360-degree videos have become increasingly popular with the application of virtual reality (VR) technology. To encode such kind of videos with ultra-high resolution, an efficient and real-time video encoder becomes a key requirement. The Versatile Video Coding (VVC) standard has good coding performance. However, it has pretty high computational complexity which increasing the application cost of 360-degree videos. Among them, the decision of the quadtree with nested multi-type tree (QTMT) partitioning structure is one of the time-consuming procedures. In this paper, based on the characteristics of 360-degree video with Equirectangular projection (ERP) format, the empirical variogram combined with Mahalanobis distance is introduced to measure the difference between the horizontal and vertical directions of the CU, and a fast partition algorithm is proposed. The experimental results show that the algorithm saves 32.13% of the coding time with only an increase of 0.66% in BDBR.
For Wireless Sensor Networks, energy efficiency is always a key consideration in system design. Compressed sensing is a new theory which has promising prospects in WSNs. However, how to construct a sparse projection matrix is a problem. In this paper, based on a Bayesian compressed sensing framework, a new adaptive algorithm which can integrate routing and data collection is proposed. By introducing new target node selection metrics, embedding the routing structure and maximizing the differential entropy for each collection round, an adaptive projection vector is constructed. Simulations show that compared to reference algorithms, the proposed algorithm can decrease computation complexity and improve energy efficiency.
