Research

Currently, I'm focusing on two aspects of video streaming. First, aspect, which is also the topic of my PhD thesis, can be summarized as "video for computer vision". More and more streaming applications use video analysis algorithms to automate their tasks. I study the problem of saving network bandwidth when end-recipients of the video stream are such algorithms, instead of humans. This problem is a part of research project DAVIS.

Second research interest is the problem of arranging multiple video streams into one output stream. This problem is important in presentation capturing and video conferencing. I actively participated in project Plasma, a scripting language and tool, which allows combining several video streams into one similarly to arranging GUI widgets on the screen. Another related was a part of my internship in FXPAL, where I have developed a web-based system to monitor and control presentation capturing process. The system relies on a hardware solution that can compose in real-time two feeds from a projector and a camera into a single stream.
