Combining underline{v}ideo streaming and online underline{r}etailing (V2R) has been a growing trend recently. In this paper, we provide practitioners and researchers in multimedia with a cloud-based platform named Hysia for easy development and deployment of V2R applications. The system consists of: 1) a back-end infrastructure providing optimized V2R related services including data engine, model repository, model serving and content matching; and 2) an application layer which enables rapid V2R application prototyping. Hysia addresses industry and academic needs in large-scale multimedia by: 1) seamlessly integrating state-of-the-art libraries including NVIDIA video SDK, Facebook faiss, and gRPC; 2) efficiently utilizing GPU computation; and 3) allowing developers to bind new models easily to meet the rapidly changing deep learning (DL) techniques. On top of that, we implement an orchestrator for further optimizing DL model serving performance. Hysia has been released as an open source project on GitHub, and attracted considerable attention. We have published Hysia to DockerHub as an official image for seamless integration and deployment in current cloud environments.

Photo-realistic point cloud capture and transmission are the fundamental enablers for immersive visual communication. The coding process of dynamic point clouds, especially video-based point cloud compression (V-PCC) developed by the MPEG standardiza
tion group, is now delivering state-of-the-art performance in compression efficiency. V-PCC is based on the projection of the point cloud patches to 2D planes and encoding the sequence as 2D texture and geometry patch sequences. However, the resulting quantization errors from coding can introduce compression artifacts, which can be very unpleasant for the quality of experience (QoE). In this work, we developed a novel out-of-the-loop point cloud geometry artifact removal solution that can significantly improve reconstruction quality without additional bandwidth cost. Our novel framework consists of a point cloud sampling scheme, an artifact removal network, and an aggregation scheme. The point cloud sampling scheme employs a cube-based neighborhood patch extraction to divide the point cloud into patches. The geometry artifact removal network then processes these patches to obtain artifact-removed patches. The artifact-removed patches are then merged together using an aggregation scheme to obtain the final artifact-removed point cloud. We employ 3D deep convolutional feature learning for geometry artifact removal that jointly recovers both the quantization direction and the quantization noise level by exploiting projection and quantization prior. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method is highly effective and can considerably improve the quality of the reconstructed point cloud.
Crowdsourced live video streaming (livecast) services such as Facebook Live, YouNow, Douyu and Twitch are gaining more momentum recently. Allocating the limited resources in a cost-effective manner while maximizing the Quality of Service (QoS) throug
h real-time delivery and the provision of the appropriate representations for all viewers is a challenging problem. In our paper, we introduce a machine-learning based predictive resource allocation framework for geo-distributed cloud sites, considering the delay and quality constraints to guarantee the maximum QoS for viewers and the minimum cost for content providers. First, we present an offline optimization that decides the required transcoding resources in distributed regions near the viewers with a trade-off between the QoS and the overall cost. Second, we use machine learning to build forecasting models that proactively predict the approximate transcoding resources to be reserved at each cloud site ahead of time. Finally, we develop a Greedy Nearest and Cheapest algorithm (GNCA) to perform the resource allocation of real-time broadcasted videos on the rented resources. Extensive simulations have shown that GNCA outperforms the state-of-the art resource allocation approaches for crowdsourced live streaming by achieving more than 20% gain in terms of system cost while serving the viewers with relatively lower latency.
Immersive video offers the freedom to navigate inside virtualized environment. Instead of streaming the bulky immersive videos entirely, a viewport (also referred to as field of view, FoV) adaptive streaming is preferred. We often stream the high-qua
lity content within current viewport, while reducing the quality of representation elsewhere to save the network bandwidth consumption. Consider that we could refine the quality when focusing on a new FoV, in this paper, we model the perceptual impact of the quality variations (through adapting the quantization stepsize and spatial resolution) with respect to the refinement duration, and yield a product of two closed-form exponential functions that well explain the joint quantization and resolution induced quality impact. Analytical model is cross-validated using another set of data, where both Pearson and Spearmans rank correlation coefficients are close to 0.98. Our work is devised to optimize the adaptive FoV streaming of the immersive video under limited network resource. Numerical results show that our proposed model significantly improves the quality of experience of users, with about 9.36% BD-Rate (Bjontegaard Delta Rate) improvement on average as compared to other representative methods, particularly under the limited bandwidth.
Content based video retrieval is an approach for facilitating the searching and browsing of large image collections over World Wide Web. In this approach, video analysis is conducted on low level visual properties extracted from video frame. We belie
ved that in order to create an effective video retrieval system, visual perception must be taken into account. We conjectured that a technique which employs multiple features for indexing and retrieval would be more effective in the discrimination and search tasks of videos. In order to validate this claim, content based indexing and retrieval systems were implemented using color histogram, various texture features and other approaches. Videos were stored in Oracle 9i Database and a user study measured correctness of response.
DNN-based video analytics have empowered many new applications (e.g., automated retail). Meanwhile, the proliferation of fog devices provides developers with more design options to improve performance and save cost. To the best of our knowledge, this
paper presents the first serverless system that takes full advantage of the client-fog-cloud synergy to better serve the DNN-based video analytics. Specifically, the system aims to achieve two goals: 1) Provide the optimal analytics results under the constraints of lower bandwidth usage and shorter round-trip time (RTT) by judiciously managing the computational and bandwidth resources deployed in the client, fog, and cloud environment. 2) Free developers from tedious administration and operation tasks, including DNN deployment, cloud and fogs resource management. To this end, we implement a holistic cloud-fog system referred to as VPaaS (Video-Platform-as-a-Service). VPaaS adopts serverless computing to enable developers to build a video analytics pipeline by simply programming a set of functions (e.g., model inference), which are then orchestrated to process videos through carefully designed modules. To save bandwidth and reduce RTT, VPaaS provides a new video streaming protocol that only sends low-quality video to the cloud. The state-of-the-art (SOTA) DNNs deployed at the cloud can identify regions of video frames that need further processing at the fog ends. At the fog ends, misidentified labels in these regions can be corrected using a light-weight DNN model. To address the data drift issues, we incorporate limited human feedback into the system to verify the results and adopt incremental learning to improve our system continuously. The evaluation demonstrates that VPaaS is superior to several SOTA systems: it maintains high accuracy while reducing bandwidth usage by up to 21%, RTT by up to 62.5%, and cloud monetary cost by up to 50%.
