Adaptive Bit Rate (ABR) decision plays a crucial role for ensuring satisfactory Quality of Experience (QoE) in video streaming applications, in which past network statistics are mainly leveraged for future network bandwidth prediction.…
Multimedia streaming over the Internet (live and on demand) is the cornerstone of modern Internet carrying more than 60% of all traffic. With such high demand, delivering outstanding user experience is a crucial and challenging task. To…
We propose a digital twin-assisted adaptive preloading scheme to enhance bandwidth efficiency and user quality of experience (QoE) in short video streaming. We first analyze the relationship between the achievable throughput and video…
The live streaming is more challenging than on-demand streaming, because the low latency is also a strong requirement in addition to the trade-off between video quality and jitters in playback. To balance several inherently conflicting…
While traditional multimedia applications such as games and videos are still popular, there has been a significant interest in the recent years towards new 3D media such as 3D immersion and Virtual Reality (VR) applications, especially 360…
Bandwidth consumption is a significant concern for online video service providers. Practical video streaming systems usually use some form of HTTP streaming (progressive download) to let users download the video at a faster rate than the…
There has been abundant work in unsupervised domain adaptation for semantic segmentation (DAS) seeking to adapt a model trained on images from a labeled source domain to an unlabeled target domain. While the vast majority of prior work has…
The delivery and display of 360-degree videos on Head-Mounted Displays (HMDs) presents many technical challenges. 360-degree videos are ultra high resolution spherical videos, which contain an omnidirectional view of the scene. However only…
We consider the problem of optimizing video delivery for a network supporting video clients streaming stored video. Specifically, we consider the problem of jointly optimizing network resource allocation and video quality adaptation. Our…
