One of the core components of conventional (i.e., non-learned) video codecs consists of predicting a frame from a previously-decoded frame, by leveraging temporal correlations. In this paper, we propose an end-to-end learned system for…
The proliferation of deep learning-based machine vision applications has given rise to a new type of compression, so called video coding for machine (VCM). VCM differs from traditional video coding in that it is optimized for machine vision…
The yearly global production of data is growing exponentially, outpacing the capacity of existing storage media, such as tape and disk, and surpassing our ability to store it. DNA storage - the representation of arbitrary information as…

Inspired by the facts that retinal cells actually segregate the visual scene into different attributes (e.g., spatial details, temporal motion) for respective neuronal processing, we propose to first decompose the input video into…
Biological data mainly comprises of Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and protein sequences. These are the biomolecules which are present in all cells of human beings. Due to the self-replicating property of DNA, it is a key constitute of genetic…
Human-centric motion control in video generation remains a critical challenge, particularly when jointly controlling camera movements and human poses in scenarios like the iconic Grammy Glambot moment. While recent video diffusion models…
Almost all digital videos are coded into compact representations before being transmitted. Such compact representations need to be decoded back to pixels before being displayed to humans and - as usual - before being enhanced/analyzed by…
