The task of extracting a semantic video object is split into two subproblems, namely, object segmentation and region segmentation. Object segmentation relies on a priori assumptions, whereas region segmentation i...

In this paper we present an efficient very low bit-rate coder for CIF image sequences at 10 frames/s. The proposed algorithm performs motion compensation using a second-order geometric transformation and a qua...
