Abstract
In the new era of ultra-high definition (UHD) videos, 8K is becoming more popular in diversified applications to boost the human visual experience and the performances of related vision tasks. However, researchers still suffer from the lack of 8K video sources to develop better processing algorithms for the compression, saliency detection, quality assessment, and vision analysis tasks. To ameliorate this situation, we construct a new comprehensive 8K UHD video dataset, which has two sub-datasets, i.e., the common raw format videos (CRFV) dataset and the video salient object detection (VSOD) dataset. To fully validate the diversity and practicality, the spatial and temporal information characteristics of the CRFV dataset are evaluated by the widely used metrics and the video encoder. Through the extensive experiments and comparative analyses with the other counterpart datasets, the proposed 8K dataset shows apparent advantages in diversity and practicality, which can benefit its applications for the developments of UHD video technologies. This dataset has been released online: https://git.openi.org.cn/OpenDatasets/PP8K.
期刊介绍:
The magazine contains technical information covering a broad range of issues in multimedia systems and applications. Articles discuss research as well as advanced practice in hardware/software and are expected to span the range from theory to working systems. Especially encouraged are papers discussing experiences with new or advanced systems and subsystems. To avoid unnecessary overlap with existing publications, acceptable papers must have a significant focus on aspects unique to multimedia systems and applications. These aspects are likely to be related to the special needs of multimedia information compared to other electronic data, for example, the size requirements of digital media and the importance of time in the representation of such media. The following list is not exhaustive, but is representative of the topics that are covered: Hardware and software for media compression, coding & processing; Media representations & standards for storage, editing, interchange, transmission & presentation; Hardware platforms supporting multimedia applications; Operating systems suitable for multimedia applications; Storage devices & technologies for multimedia information; Network technologies, protocols, architectures & delivery techniques intended for multimedia; Synchronization issues; Multimedia databases; Formalisms for multimedia information systems & applications; Programming paradigms & languages for multimedia; Multimedia user interfaces; Media creation integration editing & management; Creation & modification of multimedia applications.
