1. Towards conversational speech synthesis : Experiments with data quality, prosody modification, and non-verbal signals
Sammanfattning : The aim of a text-to-speech synthesis (TTS) system is to generate a human-like speech waveform from a given input text. Current TTS sys- tems have already reached a high degree of intelligibility, and they can be readily used to read aloud a given text. For many applications, e.g. LÄS MER
2. Very Low Bitrate Video Communication : A Principal Component Analysis Approach
Sammanfattning : A large amount of the information in conversations come from non-verbal cues such as facial expressions and body gesture. These cues are lost when we don't communicate face-to-face. But face-to-face communication doesn't have to happen in person. With video communication we can at least deliver information about the facial mimic and some gestures. LÄS MER
3. Coding of Three-dimensional Video Content : Diffusion-based Coding of Depth Images and Displacement Intra-Coding of Plenoptic Contents
Sammanfattning : In recent years, the three-dimensional (3D) movie industry has reaped massive commercial success in the theaters. With the advancement of display technologies, more experienced capturing and generation of 3D contents, TV broadcasting, movies, and games in 3D have entered home entertainment, and it is likely that 3D applications will play an important role in many aspects of people's life in a not distant future.

4. Coding of three-dimensional video content : Depth image coding by diffusion
Sammanfattning : Three-dimensional (3D) movies in theaters have become a massive commercial success during recent years, and it is likely that, with the advancement of display technologies and the production of 3D contents, TV broadcasting in 3D will play an important role in home entertainments in the not too distant future. 3D video contents contain at least two views from different perspectives for the left and the right eye of viewers.

5. Model Based Coding : Initialization, Parameter Extraction and Evaluation
Sammanfattning : This thesis covers topics relevant to model-based coding. Model-based coding is a promising very low bit rate video coding technique. The idea behind this technique is to parameterize a talking head and to extract and transmit the parameters describing facial movements. At the receiver, the parameters are used to reconstruct the talking head. LÄS MER
