@PHDTHESIS{1271Krutz2010, AUTHOR = {Dipl.-Ing. Andreas Krutz}, TITLE = {From Sprites to Global Motion Temporal Filtering}, SCHOOL = {Technische Universit{\"a}t Berlin}, YEAR = {2010}, NOTE = {Nr. 26}, ABSTRACT = {The motivation of this thesis is to build a bridge between the Sprite coding and the hybrid video coding approach to combine both advantages and minimize disadvantages. It starts with the classical Sprite coding technique. Then, the Sprite-based representation will be integrated on a coding environment using the latest standardized video codec, H.264/AVC. Finally, a filter design will be introduced using techniques inside the Sprite generation, which has a great potential to be used not only in coding environments but also as post-processing for video enhancement or as pre-processing for further video analysis techniques.} }
