamental research in digital humanities, individualised aquaculture and sustainable wood industry.
   

Adaptive Streaming of Secure Scalable Wavelet-based Video (ASSSV)

 

Project Description:

ASSSV (FWF project P19159) is a joint project with Hermann Hellwagner from the Information Technology Department (ITEC) at the University of Klagenfurt. The Salzburg branch is working on video encryption and watermarking schemes which are aimed to be suited for wavelet-based scalable video codecs and for H.264 SVC. The Klagenfurt branch is working on streaming protocols for scalable video and corresponding adaptation strategies for varying network properties or user preferences. Obviously, the overall aim is to result in methodologies to support "Adaptive Streaming of Secure Scalable Wavelet-based Video". Here is the project description @ Klagenfurt University.
