Research on side information generation algorithm for Wyner-Ziv video coding
Published 2010-01-01“…To reduce the block artifacts and ghosting artifacts of side-information frame in Wyner-Ziv video coding,an overlapped block bi-directional motion compensation algorithm based on the original-image correlation was proposed.Firstly,the correlation of the original image in the encoder is calculated and sent to the decoder.Secondly,the correlation data is used to motion estimation in the decoder to get more accurate motion vector.Then the side information is gener-ated by bi-directional motion compensation.Compared with the existing algorithm,the proposed method can increase the average PSNR（peak signal-to-noise ratio） by 1.5~3dB,and also significantly improve the subjective quality of the side information.…”

Cartographie du vide : les "non-lieux" de l’espace américain dans The Informers de Bret Easton Ellis
Published 2006-06-01“…Published in 1994, The Informers is a collection of thirteen short stories which aim to explore the various facets of a certain Los Angeles social microcosm in the nineteen-eighties.The first-person narration, based on a deliberately minimalist paratactic structure which involves recurrent snatches of dialogue, moves through an endless succession of toponyms (Palm Springs, Melrose etc.) and cultural clichés (trendy places, music or clothing) which all seem to trap people and places within an imprisoning landscape—most aptly metaphorized by the Sunset Boulevard.Both huge and confined to the specific landmarks or "non-places" of an interlope society, this landscape provides an ambivalent area in which people are cast adrift, wandering like ghosts in some kind of existential nowhere described by Michel de Certeau as "un théâtre de passants".…”
