TV beyond High-Definition (HD)

OBS! ANSÖKNINGSTIDEN FÖR DETTA EXJOBB HAR LÖPT UT.
Background

The leading video coding standard (H.264, MPEG-4 part 10, Advanced Video Coding, AVC) has become the industry standard for HDTV, Blu-ray, mobile TV, and even the basis for initial 3D deployments. But this standard was developed almost 10 years ago, and during this time both screen technology and capture equipment has changed dramatically.

MPEG and ITU have recently started the Joint Collaborative Team on Video Coding (JCT-VC) that will standardize next generation video coding. The target of this work includes addressing emerging very high resolution video services (beyond HD).

Task

The objective of this thesis includes studying, developing and evaluating different video coding techniques that are more specifically suited to needs of next generation devices. These devices include Ultra High Definition display and capture (Quad HD and above), so-called retinal displays as is used in the next generation iPhone, as well as true color representations (such as xvYCC as supported in the latest PlayStation 3). The task includes working on video compression algorithms for the High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) standardization ongoing in MPEG and ITU-T.

Competence

We are looking for one or two bright M.Sc. students with interests in video processing and programming.
The candidate should have general knowledge on image/signal processing. You should have good programming skills in C/C++.

Ericsson Research – Visual Technology

The thesis work will be done at the Visual Technology unit at Ericsson Research in Kista outside Stockholm. The unit is responsible for research related to video coding, image coding, graphics and image processing for multimedia communication and distribution.

Applications should contain the following documents: a short personal letter, recent grades (undergraduate and master studies) and a CV. Candidates are invited to send their applications as soon as possible.

Apply online before 2010-08-15 by following the link below. Applications by e-mail are not accepted.
