16 MPEG GENERAL
16.1 MPEG Terminology
13230, Paulo Villegas, Essential MPEG terminology
13024, Paulo Villegas, AHG on MPEG Terminology
The above contributions on MPEG Terminology have been presented and discussed. Document
13230 including a proposed basic set of MPEG terms will be further refined by some MPEG
members and the result of this effort will be submitted to MPEG at the next meeting.
17 MPEG-4
17.1 JPEG 2000 in MPEG-4
13180, Marius Preda on behalf of the OLGA Consortium, Request for JPEG2000 elementary
stream support in MPEG-4 file format
This contribution requested the normative support of JPEG2000 elementary streams within the
MPEG-4 framework. This is useful for several applications using 3D content, including online
game applications. This request was considered relevant and thus accepted. Following this decision,
an amendment to MPEG-4 Systems (using a process similar to what was used for JPEG, PNG) will
be created by the Systems subgroup.
17.2 Multiview Video Coding (MVC)
13169, Yoshinori Sugihara, Masayuki Tanimoto, Toshiaki Fujii, Takanori Senoh, Takashi Itoh,
Yoshihiro Miyamoto, Hiroya Nakamura, Akio Ishikawa, Masaki Kitahara, Hideaki Kimata,
Requirements for FTV and 3DTV to Multi-view video coding (MVC)
This contribution proposed a new requirement for the multiview video coding and some changes to
existing requirements. Following the discussion in the group, there was consensus in adding a new
requirement on free viewpoint scalability stating that MVC shall support a scalable bitstream
structure to allow for access to partial data from which new views can be generated (i.e. not original
camera views but generated from them). Changes to the View scalability, Spatial Random Access
and the Resource management requirements were also approved. Following these changes, a
revised MVC Requirements document has been issued (N8064).
18 MPEG-7
18.1 MPEG-7 Query Formats
13025, Wo Chang, Kyoungro Yoon, AHG on MPEG-7 Query Format
13115, Wo Chang, Paulo Villegas, Proposed MPEG-7 Query Format Requirement v.3
Following the AHG report and the contribution above, the requirements developed since the last
meeting have been reviewed. Further, these requirements were improved along the week and a new
version of the MPEG-7 Query Formats Requirements document (N8065) has been issued.
The MPEG-7 Query Format effort will standardize the format of the request sent to the server and
the format of the response sent from the server with additional tools for query management
capability (see figure below). The MPEG-7 Query Format standard will not specify the behavior of
52
the server because the specific behavior of the server will differ from implementation to
implementation.

13340, Wo Chang, Statement of Support for MPEG-7 Query Format
13203, Sang-Kyun Kim, Yong-Ju Jung, Ryong Lee, Rationale of industry needs on MPEG-7 Query
Format
These contributions listed and motivated the support of some companies to the MPEG-7 Query
Format activity. Following the support shown at this MPEG meeting, it was decided to formally
launch the MPEG-7 Query Format standard with a Draft Call for Proposals.
13341, Wo Chang, Proposed Work Plan for MPEG-7 Query Format
Following the proposals in this document, it was decided to adopt the following schedule:
 Preliminary Call for Proposals – April 2006
 Final Call for Proposals – July 2006
 Evaluation – January 2007
 CD – July 2007
 FCD – October 2007
 FDIS – January 2008
13173, Paulo Villegas, Brief overview of some metadata query languages
This document reviews some existing query languages which are relevant for the MPEG-7 Query
Format activity. No specific action has been taken.
13103, Kyoungro Yoon, Suggestions for MPEG-7 Query Format Requirements
This document reviews some of the existing requirements and proposes clearer wording for most of
them. The proposals made have been adopted for the revised Requirements document.
13164, Hee-Cheol Seo, Soo-Jun Park, Myung-Gil Jang, Hyunki Kim, Yi-Gyu Hwang, Soojong Lim,
Jeong Heo, Proposal for Text Query Format for MPEG-7 Image Retrieval
This contribution proposed an example of a textual query input format which may be seem as a
partial solution for the problem addressed in this activity. No specific action has been taken.
13321, Matthias Gruhne, Audio issues on content based search
This document reviews some issues related to audio querying which are relevant for the MPEG-7
Query Format activity.
53
19 MPEG-21
19.1 MPEG-21 DIA Profiling
13306 Christian Timmerer, Hermann Hellwagner, Proposal for an MPEG-21 DIA Base Profile
This contribution proposed a DIA profile using the DIA UED tools. The profile was not adopted for
consideration because there was not enough industry support (and profiles are not for the purpose of
promotion).
19.2 MPEG-21 REL Profiling
13155 Xin Wang, Recommended Best Practice Usages of the MPEG-21 REL and its Profiles for
MAFs
This contribution proposed best practices for the use of REL tools and profiles. Based on this
document, the BoG on REL will develop in the future an output document which shall provide REL
users, best practices for the usage of this technology.
13118 Jaime Delgado, Eva Rodríguez, Towards the interoperability between MPEG-21 REL and
Creative Commons licenses
This contribution discussed the technical solutions for the addition of the capability of providing
Creative Commons licenses with MPEG-21 REL. Before addressing the various possible technical
solutions, it is essential to discuss the industry need for Creative Commons licenses; this discussion
will happen in the context of the Open Release MAF.
13225 Hendry, Munchurl Kim, Youngjoo Song, Kiho Jeong, Proposed MPEG-21 REL Profile for
Middleware
This contribution proposed a REL profile and REL extensions for the governance of service-based
middleware. This request required to review the REL requirements to check if the proposed
capabilities were already covered by existing REL requirements. A first evaluation allowed
concluding that some broad requirements seem to cover the proposed capabilities. Following this
conclusion, this proposal was sent for the technical consideration of the MDS subgroup; this means
the MDS subgroup must now evaluate the proposed technical solutions to fulfill the requirements
addressed.
13226 Hendry, Munchurl Kim, Proposed MPEG-21 REL Simple Profile
This contribution proposed a profile of MPEG-21 REL (for the moment named Simple Profile) for
use in simple multimedia application domains. To this end, the proposed profile considers only
restrictions to the existing MPEG-21 REL standard specification. After discussion, this profile was
adopted for the MPEG-21 Profiles under Consideration document (N8067). It is essential to clearly
identify which are the differences between this proposed profile and the already approved Base and
DAC profiles.
19.3 MPEG-21 IPMP Profiling
13221 Hendry Munchurl Kim Florian Pestoni Zhongyang Huang et al, Updated Text for MPEG-21
IPMP Base Profile Under Consideration
This contribution proposed improvements to the IPMP Components BASE profile under
consideration since last meeting. Following these improvements, this profile was promoted for
specification by the MDS subgroup. However, for future reference, the complete proposal
description of this profile will still stay in the MPEG-21 Profiles under Consideration issued at this
meeting.
54
19.4 Various
13227 Mihai Mitrea, Sorin Duta, Francoise Preteux, Trustworthy enriched media transmission
This contribution proposed some requirements and tools in the context of MPEG-4 and MPEG-21.
It was considered that the requirements proposed are already addressed and technical solutions for
them already exist under the technical approach adopted by MPEG. It was also considered that the
tools proposed are non-normative tools which may fit in the MPEG-4 and MPEG-21 frameworks
but don’t need normative specification.
20 MPEG-A
20.1 General
12717 Klaus Diepold, Wo Chang, AHG on MAFs
This contribution reports the MAF related activities between the Bangkok and Montreux meetings.
20.2 Photo Player MAF
13297, Robert O'Callaghan, Miroslaw Bober, Proposed Updated Requirements for Photo-Player
MAF
This contribution proposed some updates to the description of the Photo Player MAF in the MAFs
Overview document which have been adopted.
20.3 Open Release MAF
13145, Klaus Diepold, Michael Pramateftakis, Suen Chun Hui, Florian Schreiner, Open Release
MAF revisited
This contribution proposed the promotion to MAFs under consideration of the Open Release MAF
which was accepted. Although there is much interest in this MAF, the number of supporting
companies is still very low. There is a need to better understand the need and consequences of the
current requirement on supporting Creative Commons licenses.
20.4 Audio Archival MAF
13187, Noboru Harada, Takehiro Moriya, Yutaka Kamamoto, Proposal for Archival MAF
This contribution proposed an archival MAF centered on lossless audio data. This MAF was
accepted as a MAF under consideration but further refinement of the requirements and set of tools
is needed.
20.5 Surveillance MAF
13249, Octavian Folea, Daniel Lecomte, Frédéric Dufaux, Touradj Ebrahimi, JPEG2000 for
Surveillance MAF
This contribution supported the inclusion of the JPEG2000 format in the Surveillance MAF. Since
this format is already included in the list of tools for this MAF, no action had to be taken but for
registering the support.
13382, Jim Aldridge, MAF for Video Surveillance - User perspectives
This contribution reviewed different perspectives on surveillance applications. From this
contribution, requirements for the surveillance MAF will be extracted.
Following the discussions hold along the week, it was recognized that there are very different
applications currently considered under the umbrella of this MAF; many people seems to be using
the same words with different meanings. Following this conclusion, it was decided not to change
the Surveillance MAF description from last meeting until this question is further clarified.
55
20.6 Portable Video Player MAF
13154, H. Jean Cha, Tae Hyeon Kim, Proposed application scenarios and file format for the
Portable Video Player MAF
This contribution proposed improvements to the description of this MAF already under
consideration. These improvements have been accepted.
Multimedia Streaming with QoS MAF
13167, Marco Mattavelli, Claudio Alberti, Nicolas Forel, Abdellatif Benjelloun-Touimi, Philippe de
Cuetos, Stefano Battista, Maria Teresa Andrade, New MAF for consideration: Multimedia
Streaming with QoS
This contribution proposed a MAF centered on the functionality of providing a minimum level of
QoS; this functionality may be relevant for various MAFs. It was noted that MAFs are centered on
specific applications scenarios and not on specific functionalities. This MAF seems to have some
similarities with the Portable Video Player MAF. No further action has been taken since the authors
intend to refine their proposal.
20.7 2D Scene Representation MAF
13245, Tae Hyeon Kim, H. Jean Cha, Proposal of new scenarios and requirements for the 2D Scene
Representation MAF
This contribution proposes a MAF which seemed rather close to the Musical Slide Show MAF with
the exception of some more sophisticated graphics/animation which could request the use of a more
powerful Laser profile. For this reason, the proposers decided to further study their proposal, and
thus no action has been taken.
20.8 Digital Video/Cinema MAF
13255, Mayumi Koike, Takuyo Kogure, Hiroshi Yasuda, Digital Video/Cinema MAF
This contribution proposed a digital video/cinema MAF which was considered relevant. This MAF
was accepted as MAF under consideration but further refinement of the requirements and set of
tools is needed. Also further industry support is needed.
20.9
Summary on MAFs

21 MPEG-C
Fixed-point Approximation of 8x8 IDCT Transform
56
13144, Andy Tescher for USNB, USNB Contribution: fixed-point approximation of 8x8 IDCT
transform
Following this NB comment, and the analysis of the relevant Call for Proposals, it was answered
that “WG11 will take the comments into consideration along the specification process and confirms
that a single deterministic specification of such a transform is the desired target.”
Joint Meeting with ISG
Considering the current situation of the IDCT work, a joint meeting between the Requirements and
ISG subgroups was called. In this meeting, it was recognized that the Call for Proposals does not
clearly define the objective of this activity.
Following this recognition and a long discussion, it was proposed to consider the possibility to
address two major application areas mainly associated to i) high performance/high precision/small
drift without critical complexity requirements, and ii) low complexity with a minimum performance
above IEEE 1180. To validate this possibility, the interested parties were asked to provide evidence
that the possibility above makes sense and is relevant from an industry point of view. If the
possibility makes sense, the interested parties are also asked to identify and precise the relevant
requirements for the two application areas above mentioned.
22 Explorations
22.1 Reconfigurable Video Coding (RVC)
13190, Sunyoung Lee, Chungku Yie, Euee S. Jang, Comments on RVC CfP and Evaluation Methods
Following this contribution, the RVC requirements have been improved and a revised version has
been issued (N8069). A Final Call for Proposals with the following schedule was issued (N8070):
1. Final Call for Proposals, April 2006
2. Submission deadline, 10th July 2006
3. Evaluation, the weekend before the July meeting
Considering the small number of experts involved in this activity, it would be very important to
involve more people what is expected to happen through the Call for Proposals.
The proposed standardization schedule is
•
RVC PDAM:
January, 2007
•
RVC FPDAM:
April, 2007
•
RVC FDAM:
October, 2007
22.2 Royalty Free MPEG Video Standards (N8071)
Problem/Purpose: MPEG wants to extend the usage of their specifications but it is perceived by
some delegates that many users are not adopting MPEG solutions because they find the licensing
conditions for technology in existing MPEG specifications too onerous for their particular
application, market etc.
Proposal for NB and MPEG Experts Comments: MPEG should consider a dual track approach to
developing specifications.
 Approach (a) is the long standing MPEG mode of operation where standards, based on the best
technology, are developed with technology made available under RAND licensing conditions.
 Approach (b) will see the development of new specifications for video encoders and decoders
using a combination of
o Existing technology which is no longer subject to usage restrictions due to patents and
other intellectual property rights etc, and
57
o Technology contributed to MPEG by companies willing to license that technology on
royalty-fee free terms for the implementation of a particular specification
 Action: MPEG kindly asks for feedback from NBs and MPEG experts
(a) as to whether this dual track approach is desirable and
(b) if it is desirable feedback on appropriate processes to manage it successfully.

M13060: Summary of Voting on ISO/IEC 14496-11:2005/PDAM 5 [SC 29 N 7242]. Following the
French NB comment on Part 11 PDAM-5, a draft text of Part 11 FPDAM-5 has been presented by one of
the editor which incorporates the requested changes. The text has been agreed by consensus. Very small
additional changes have then been requested by the editors, following the SMR reference software
implementation into IM1 and the discovery of potential small problems. These small modifications have
raised no objections and they have been also included in the FPDAM text.
M13193: Study on Symbolic Music Representation WD. M13248: Selection and Annotations in MPEG
SMR. As reported in m13053, document M13248 and related annexes have been reviewed during the AHG
meeting on Sunday before the meeting. Its proposal has been included in the Study on SMR WD (m13193)
as a starting point to the text of 14496-3 PDAM-6 (Symbolic Music Representation) issued at the 76th
meeting by the Audio group.

General
M13042: AHG Report. Note and accepted.
Reference software: We need some coverage. Apple will work on sample groups, meta
boxes, and hints, but there are some other boxes and features not yet implemented. We will
70
also start a new amendment to Part 5 so as to incorporate the significant existing functionality
that is not present in the currently available Part 5. We trust that by the time this amendment
is done, the software will have significantly improved coverage.
Conformance: We have a spreadsheet, listing features in each specification in rows, and
volunteers to provide files listed in columns. For each offer of a file, the spreadsheet shows
what features it will cover. We expect these files as contributions at the next meeting. We
have offers from Apple, Ericsson, Nokia, ENST, and the University of Wollongong.
One Pagers: The existing File Format one-pager has been split into 4, and sent out to the
group for review.
M13259 : Ericsson, combined scalable media. (In the same amendment as the FLUTE hint
track, which should also have a section title for the track alternates labeling lifted from SVC
FF, and a section for the multiple-meta-boxes). This looks about right now, but we really
seem to need some real-world worked examples, preferably some with more than two tracks.
Do we (a) need the ‘implicit’ allocation on un-marked tracks; (b) need the operating points to
be stored movie-wide or could they vary track by track; (c) need to insist on the 100% total or
could it be the numbers are just weights?
ID3 meta-data on the RA : Review of the status, go final (remove the ID3 version field,
allow at file level, no brand).

Flute Hint Track
30.3.2 Contributions
M13265 Ericsson, Flute file format. Lots of good detail but we seem far away from the
amendment text we need. The LCT header needs serious work (offline session planned); it’s
too close to the format that would be transmitted and too complex. Documentation on
whether the FDT is included, and if so, how to skip transmitting it (ALC session) is needed.
Other comments of detail were dealt with in review. An offline session improved the text
significantly.
M13335 Nokia, multiple meta boxes. Interesting; we could have put all the alternatives
inside one ‘meta’ box with a special handler, but then (a) readers expecting a ‘meta’ they
understand won’t find it and (b) it’s not clear what the URL forms indirect through. Clarify to
say that these are additional meta_boxes and there is still one “preferred” or “primary” in
parallel to it. Needs to cover the case where the information in the primary and in the other(s)
71
is (a) disjoint (b) overlapping (c) subset of primary (d) superset of primary (e) identical (f)
completely disjoint domains (g) none/all/too-complicated-to-say? (a) is purely
complementary and (e) is purely alternative, but the others… What about the relation
between the alternatives themselves? The URL discussion needs to cover embedded URLs in
the additional meta boxes; we don’t need duplicate item tables – URL forms always go
through the main one. It’s just the primary_item information that has multiple representations,
the item directory is not repeated. Accepted with some improvements (well, modifications).

SVC File Format Extensions
31.1.2 Contributions
M13280 Corr. issues for AVC. Thank you. A Corr. will be needed to fix the table and the
text saying what is allowed (clarify that the reserved ones may be ignored if present). Also to
relax the rules slightly on what is allowed in the SPS/PPS array (e.g. at least user SEIs and
maybe some others).
M13275 Erosion storage in SVC file format. Change our mind on whether there is at least
one complete track; this splits the actual data over possibly several tracks. Seems like we
need to identify all the tracks that are the family of tracks for one SVC stream (ok, they are all
linked to the same base track), then we put back the flag that says “contains data needed for
retaining the complete representation”. Then we get the complete set by keeping them all,
and if there is only one, then that’s as before. Indeed, a discard could then be easy (and
should be explained in an annex). Accepted generally. Change ‘srot’ to ‘sbas’, put the flag
back, and add an annex. Do we need a track that “contains everything” (possibly using
extractors)? Maybe not; if you have a stream with 30fps hi-def and 60 fps standard-def, there
is no 60 fps hi-def possibility. Track refs of type ‘sbas’ must reference a track without either
‘sbas’ or ‘scal’ references.
M13277 Per-NAL meta-data for SVC. Adds per-sample meta-data, in an extensible way.
Maybe better to have separate 4CCs for the actual scheme in use (i.e. no ‘svc ‘ entry but
instead qlay and qmgs). On the other hand it may be useful to store the PDTQ of the aligned
NAL unit in each entry, which means that knowing it’s “some kind of SVC meta-data” (twolevel naming) might be useful. The summary of quality thinning per NAL seems to reflect
the idea of an extractor track that thins the same way. We note that the meaning of the P
value when all PDTQ are stored is nowhere signaled (and probably should be, in both file
format and stream). (Nor is there a rule that when only P is used, that discarding down to a
value of P represents a valid stream). Maybe reflecting the NALu size into the meta-data is
also useful? We accept this for now but expect (a) that we may want to refine the binary
syntax and (b) we may like an extensible syntax also (e.g. XML). Contributions welcome!
M13119 Apple, SVC file format. Visual w&h for SVC should be the overall stream. We
should warn about the maps and fragments issue (put in all the maps you might use), and note
72
the limit on the number of maps (actually 255). The naming issue is now irrelevant as we get
back the “complete_representation” bit (actually “contains part of the
complete_representation bit”). We should have an examples annex, and we’ll put that in with
these at least as titles. We don’t think we need “bracketing” aggregators.
M13279 Ilmenau TU & Siemens, SVC VM comments. For the scalability 2 bits, we can tell
the difference between the first two values by noting whether there are any sample group tiers
and maps. Do we need the full_scalability indication, and if so, what does it mean? (“Every
valid operating point is described by a tier”?) We take 1 bit for now. Max_delay (and maybe
some of the other fields) should be in the buffering box. The param set boxes are useful but
should say that without them all the param sets “may be” needed (don’t promise that they are).
ConstantBitRateBox seems like it belongs also in buffering. Is_layer_IDR => is_tier_IDR.
For temporal_level in AVC, either match the SVC level, or if there isn’t one, “a suitable level
is chosen”. Discardable_flag is “and”ed over the contents of agg/extr and inferred 0 for
NALus with AVC headers. Rewrite as how to infer values for the extended header given an
AVC header (which rules prob. belong to the JVT), then we can say how you compute the
headers for agg/extra. We should clarify that the max/min PDTQ values are over all NALus,
including those included/referenced by agg/extra (in the tier description). Empty aggregators
should take NALu header values that are “suitable” for the tier that describes them (i.e. equal
to another aggregator, described by the same tier, which is not empty). ‘avc1’ and ‘avc2’
tracks clearly get the sync sample etc. boxes for reading as AVC. But SVC tracks it’s the
reverse; it’s that if the entire stream is decoded, these boxes are true. Intro text is OK but
shouldn’t imply that extractors are exclusive to maps. Aggregators should only be hinted if
valid in the delivered bitstream. We need a note somewhere saying that (a) a tier may repeat
within a map and (b) that tier_IDs are in no pre-determined order (e.g. not necc. ascending).

M13178 : Results of mini experiments on streamSource for LASeR
This contribution provides answers to the questions listed in the mini experiment.
 groupingDescriptor is useful for independent signalling of number of buffers to
minimize time for channel switching.
 Modified syntax and semantics to support dynamic generation of mosaic at the
decoder by adding new component “dynamicMosaic” to streamSource.
 Intuitive analysis showed that receiving consecutive bursts does not require much
additional powers
 Proposed new transition effects
 Proposed new service scenarios, “tile” and “combination”
Discussions & Conclusion
 It could be better to have a way to signal number of groups
 groupdingDescriptor only signals buffering of streams. It can be used without
streamSource
 “prefetch” give hints to pre-roll we need to utilize not to redefine existing features
in SVG. But it is not precise enough.
 It is clear that groupingDescriptor, streamSource and prefetch have different
features and use case.
 prefetch : hint for pre-HTTP download (SVGT1.2 element)
 streamSource : special decoding chain behaviour during the switching to fill
the gap (scene level)
 groupingDescriptor : multiple decoder buffers for fast switching. (SAF level)
 These three will go to FPDAM.
 Remaining questions  TuC
 wether the behaviour of groupingDescriptor normative?
 Why do we need to mandate special behaviour for switching?
 whether prefetch can be used for media stream such as video and audio?
 It would be difficult to generate mosaic dynamically at the decoder and it is not
very clear that the proposed syntax is required to implement this fuctionality. 
proposed syntax will go to TuC
M13095 : Proposed solution for the support of large packets in SAF. Propose to use two types
of packet, the first fragmented AU and fragmented AU. The first fragmented AU has total
length of the AU. M13337 : Support of large AUs in SAF. Propose new type of packet
containing the fragmented AU. Set accessUnitLength to zero to indicate that the packet has
fragment and its size is the maximum of payload. It was discussed that using the size value 0
to indicate the fragment will break the version 1 implementation.
Discussion


fragment_sequenceNumber is useful for the case of packet loss
totalLengthOfAccessUnit is required for efficient implementation
74


Conclusion


using of accessUnitLength to indicate the size of fragment will break the
compatibility with MPEG-4 SL.
The size of fragmented AU should not be fixed.
DCOR
 Use accessUnitLength value 0 to signal safXAU is used.
 safXAU is defined for the future extension of safAU
FPDAM
 safFFU and safFU are defined as extended format of safXAU
M13098 : On appending scene segments and SAF sessions. This contribution described the
problem of media resource management. The current specification does not very clearly state
when the media resource can be discarded for permanent StreamHeader and CacheUnit. The
current specification of “append” value does not clearly indicate whether existing resource are
reused when it is used with NewScene because the append value is ignored when it is
combined with NewScene.
It is agreed :
 to modify the definition of StreamHeaders to reflect the transient behaviour of
media resources.
 Permanent cache units are not affected by the append value or by the user
agent exiting.
 Define two new items in the definition (DCOR)
 transient : resource is used once and by only one media element
 permanent : the resources should remain in the terminal after the session
or exiting of user agent until their lifetime is over. But they could be
removed when there is no enough memories in the terminal.
 Permanent is only used for cacheUnit. Transient is used for the media except
cacheUnit.
 action item : check the use of “permanent” is aligned with this definition.
 Redefine “append” as “NewSceneIndicator” representing a hint that the first
LASeR command is a NewScene (DCOR)
 true : the first LASeR command in this scene segment shall be a
NewScene.
 false : the first LASeR command in this scene segment may not be a
NewScene.
 NOTE : the terminal may remove the (parts of) existing scene tree when
it receives NewSceneIndicator==true for resource optimization.
 It will be clarified bye the DCOR that streamID is local to SAF session.
This contribution is also questioning whether the existing connection should be closed or not
when starting a new session. It was not possible to achieve the agreed solution. The results of
this discussion may need corrigendum and amendment. Further contributions are solicited.
M13099 : On the addition of uDOM to LASeR AMD1. Propose text to include uDOM API
support in LASeR  FPDAM

streamSource
 additional mode “repeatOne” to define the scenario showing only one
source until the change is requested by the server or user. This could be a
special case of playList mode.  add to TuC
 transitionEffect seems too heavy to implement. Propose to remove this
feature from TuC for further independent study.  this will be noted in
the TuC
Proposed refinement of LASeRevents.  add to TuC
Issues on Global IDs  add to TuC
Problem of animateScroll and propose a new mode “OBJECT”  TuC

M13096 : Proposal of LASeR abstract events : The contribution proposed modified list of
abstract events in the TuC. This can be used to expose events can be linked to the keys on the
device. This seems overlap with the key_code defined by SVGT1.2 using DOM events even
though the event in the contribution is not exactly same with them. This needs further
investigation  Update TuC.
Others :
M13302 : Proposal for SAF configuration. This contribution discusses signalling of main
stream and global streams can be used across SAF sessions. This needs further investigation
in a point of view of handing of multiple SAF session. The problem statement and the
proposed solution will be added to TuC.
M13097 : On connecting animations with media time lines. This contribution considers the
scenario of an animation dependent on a different time line than a scene time line and
animation progress according to something else than a time line such as remaining batteries. It
was difficult to agree on that this is the problem we should solve in LASeR. More input
needed to progress the issue.
M13303 : Request for a state chart describing the sequence of LASeR events related to
media decoding. This contribution proposes state diagram for LASeR events. It is agreed to
include following items in the FPDAM :
 diagram with four states : stop, connecting, pause/buffering, playing
 transitions = one event is sent when arriving in the new state
 Need to sync the diagram/event with events, such as preload, progress and
postload defined in the SVG.

Extension on Encoding of Wild Cards
35.3.2 Contributions
M13290: Proposal for efficient encoding of wildcards in BiM. This contribution proposes clarifications
and extensions to the technology currently in the BiM TuC for encoding wildcards. The ability to insert
regularly BiM encoded content within the lax encoded content was missing and will be added (the fix is
technically easy).
M13298: Request for the alignment of BiM wildcards with the anyXML encoding of LASeR. The
technique used in LASeR for anyXML encoding was presented. It has some similarities with
the lax decoding proposed in M13293, however it has also some differences, especially
anyXML is based on a static dictionary sent in the header of the AU while lax decoding
builds a dynamic dictionary sent inline with the encoded content. In order to assess the
differences in terms of implementation, functionality, compression and response to BiM
requirements, it was decided to open a Core Experiment.
M13293: Proposal for namespace prefix conservation in BiM. This contribution proposes a way to
conserve prefixes in QName expressions (such as XPath). The limitations of this approach were discussed:
the content author has to follow some restrictions when authoring instances with QName expressions in
content elements. Therefore the validity of these expressions after decoding cannot be guaranteed all the
time. The former proposal in Bangkok was to define a specific type-codecs to ensure the validity of these
expressions in all cases after decoding but it was judged too restrictive because this mandates the definition
and use of a new data-type in XML Schemas (e.g. for DIA) for those expressions.
Therefore it was decided:
a. to keep the functionality of preserving prefixes as in contribution (M13293) but its
limitation should be made clear in the specification
b. take back the previous contribution (M12888) and explain that this should be used if the
content author wants to make sure of the validity of the decoded QName expressions in all
situations. In particular we should define a new XML data-type (like QStringType to be
used by applications that need preservation of prefixes).
Both technologies should be added to the current TuC for Amd2.

Fragment Request Unit
35.4.2 Contributions
The promotion of the current TuC into a new part for MPEG-B (i.e., Part 2) was discussed.
Basically, the rationale of this choice is that this is more general than MPEG-7 although it
currently requires responses in MPEG-7 FUUs (currently textual but not excluding binary in
principle). There were some other questions on the need to standardize the server’s behaviour,
and relationship of this technology with other existing standards such as XQuery, REX …
The promotion of the TuC into MPEG-B Part 2 was agreed, and University of Wollongong
committed to lead the work on this.

2.0 Notes on discussions on Input Documents
During the meeting, MDS created four Break Out groups to better manage activities. These
considered DIA matters, REL Profile matters, DIS matters and DIP matters.
The DIA BoG and the REL BoG reports are included in the treatment of input documents. The DIP
group met briefly and dealt with minor issues on the DIP amendment on C++ resource bindings.
The DIS BoG produced the following report:
Report of DIS BoG
Mandates
1. Dispose of NB comments on ISO/IEC CD 21000-18.
2. Produce text of ISO/IEC FCD 21000-18.
91
a. Include text for multiplexer technology validated in the CE on DIS TuC.
3. Consult with ISO File Format experts on contribution m13342 as to whether generation of
such ISO Files is ok.
4. Establish CE workplan.
5. Update TuC text.
Discussion Notes and Realization of Mandates
Tue: 0900-1000
M1: Dispose of NB comments on ISO/IEC CD 21000-18

Disposed of the NONB comments.

Note: Draft disposition of ANB comments achieved during AhG.
o Still need to resolve the question of RTP handler.
Tue: 1400-1600

Draft disposition of the FRNB comments
o To be checked with FRNB.

Disposed of AUNB comments.

Some questions were raised during discussions that are not related to any current NB comments.
These can be discussed via email between the Montreux and Klagenfurt meetings. This might
result in an Editors Input to the Klagenfurt meeting.
o 1. In regards to the bbl:context attribute.
 If the same context is specified on more than one fragment then is it the case that
the subsequent fragment will replace the previous fragment at the location
indicated by the context.
 Do we need to clarify the text of the bbl:context attribute? For example
"attached" could be interpreted as the location that the element itself will take, or
the location into which the element will be appended/inserted.
o 2. For the attribute element and its child value-of, can we modify it to allow
simple fixed text value (rather than needing to evaluate an XPATH).
o 3. In 7.4.27 it states "rules for fragmenting the content returned by the parent include
element". However it is rules for fragmenting the content defined by the
conentTemplate which might include content return by an include, and also might
include user specified tags in the contentTemplate.
M2: Produce text of ISO/IEC FCD 21000-18

Work is ongoing on producing the text based on DoC.
o Editing period
 5 weeks – text available and to SC29 Secretariat on
 FCD ballot will then be due on
 This is about 6 weeks after the Klagenfurt meeting


Updated the TuC.
o Removed multiplexer (already evaluated).
o Added ISO File Format Handler
Updated the CE workplan.
o Removed multiplexer (already evaluated).
o Added ISO File Format Handler
Further discussions on remaining issues from the NB comments
o On AUNB-CD-034
 There could be a problem if a binding assumes to reference encoder/handler from
an instance, but then that binding is used by another instance that does not
register those. However, if the change to identify encoders and handlers by URI
is adopted, then the binding can just utilize those URIs. Whether these would still
need to be declared in the binding would need to be thought about.

The following clarifying comments were received from Joe:
 There will be an error if the instance does not register the handler/encoder.
This means that placing an ID reference within a binding places a
requirement on anything which will instantiate that binding to have an
appropriate handler.
This is one reason why the handler ID and handler type are two separate
attributes. A binding can ask for a handler with ID=”xyz”, and a parent
instance can attach whatever handler it likes to that ID.
We’re identifying handler/encoder TYPE via URI, not handler/encoder
ID, for the reason specified above.
Also, the handlers/encoders still need to be declared within a register
element because you need to be able to pass global parameters to them.
The one thing I’m uncomfortable about with all of this is that putting an
idref somewhere in a large xml document is a poor way to put
requirements on another document that uses it. It would be nice for it to
be more explicit – eg. Require all variables, handlers, encoders and
functions to be registered in a binding, but provide an attribute that
specifies that they are to be inherited from a parent document. This
sounds like a better approach.

The intent is to allow a Binding to reference a handler/encoder registered in an
Instance.

This might be possible if the Binding references the handler/encoder by its ID.

One issue is that it would require changing the data type of ref attribute of
abstractPkt from IDREF to NCName since IDREF is required to reference
an ID in the same document.
93

Another issue is how can the Binding be assured that the value of the ID it is
using is the same as that used by any Instance that uses the Binding.

Another issue is that if the Binding needs to supply (global) parameters to the
handler/encoder, then the handler/encoder needs to be registered in the Binding
anyway. Therefore how would this be different to the Binding just using the
handler declared in the Binding?

If the Binding does not need to provide parameters, then possibly what is
required is a new tool that enables the Binding to say "use whatever handler the
Instance wants".
For example a Binding could just contain Packet/Fragmentation rules with no
references to handlers at all. The Instance then decides what handler to use.

If the Binding does need to provide parameters then it at least needs to know the
handler type to know the parameters that can be provided.
Thu: 1120-1300

Disposition of the FRNB comments checked with FRNB
o The FRNB accepts the disposition of the comments, however encourages further study
related to use of namespace prefixes and if possible to not rely on these.
The use of namespace prefixes has presented difficulties in some other areas, for
example applying BiM, which could also affect ability to use DIS with these other tools.

On AUNB-CD-034
o An option might be to not have a handler registered in register but to have a parent
handler element of packet/packetStream elements:

instance.xml
-----------<bbl>
<instance>
<register>
...
</register>
<handler>
... global handler params ...
<packet>
... packet handler params...
</packet>
<packetStream>
<bind binding="binding.xml...>
...
</packetStream>

o A main issue in either the above syntax or in the existing syntax seems to be if the
Binding requires providing handler parameters, then it needs to somehow know the type
of the handler to know the parameters, plus to identify the handler.
o Since a Binding specifies how to fragment a given format for a given delivery
mechanism, it will know the Type of handler. It could reference a handler only by Type.
 This would require changes to current syntax.
 Not clear if this would work if global parameters are required for the handler in
the Binding.
 How is it different from the current situation except for the use of id to reference
the handler?
o One question regarding the comment is what is meant by the statement that different
instances might instantiate the same binding but using different handlers? Is a binding
not specific to a particular delivery mechanism (i.e. handler)? – according to current text
a Binding can use more than one handler.
o If the Binding is sort of like a function in which you could also pass to it the parameters
required for the handler in the Instance, then there might be no need to statically specify
the handler parameters in the Binding.
 To what extent would the Binding still need to understand the parameters in that
it needs to know what data to supply for the parameters?
o Another option is to have some other, almost similar in syntax, element to handler and
handler parameters, but that it "just declares" and does not "instantiate" the handler.
 Depending on what is understood as the semantics of a handler element in a
register element, the semantics might only be slightly different. However, if the
semantics are the "the BBL processor is to find, load, etc the software module
thus registered", then the semantics do have a difference.
o A question was raised as to whether a Binding is intended to allow more than one
handler (as the current text allows).
o What happens in the case where a handler is registered in both the Instance and Binding
and both supply global parameters? The text appears to be silent on this (and on global
handler parameters in general).
o The issue does not seem to be resolvable at the current meeting. We can continue to
discuss this prior to the Klagenfurt meeting and possibly provide a contribution to that
meeting, along with appropriate NB comments.

13338
Peder Drege Gerrard Drury Thomas Skjolberg
Report on CE Digital Item Streaming TuC
Input:
The prioritizing Mutiplexer in the DIS TuC was investigated. The aim is to minimize delays for
receiving peers.
Actions:
To continue this CE to evaluate 1) Time schemes 2) ECMAScript XPath functions 3) Simple
fragmentation rule 4) ECMAscript based event handlers during fragmentation 5) Including encoders
in the processing. Text on the multiplexer would be prepared for the FCD text.
13342
An ISO File output Handler for Digital Item
Streaming
Joseph Thomas-Kerr Ian Burnett
Input:
Takes an MPEG-21 Digital Item and binds it to a ISO FF with hint tracks. This handler creates a
BBL processor which allows hinted ISO files to be generated in a versatile way from file formats.
Another use is to generate MAF files – the BBL could be added to MAFs to allow ISO files to be
generated in the MAFs. Presents a BBL handler to produce a ISO FF. This allows production of
ISO FFs offline an improves scalability of BBL. The handler also allows generic hinting and MAF
file generation.
Actions:
96
DIS BoG will consult with ISO FF experts and consider how this input may be incorporated/utilized
in the DIS standardization.
13069
Niels Rump Chris Barlas Steffen Lindek Daniel Mahler Godfrey Rust
An OWL implementation of the RDD – Towards
Utility Software
Input:
No tools existed when RDD was under development that could really act as a formal representation.
There now are software tools that can provide such a formal representation. This input provides an
OWL-lite representation of the RDD and this has been tested with the PELLET reasoner and the
JENA rules engine. An RDF file has been created. It was concluded that an unambiguous mapping
to a computable ontology language is possible. Recommends utility software be created as an OWL
simulation. The input does not include all human semantics of the RDD ontology.
Actions:
At the next meeting where the Corrigendum s completed, MDS will consider new utility software
being added to the reference software.

Proposal for an MPEG-21 DIA Base Profile
Input:
97
Proposed a base profile for MPEG-21 DIA based on UED.
Actions:
There was concern about a lack of industry support and that there was not significant industry
adoption of DIA. It was decided that we should not proceed at this stage with the profile but that we
would invite inputs on use of DIA in industry applications.

Input:
This document concerns the impact on interoperability with other RELs if there is no ‘Inherit’ right
in the base profile. Three approaches are analysed: Current Base Profile Approach, Inherit Right
Approach, Prerequisite Right Condition.
Actions:
There were difficulties understanding the OMA inherit right. At the AHG it was agreed that
remaining with the first approach is the best course of action. This will be the case unless MPEG
receives further clarification from OMA.
13090

Interoperability between OMA DRM v2.0 Extensions
for Broadcast Support and MPEG-21 REL DACX
Profile
Input:
This suggests that there are missing issues in the mapping between the OMA and REL DACX
profile.
Actions:
To be discussed further but it would appear that it is useful to have a solid mapping to OMA.
99
13118
Towards the interoperability between MPEG-21 REL
and Creative Commons licenses
Jaime Delgado Eva Rodríguez
Input:
Looks at how CC concepts can be mapped to MPEG-21. Looks at whether the semantics of the
REL terms and CC usage are the same. A simple mapping may not really map semantics. A
necessary step is to add extensions which is a simpler solution. Alternatively MPEG could provide
REL expressions equivalent to CC licenses.
Actions:
To be discussed further within the Open Release MAF discussions Tuesday pm.
13225
Hendry Munchurl Kim Youngjoo Song Kiho Jeong
Proposed MPEG-21 REL Profile for Middleware

Inputs:
This input described progress from the CE. There was much discussion on the need for an
RDDCapabilities descriptor given that there are no RDD profiles.
Actions:
There was consensus on the RELCapability Descriptor but doubts were raised on the value and
need for the RDDCapabilities Descriptor. There is a need to demonstrate application and product
implementation requirements for the latter.
It was decided that an RA is unnecessary as the identifier of the REL is a urn.

Contribution to CE on REL-RDD Terminal Capabilities – Capabilities Parser and REL Translator Service
Inputs:
This input described a set of extra services that might be useful for the REL Capabilities descriptor
work. A capabilities parser and a Translator service were presented.
Actions:
There was consensus that the capabilities parser could become part of the reference software for
DIA and the Translator service as Utility software for DIA. These would need to be updated to meet
the final text specification and release of the software has yet to be ascertained.

Report back from Break Out Group on Protected Music Player MAF
Agreement was reached on:
Layer 1: IPMP_INFO information as a IPMPX construct in the MP4 file (in the sinf box).
Layer 2/3: As above or as XML in the IPMP_DIDL
This will be tested in a CE and text created for this harmonization. Work will be done to enhance
the IPMP_INFO descriptors that describe the specific algorithm for the specific approach.
MAF Reference s/w & conformance
Current Music player MAF – combines other reference software code e.g. MP3 player and the MP4
file format reference s/w. The latter will be updated using an MPEG-4 part 5 amendment.
MAF ref s/w should contain full software modules and then state in a note that later versions might
be available at XXXX. Top level Java which calls lower level APIs.
Conformance – do we need an ISOFF MAF format validator. Conformance will be levels.
13168
Myriam Amielh Ernest Wan
FID Conformance
Inputs:
Proposes the conformance points for FID and gives test data and conformance bitstreams. The
reference software has also been updated on the reference s/w site.
Actions:
Add this to the Conformance CD.
Conformance CD will be output from this meeting. The document was reviewed. Some extra
material on J-DIXOs is required and an output document reference must be removed.
On IPMP reference software /conformance ICU, Korea have put forward reference software based
on the Ghent & UoW DIDL & IPMP reference software contributions. This will be sent to the
MPEG-21 reference software site.
Current Reference s/w status
The current reference software status is as follows:
DID 2nd edition updates may be required
DII ref s/w part of DID ref s/w – to be modified with the Amendment changes
IPMP Components – ICU to provide + some on-site
105
REL – available but base profile ref s/w will be complete once the profile is stable. Other profiles
(e.g. DAC) may be available during standard process.
RDD – s/w to be updated + Utility s/w to be added next meeting (including COR and AMD)
DIA – v1 complete, AMD/1 s/w + utility s/w available, AMD/2 – workplan states available next
meeting
FF - reference ISO FF but we need extras to cater for MPEG-21
DIP – Complete ref s/w incl AMD/1
ER – Some s/w available – may need updates
BiM – references MPEG-B ref s/w
FID – reference s/w available
DIS – reference software available next meeting

In the opening plenary, the video subgroup decided to handle all documents that were either
registered or delivered late, except for those documents that had not been uploaded until April 3,
14:00 MEST. The latter category (4 documents on IDCT 23002-2) were decided not to be
considered.

New Colour Spaces
The FPDAMs on new colour spaces (and new aspect ratios) were produced. No specific comments
of NBs were received, therefore the FPDAM texts remained unchanged relative to the PDAM
documents.

Multiview Video Coding
In Multiview Video Coding, the main issues in Montreux were
- Review of CE results achieved so far, and definition of new CEs.
- Buffer management and high-level syntax
- Promotion of MVC as future amendment to AVC.
The following experiments had been defined in Bangkok (see N7798 of the 75th meeting):

CE1: View-temporal prediction structures

CE2: Illumination compensation

CE3: View interpolation prediction

CE4: Disparity vector prediction

CE5: Asymmetric macroblock partitioning
Despite the fact that most CE participants had to do the migration step into the JSVM software, first
reasonable results were achieved in the short time frame between Bangkok ad Montreux meetings.
CE1 and different sub-experiments:

Buffer management in view/temporal decomposition structures (M13121,M13122): Finished;
results achieved so far have been transferred into the document “Technology under Study for
Buffer Management and High-level Syntax in Multiview Video Coding”; software developed
will be provided for further study.

Structures enabling low delay (M13212): Finished; results obtained will appear in the annex
describing encoder settings (for optional low-delay cases) in the new version of the CE
description document.

Different encoding orders/dependencies (M13196, M13198, M13218, M13247): Partially
completed, to be continued

Flexibility in Group of GOP / Group of Multiview structure descriptions: No conclusive results
yet (M13195), to be continued.
CE2:

Results (M13143, M13191, M13194, M13317, M13361) indicate up to 0.5 dB gain

To be continued and compared against AVC with weighted prediction (available only recently,
algorithm was developed to set weighting parameters)
CE3 (M13123, M13216)

Results on improved view interpolation method presented

No concrete coding results yet, to be continued; buffer management software developed in CE1
to be used.
CE4:

No concrete coding results yet, to be continued with improved work plan (M13166).
CE5:

No results, to be discontinued by request of the participants.
For the continuation of the experiments, the following rules were decided:

New Core Experiment proposals shall only accepted if clear evidence on benefits is shown

New participants can join existing Core Experiments such that they can show evidence about
their proposals under same conditions
Considering these rules, the proponents of M13150 were asked to provide results under CE2
conditions by the next meeting, and proponents of M13177 were asked to provide results under CE4
conditions. M13174 was not considered as a useful part of CE4, because no evidence was shown
that the “symmetric” method which addresses the problem of irregular spacing of cameras being
specific for very untypical situations would give any benefit under CE4 conditions.
118
From M13320, evidence was reported that modification of the de-blocking filter for multi-view
situations might be beneficial. Implementing one additional rule for higher filter strength specific
for constellations at „disparity edges“ was proposed. This will be further investigated in the new
CE6, most probably with need for subjective viewing comparison by the next meeting.
Signaling the dependencies within and between views, and also capabilities for random access to
sequences of specific views require harmonization with the picture buffer management and highlevel syntax of AVC. First ideas on these issues were presented in M13121, M13122 and M13319.
Most probably, (a) new NAL unit type(s) needs to be defined for MVC. Many of the access
principles currently developed for SVC can most probably be extended to the SVC case, but further
study on these issues is required. To maintain the ideas currently under discussion, an output
document “Technology under Study for Buffer Management and High-level Syntax in Multiview
Video Coding” was produced. Software will be provided where needed in the CEs, and further
exploration of these issues will be performed under the AHG mandate.
The request for a new MVC amendment for 14496-10 was made. From the viewpoint of the video
subgroup, continuation of the MVC work within JVT appears most reasonable and is also desired
by the participants.
The following documents were reviewed jointly with the Requirements subgroup:

Requirements for FTV and 3DTV to Multi-view video coding
(MVC)
Low delay and capability to partial decoding of pictures are
considered important.
Requests on schedule of Multi-view video coding (MVC)
standardization
Keep schedule as it is, because currently we do not have
evidence that technology to be included in the amendment
would e.g. require major change of AVC architecture. For
example, most issues related to flexible access, scalability etc.
were already developed in the context of SVC.

MPEG-7 Visual continues to run a series of CE’s related to Visual tools and DS for image or photolibraries with the key objective to develop new visual Description Schemes and other algorithms for
use with digital image libraries, such as personal collections of photos from digital cameras. This
will become a new amendment of part 7, for which the WD was started in Montreux. The following
functionalities are supported:
– Situation/view based image clustering
– Categorisation into broad classes, such as Beach/Sea/River/Indoors. (classes to be
determined)
– Subject-Face-based automatic annotation
– Search for copies or modifications of an image/photo using visual identifiers
(signatures)
– Multi-shot detection. Detection of multiple similar shots (signatures)
– Query by example
– Query by sketch (from memory)
– Query/search based on objects, such as “my dog” or “my car”
– Retrieval by objects present (more generic that 7, any object)
Further ongoing CEs are intended to identify potential technology for a future amendment of part 3
(Visual). The following topics are considered:
• VCE-3 on person identity-based photo classification
Objectives: to evaluate and improve performance of the identity-based clustering on typical
family photos (using existing tools)
• VCE-4 – Robust Face Recognition technology
This CE shall explore what technologies, if any, are superior to the current AFRD,
especially in the context of recognition of facial images in video content and images acquired with
digital cameras. The main focus is on robustness to significant variations in pose, illumination and
facial expression.
• VCE-5 – Evaluation of MPEG-7 Face Recognition Technology on IR Images
IR visual data is becoming more widely used in many applications, such as surveillance
video or medical images. We will asses the performance of the existing MPEG tools on this type of
data.
• VCE-6 Visual Identifiers
This CE shall explore what technologies, if any, are superior to the current MPEG-7 visual
descriptors, for the task of identifying original images and their modified versions (Visual
Identifiers or Fingerprints)
Work on amending the software and conformance parts by the elements of the recently approved
3D perceptual shape descriptor is progressing. Defect reports on part 3 and part 7 (concerning
Amd.1) were produced
Output documents:
No.

6.1 23002-2 Fixed-point DCT/IDCT
A number of contributions were provided toward the work on specification of a fixed-point 8x8
IDCT standard. Numbers of the contributions are provided in the table below. The group decided
not to proceed with issuing a new version of the working draft. The current WD, as valid from the
75th (Bangkok) meeting, for testing purposes contains a couple of variants of three families of
designs. Even though considerable effort was made in stabilizing the test bed, currently not
sufficient evidence is available to select only one of the different designs. One main achievement of
the past period was made by investigating and better understanding drift effects. Comparison is
made by running a precise (floating-point) DCT at one end (e.g. encoder), and one of the fixedpoint implementations at the other end (e.g. decoder). It was found that for such configurations drift
is in particular critical for very small QP (which may be less relevant for real-world applications),
and is more critical in cases of interference of imprecise IDCT with quarter-pel motion
compensation in MPEG-4 Visual. The test with precise IDCT at one end does however not fully
reflect the situation of combining the new integer IDCT algorithm with one of the implementations
existing in the market. It is currently hoped that by average, drift with existing implementations
would also be minimized when it is minimized in combination with the perfect IDCT. This issue
however requires further study. Further aspects, such as linearity of IDCT implementations, can be
considered using test bit streams that were provided by Sarnoff Labs.
In general, the evaluation process turns out to be more difficult than expected, because different
proposals on the table fulfil different criteria differently well. To circumvent this deadlock, more
precise study of the requirements appears necessary.
Documents marked red were not available by the beginning of the video SG meeting. The video
subgroup plenary decided not to consider these documents

6.2 23002-3 Auxiliary Video Data Representation
The purpose of ISO/IEC 23002-3 Auxiliary Video Data Representations is to support all those
applications where additional data needs to be efficiently attached to the individual pixels of a
regular video. In ISO/IEC 23002-3 it is described how this can be achieved in a generic way by
making use of existing (and even future) video codecs available within MPEG.
The CD of the standard was issued according to the plan. As compared to the WD, a number of
items were editorially enhanced. One minor issue regarding sub-sampled data maps and
corresponding pixel positions relative to the original video has been resolved during the week.

Finally, the white paper explaining the purpose and method of AVD representation was approved
(N8039).

Explorations
7.1 Reconfigurable Video Coding
RVC is targeting description languages and tools that would allow definition of decoder
configurations, and accessing library of video coding tools. It shall provide means to convey
to a device a decoder configuration description and bitstream syntax description.
The main work item in the RVC activity has been the promotion of the CfP (see report of the
Requirements subgroup). More work appears necessary regarding evaluation criteria. Technically, a
new version of the software was approved, and new versions of the Study and Textual Description
docs were approved. All three RVC outputs (N8040-N8042) are foreseen to be publicly distributed
along with the Call.
An example of an efficient decoder configuration description is given in M13192. It is
shown that the toolbox configuration of MPEG-4 Part 2 Simple Profile can be signalled in
binary format using only 2700 bits. The equivalent textual description would consume more
than 11000 bits.
One additional item discussed and potentially becoming important for the future is that
conformance is rather clear for functional units, but may be difficult to define at the level of
decoder capabilities.

7.2 Wavelet Video Coding
The AHG on Wavelet Video Coding has been very active to prepare sequences for subjective
viewing tests in Montreux. The following items were tested:
– Combined scalability (spatial/temporal/SNR): Significantly worse performance than JSVM
– Standalone SNR scalability: Comparable / slightly worse performance than JSVM
In principle, this leaves the current status of development similar as it was in the Palma meeting,
when the new exploration was started. Combined scalability is mandatory requirement for
universally scalable codecs. Currently, no application scenario is evident where WVC would be
advantageous over the emerging AVC-SVC standard.
Considering the visual performance results from this test, as reported in N8043 and in the report of
the test subgroup, the video subgroup has come to the conclusion that the wavelet video coding
solution investigated within MPEG is currently not mature enough to be considered for
standardization in scalable video coding. It is therefore recommended to discontinue the exploration
on wavelet video coding at this time. The video subgroup encourages future contributions showing
evidence about the usefulness of wavelet video coding in any standardization framework. Experts
are encouraged to submit contributions by the next meeting highlighting the technical reasons for
the result and propose further areas of investigation.

7.3 Increased Video Compression Efficiency
During the Future Video Coding Workshop in Nice, a number of issues were identified that may be
of interest for upcoming video activities. Most of these issues, such as extended support for various
color spaces and support for multiview coding, are now already under preparation for standard
amendments. One of the major topics had however been the investigation of potentially increased
compression efficiency. Therefore, it was decided to install an AHG as a follow-up of these
workshop activities, which would have the mandates to identify technologies that could increase
the compression efficiency as compared to current standard solutions, collect more evidence about
these technologies and define conditions that would allow evaluation and testing under comparable
and reproducible conditions. From the context of the AHG activities, three input papers were
reviewed related to
– Wiener filters for adaptive sub-pixel interpolation
– MC residual coding in spatial domain
– combination thereof
Compression gains of up to 25% bit rate reduction were shown (less in average). In principle it
would be technically simple to implement the methods listed above into any of the existing
standards. Hints were given that a more detailed analysis for more divergent set of sequences would
be required to be better able to judge the real value; if such an AHG activity would be installed for
longer term, it would be an urgent action to establish test criteria by which such results should be
brought to MPEG.

This contribution presented information on one system that was used to submit two systems to the
binaural tests, those being Coding Technologies/FhG and Philips/Vast, and one system to the 3D
test, that being FhG. The system basically is a two-input, two-output transformation system, where
the two in is the stereo downmix (in the QMF domain) and the two out is the stereo signal for
presentation via headphones. In the case of mono downmix, a decorrelator is used to create a second
channel. In this architecture there is no need to construct a multichannel signal in the QMF domain.
The contribution noted that rm_adg system in the 3D tests uses only existing RM0 tools, and was
realized using the existing RM0 specification.
The 3D tests for fhg used an encoder that contained the identical two-input, two-output
transformation architecture to create the binauralized downmix signal. If the decoder has the
identical two-input, two-output transformation architecture (as in the Coding Technologies/FhG and
Philips/Vast proposals), then the binaurlization can be identically inverted with the result that the
decoded multichannel signal is not impaired. The architecture supports additional reverberation
tools separate from the two-by-two operator and which provide for lower complexity. The
contribution contains a table that shows how the three contributions are constructed from the
existing tools in RM0 and proposed new tools.

which the current RM0 architecture is used to create the 5.1 channel QMF domain signals.
Approximations to the QMF-domain HRTFs are used in the QMF domain, where that
approximation is a filter with the structure A(z)D(z)P(z), in which
A(z) is real-valued, and reduces to scalar at high frequency
D(z) is 6th-order FIR fractional-sample delay filter, present only in low bands

The contribution presented details of the eri system. It uses exactly the MPEG Surround
architecture, but restricted to only needing to compute the L, R upmix channels. The binauralization

is done via adapting the spatialization side information. The adaptation models the gain and delay of
the first arrival in the HRTF, and compensates for the total energy in the HRTF by adjusting the
gain.
Complexity discussions
The group created a table that captured the complexity of the various proposals. This involved
considerable discussion, and will be checked by group members prior to the MPEG Surround task
group meeting during the MPEG week. The Chair took the complexity data and the performance
data and created a unified Performance-Complexity plot for the Binaural case (VT1 and VT2a).

Systems aspects of audio
This presented a number of issues relating to the Audio/Systems interface. It was concluded that the
“homework” for the Audio Subroup is to determine how to insure that:

It is be well-defined how to subset ('edit') such a stream (how much pre-roll data should be taken to the new
environment along with the desired audio?). This includes discussing the case where two audio segments that
were encoded separately are then concatenated; does the second segment need a ‘silent’ pre-roll (one assumes
normally it would)?
Noboru Harada , NTT, made a presentation on support for 64-bit address-space in ALS files. This
was discussed, and led to the following suggested solutions:
Large metadata amounts of metadata information could alternatively be put a track-level static
metadata box. The nature of the specific data, and the associated metadata handler, can be registered
as a 4-character-code at the MPEG-4 file format registration authority (www.mp4ra.org). It was
further noted that the actual metadata can be in an external file and referenced from the metadata
box. Finally, the current solution from Audio could be extended by having a logical flag in
audospecifconfig() that indicates that the metadata is either in the audiospecificconfig(), or
somewhere else.

It was agreed that MAF reference software should be “self-contained,” (e.g. containing all

include an example application as a pre-compiled Win32 executable. Most likely the applicationlevel code will be Java as most MPEG-21 reference software is written in Java. Other components
can be in Java or in C. For example, the base layer music player can be

Erik Schuijers
This contribution presented a method for arbitrary output channel trees, permitting an arbitrary
number of output speakers with, to a large extent, arbitrary speaker position. It was noted that
MPEG Surround in 515 mode can support 414, 313 and 212 modes, and similarly, 525 can support
424 and 323 modes.
The proposal extends existing designated modes (e.g. 515 and 525) using an arbitrary tree of OTT
boxes. The side-information rate for the extension is:
CLD info of 1 kb/s/box
1 bit/box and 1bit/loudspeaker (i.e. tree terminator signalling)
The tree terminates on speakers from left to right, and uses an existing channel to speaker mapping
table found in the Microsoft WAV file format.
It was the consensus of the Audio Subgroup to put this technology in Study on MPEG Surround

This contribution notes that one can realize increased efficiency at the interface between the core
coder and the MPEG Surround decoder by removing redundancies in the core coder frequency-totime mapping and the MPEG surround QMF analysis filterbank time-to-frequency mapping. It does
not require any signalling in the bitstream.
It noted that the MPEG Surround FCD text currently suggets that HE-AAC be connected to MPEG
Surround via the QMF domain. Heiko Purnhagen, Coding Technologies, noted that the contribution
does not contain any specification of the MDCT to QMF mapping. Further discussion suggested
that there is no “short cut” for MDCT to QMF mapping, such that any connection that remains in
the frequency domain requires complexity equal to that of a time-domain connection (i.e. IMDCT
to QMF synthesis).
The consensus was that the Study on MPEG Surround FCD text should be clarified so that
 a QMF-domain connection between HE-AAC core coder and MPEG Surround is preferred,
for complexity reasons.
 if the MPEG Surround side information is multiplexed into the access units of the core coder,
the delay for QMF-domain connection (HE-AAC) or time-domain connection (other codecs)
is clearly indicated.

This contribution summarized the history of the envelope reshaping CE and presented FhG listening
test results. The TES and TP tools both address the problem of providing sufficient detail in the
time-domain envelope given that the transmitted audio downmix is a mix, and hence a confounding,
of the time-domain envelopes of the multichannel signal. Reshaping operates on the “dry”
component of the signal (i.e. first arrival of the transient), and does not operate on the reverberant
component since the latter component does not give strong directionality cues.
It was noted that, for all three listening tests, the mean score for the two applause items was greater
for TES_Reshape than for TP, although the mean scores were not different at the 95% level of
significance.
A component of the proposal alters RM0 so that the “stride” parameter in the bitstream can take on
the value of 28, rather than the current maximum of 10. This permits a lower side information rate
when applying guided envelope shaping. The extended stride (28) permits significant savings in
bitrate, and some of those bits can be used for envelope reshaping, so that there is no significant
change in bitrate for the TES versus the TES_Resh systems.

The data from this and the previous two test sites was pooled and this data was presented. In TC1,
for one of the applause items the performance of TES_Resh was better than that of TES at the 95%
level of significance. In all cases, the mean performance of TES_Resh was better than that of TP. Ttests on the mean of the difference in the scores of TES_Resh and TP (i.e. TES_Resh-TP) showed
statistically significant improvements at the 95% level for
the applause items.
The Chair noted that TES_Resh is always better than either of TES and TP. Hence there may be no
need to keep the TP tool in the standard.
It was the consensus of the Audio Subgroup to put the TES_Resh technology in Study on MPEG
Surround FCD document.

This contribution presented an overview of the high-quality (HQ) and low-complexity (LC)
versions of RM0, and the proposed low-power (LP) version of MPEG Surround. The target
complexity of the LP version is 50% of that of the HQ version. The principal means of complexity
reduction in LP is to use real-valued data whenever possible. This includes a filterbank in which
complex values are used for the bottom X bands, but real-values are used for the remaining bands.
Informal listening tests indicate that the LP version in 525 mode has performance quite close to that
of the HQ mode, and achieves the 50% complexity target with respect to HQ in 525 mode.
It was the consensus of the Audio Subgroup to take the following actions:
 Draft a workplan that describes the additional listening tests.
 Prepare delta text on the proposed LP specification as output document.
 Select the STP or TES tools (or both), for the LP, LC and HQ versions of MPEG Surround.
This selection will be an AHG activity documented in the workplan.

This contribution is associated with an ongoing CE whose objective is to obtain a stereo signal as an
intermediate output in a 515 MPEG Surround configuration. It reported on two listening tests:
 Comparison of 5152 CT, 5152 Sam, 5153 for stereo signals
 Comparison of 5152 CT, 5152 Sam, 5153 for multichannel signals
Where 5152 CT and 5152 Sam each derive a stereo output by modifing the transmitted parameters
to derive OTT parameters such that stereo is available. 5153 uses an OTT box and hence transmits
the OTT parameters.
Heiko Purnhagen, Coding Technologies, asked whether bitrate information for the 5153
configuration is available. JungHoe Kim, provided this information as a slide in the presentation.

This contribution presented a cross-check on the listening test of the preceding contribution. It
presented some reservations concerning the potential adoption of the 5153 tree:
 5153 is over-parameterized, and so will have a higher bitrate that 5151 and 5152.
 It gives performance for the stereo signal that is not different from the 525CT system, at the
95% level of confidence.
 It gives performance for the multichannel signal that is not different from the 525CT system,
at the 95% level of confidence, but whose mean score is lower than that of the 525CT
system.
The Chair asked for a summary of the functions of and differences between 5151 and 5152 trees.
Kristofer Kjörling stated that the first was optimized for high bitrate applications, while the second
was optimized for low bitrate applications.
There was much discussion on the relative advantages, disadvantages and risk associated with the
two most promising methods, 5152CT and 5152. Eunmi Oh, Samsung, proposed that the 5153
approach be continued with new performance and implementation evidence brought to the next
meeting. However, it was the consensus of the Audio Subgroup to select the 5152CT method as the
means to produce stereo in the 515 operating mode.

This contribution reviewed how to carry “buried data” in a PCM signal. This technology was
developed by Philips some time ago, and has been published. The workplan for this item asked for
the following information:
 Range of rates for the buried information
 Listening test results for the stereo signal with buried data, to insure that the stereo signal
with buried data is not impaired.
In the listening test the reference was an ITU-T stereo downmix of the multichannel test items and
the system under test was the stereo signal containing buried data at the rate of 200 kb/s. This
permitted extensive use of residual coding such that the quality of the 5-channel reconstruction
approaches that of AAC discrete 5-channel coding. The test results showed no difference at the 95%
level of significance between the hidden reference and the system under test.

Using the RM0 downmix gain, frameGainDMX, the downmix clipping problem is a tradeoff
between reduced dynamic range and clipping. The proposal describes an additional dynamic gain
factor that can be specified each frame and optionally for each channel.
The listening test results showed that the performance of the proposed method (FG) was not
different from that of the current RM capability (ADG) at the 95% level of significance.
Complexity and bitrate information was presented for both FG and ADG. It was noted that the FG
proposal is similar to a broadband compressor, while the ADG capability is more similar to a
multiband compressor, although there was no information on which is a more appropriate technical
solution for the clipping problem. The clear difference between the two proposals is that they have
different bitrates for their side information.
It was decided to do a more precise investigation of the bitrates of the two systems as a homework
assignment, to be reported at tomorrows (Wed) re-convening of this task group.

Proposed CE on Localization Improvement for MPEG Surround

The contribution reviewed the possible mechanisms for multichannel binauralization. If made a
proposal for a specific method, as follows:
143


Arbitrary horizontal location , approximately every 5 degrees, leads to 72 HRTF.
Best to have a mechanism to interpolate the HRTF in the parametric domain, e.g.
principal components analysis.
This permits encoding of N source encodes to M channels, and which leads to a simple panning
law. It was noted that the MPEG Surround binauralization process is similar to the multchannel
binauralization described in the contribution, in that one can interpret the BCC parameter as an
encoding stage of above.
This could be applied to single-channel sources and hence have application to gaming. Juergen
Herre, FhG, noted that MPEG Surround is now “natural rendering,” while this is more like “flexible
rendering” as described in BCC work.
In the discussion, this could lead to possible extensions to MPEG Surround
 Extensions for gaming (with “dry” sources). No bitstream changes
 Rotating “natural” multichannel sound stage. No bitstream changes

This contribution presented the concept that the content provider controls the sound stage, and not
the consumer. The algorithm is compatible with any of the binauralization proposals in the binaural
CE. It interpolates between stored HRTFs that are associated with e.g. uniform positions around the
sphere of possible “straight-ahead” positions. Nokia provided a demo in which the half-sphere was
quantized into 64 positions.
A summary of it salient characteristics are:
 31 bits/frame at max rate.
 Supports users with personalized HRTFs
 5.1 channel output is not modified.
 Requires some storage for the HRTFs associated with the quantized spatial locations
Juergen Herre, FhG, noted that this proposal is an authoring tool rather than a means for
compression of 5-channel content. The proponent noted that the output from such a system would
not be a conformance point, that Grid points might be missing so as to provide scalable complexity,
and hence that the processing be considered an informative of

MPEG Surround Simplification of Parameter Smoothing
J. Herre
The contribution reviewed that fact that there is in MPEG Surround a parameter smoothing tool. It
has two modes, one an “encoder” mode and the second a “decoder” mode. The question on the table
is whether both are needed, specifically, whether the “decoder” mode is needed.
144
The decoder or “automatic” mode requires a tonality calculation, which requires between 3.2 and 6
MOPS. Memory requirements are such that an entire QMF frame is required, rather than only a
single slot as it required by most tools in MPEG surround. The automatic tool is only applied under
high compression conditions, and was used in TC3. Bitrate information was provided that showed
that the “encoder” mode requires approximately a 200 b/s additional rate relative to the automatic
mode. Listening test showed that the two operating modes have equal performance at the 95% level
of significance.
Consensus of the Group to remove the automatic mode from study on MPS FCD

The Use of Perceptual Parameters for Room Effects
13278
Marc Emerit
Customization in MPEG Surround
This contribution notes that Advanced Audio BIFS contains a node that supports perceptual
reverberation effects. Perceptual parameters are easy for a non-expert to control. However, the best
quality would be achieved if at least the first arrivals and early diffuse reverberation are done within
the MPEG Surround decoder. Late reverberation is also best done in the subband domain, in that it
permits separate decay time constants for low and high frequencies.
The contribution noted that this technology is most interesting if it has user control parameters, and
hence it is important to understand how they can be made available to an MPEG Surround decoder.

Proposal for MPEG Surround Profiles and Levels
Werner Oomen
This contribution proposes a profile and associated levels for MPEG Surround.
Chair asked for separate bitstream and decoder profile tables. This appears to be particularly
important if a “level N” MPEG Surround Decoder can decode a “level N+1” bitstream. Mark
Vinton, Dolby Labs, noted that the table in the contribution was incorrect with regard to exactly this
issue.
The Chair proposed that Heiko Purnhagen and interested parties edit the document and bring it
forward for approval on Friday Morning, with the understanding that it have the title “Thoughts on
MPEG Surround Profiles and levels.”

Contribution presented a container or “box” mechanism for compressed data that a decoder might
optionally skip. Chair noted that there were other methods for carrying the length of boxes, e.g.
such as those used in MPEG-4 Systems. It further presented a method for carrying MPEG Surround
in MPEG-1 Layer 1, 2, 3 (in which no changes are necessary) and in MPEG-2 AAC and MPEG-4
AAC (both of which will require amendments)
It was requested that:
 Container mechanism be included in the Study on MPEG Surround FCD.
 The proposed amendment text for MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 be used to start amendments.
Chair asked to defer decision on this contribution
General discussion
Samsung presented a proposal for an informative annex that shows a method for “scalable channel
decoding.” It was the consensus of the Audio Subgroup to incorporate this into the text of the Study
of MPEG Surround FCD.
LGE presented a proposal for an informative annex that shows how artistic downmix gain (ADG)
can be use to prevent clipping in the downmix signal. It was the consensus of the Audio Subgroup
to incorporate this into the text of the Study of MPEG Surround FCD.
Binaural and 3D Core Experiment
The Chair reviewed the combined 3D test results. It was the consensus of the Audio Subgroup to
incorporate the “fhg_1” technology into the text of the Study of MPEG Surround FCD.
The Chair reviewed the combined Binaural test results. It was the consensus of the Audio Subgroup
to incorporate the CT/FhG and Philips/Vast technology into the text of the Study of MPEG
Surround FCD. It was noted that Anisse Taleb, Ericsson, dissented from the above position.
The Chair reviewed the fact that the Binaural functionality requires a standardized interface for
bringing HRTF data inside the decoder. It was the consensus of the Audio Subgroup that the
normative interface be:
QMF filter coefficient domain for the “CT/FhG” operating mode
Parametric coefficient domain for the “Philips/Vast” operating mode
It was the consensus of the Audio Subgroup that the following be informative:
Time-Domain HRFT to QMF filter coefficient transformation for “CT/FhG” operating mode
Time-Domain HRFT to parametric coefficient transformation for “Philips/Vast” operating
mode
The Chair asked that Pierrick Phillipe, France Telecom, lead a group in drafting a workplan that
addresses issues pertaining to an amendment to MPEG Surround. It was the consensus of the Audio
Subgroup that the following be considered for and define the scope of such an amendment:
 FT Binaural system, “efficient room effect modeling” component
 Perceptual room effect
 Sound Stage (binaural multichannel)
 Gaming applications
The Chair expects a Workplan that covers
 General MPEG Surround CE and other activities
 Investigation of microphone technology that might be particularly suitable for MPEG
Surround
Open issues
The Chair asked for a discussion of the Nokia proposal “Further information on binaural decoder
functionality.” Marc Emerit, France Telecom, stated that this is authoring information, which
should not be put in a bitstream of compression data. Anisse Taleb, Ericsson, does not support this
use case, which he stated is about presentation and not coding. Pasi Ojala, Nokia, notes that the rate
for this use case is about 5 bits/frame.
146
The Chair asked for a discussion of the ETRI proposals on visualization and sound scene control.
Concerning multichannel sound scene control, ETRI brought forward additional information.
The workplans and all other open issues in MPEG Surround will be reviewed Friday morning,.

Eunmi Oh
This contribution presented a review of the scalability functionality provided by BSAC and its
various extensions that have been recently standardized or are in the process of standardization.
This includes BSAC stereo and BSAC multichannel, each optionally combined with the SBR tool.
It was the consensus of the Audio Subgroup to add this as an informative section of PDAM 5,
BSAC Extensions.

Proposed Amendment to ALS for 64-bit file format support
Yutaka Kamamoto
Separate issues of metadata (header and trailer) and large audio files sizes.
Bernhard Grill, FhG, noted that Systems already has support for 64-bit addressing.
Could it be generalized for all audio compression systems.
Object Content Information (OCI) coujld be a better place for header and trailer.
It was the consensus of the Audio Subgroup to make this contribution a “Thoughts on large file
sizes”.

This contribution contains the latest version of what is expected. This contains new text on the
RLS-LMS predictors and on mult-channel coding (MCC), plus some clarifications and editorial
changes. Tilman Liebchen proposed one additional change, which is a means to byte-align the
ALS_specific_config() information.
It was the consensus of the Audio Subgroup to make this contribution, plus the additional change to
support byte-alignment, a DCOR to be issued at this meeting.

This contribution contains the first working draft of ASL conformance. Conformance test data is
not yet been defined. There was some discussion on the conformance criterion, specifically that
conformance may be reconstruction of the raw PCM waveform, or that plus reconstruction of an
given file format (e.g. WAV file format).
It was the consensus of the Audio Subgroup to make this contribution a WD on ALS Conformance.

Andreas Schneider
proposed correction to ISO/IEC 14496-3:2005/Amd2
This contribution raised the issue of what happens when an HE-AAC V2 decoder receives a
multichannel base coder signal. The proposal was to restrict the PS tool to apply only to
monophonic bitstreams.
It was the consensus of the Audio Subgroup to incorporate these changes into ISO/IEC 144963:2006/AMD2/DCOR 2, ALS.
4.4.3
Exploration of Scalable Speech and Audio
Schuyler Quackenbush, Audio Research Labs, reviewed m1333. There was much discussion
concerning whether this contribution might represent a consensus position of the group. Several
audio experts felt that scalability should be an important component of the exploration. In general,
there were divergent viewpoints concerning the document. The Chair concluded that it would not be
possible to edit the text to create any document that could represent a consensus view of the Audio
Subgroup, and hence there was no further action on this topic.
4.4.4
Symbolic Music Representation – Giorgio Zoia
After the Ahg meeting on Sunday, further discussion concerned the binarization of XML. Philippe
de Cuetos, Expway, from the Systems group participated to this discussion that was very positive
and led to a final decision on this topic. Textual XML and two different types of binarized data
(including BiM) can be used at the same time, according to the specific requirements of different
application scenarios. The type of format shall be declared in the bitstream header.
A large portion of the Symbolic Music Representation task group has been dedicated to editing the
WD text aiming at promotion to PDAM at this meeting. Pierfrancesco Bellini, Paolo Nesi and
Giorgio Zoia participated to editing. A valuable contribution to discussion on open issues and text
cross-checking came from Neil McKenzie and Hyoung Joong Kim. All the open issues have been
solved and the text prepared for promotion to PDAM. An editing period of 1 month has been
requested in order to proceed with proof-reading, English check, completion of some informative
subclauses, and other small fixes.
Further editing work was done on the Part 11 PDAM 5. Text for Part 11 FPDAM 5 has been
prepared.
Preliminary discussion took place on Conformance for SMR. Some technology and bitstreams will
be recovered from the CfP procedure and test cases. Discussion on Conformance will be the major
topic for discussion after the editing period of PDAM text and during the 77th Meeting in
Klagenfurt.

4.5
Audio closing plenary discussions
The Workplans for MPEG Surround were reviewed. The Chair noted that at the next meeting the
Audio Subgroup expects additional information on the technology brought forward by Nokia,
m13233, as indicated in the workplan N8180, and the potentially more general solution, possibly
exploiting Systems technology, as indicated in the workplan N8182.
The “ct/fhg” technology for converting time domain HRTF to QMF domain filter coefficients is
adopted as normative into study on FCD. This solution insures that the performance of the tested
system is achieved in the marketplace, as the system’s proponents feel that this represents the best
known solution to the problem. The Chair noted that Anisse Taleb, Ericsson, and experts from
France Telecom, did not agree with this position. France Telecom experts believe that the place for
such conversion technology is in the informative part of the specification. The Chair also noted that
additional, alternate, technology could be considered at the next MPEG meeting.
The status of the TP tool will be discussed at the next MPEG meeting.

General issues
General Resolution
In the core experiments and exploration experiments, each participant must have an input
contribution to the next meeting. Otherwise, they will be removed from the participant list of that
experiment at the next meeting.
2.1
3D Graphics Compression FAQ
The first time attendant of 3D Graphics Compression subgroup was asked to review the current
FAQ and give feedback. The documents have been reviewed by Pieter Heremans and Mustafa
Kasap. The document was fine and so there will be no updates to the document at this meeting.
2.2
MPEG Technologies
2.2.1 Presentation
Last meeting resolution
The presentations will be provided by Montreux meeting for AFX, GFX, 3DMC and FBA.
Resolution
The presentations for AFX and FBA are provided in
http://www.gti.ssr.upm.es/~fmb/pub/AFXtutorial/
The other presentations are one the way.

AFX (14496-16) activities
3.1
Specifications updates
The list of modifications for existing specifications handled by 3D Graphics Compression is as
follows.
3.1.1 Solving the skeleton-skin coordinate system non-alignment (M12860 in Bangkok)
Last meeting resolution
The semantic clarification of the SBBone related part of the specification should be added in the
next amendment of 14496-16.
However the current reference software will be updated to reflect the proposal.
Resolution
The reference software has been updated and the semantic clarification has been adopted in 1449616/PDAM2.
3.2
Core experiments
3.2.1 CE1 – Multi-resolution Footprint-based Representation
Last meeting resolution:
The specification and implementation seems to be complete. The only thing left is for other CE
participants to cross verify the results. This is to be done until the next meeting.
171
3.2.1.1 M13315 – More mutiresolution footprint based representation results (CE1)
This contribution demonstrates 3 implementations
 City editor :
 For a building: demonstration of making facets with models or textures, changing roof
parameters (height, angle, etc.), saving as mp4 file
 For city : can swap a building with IFS, can reconstruct procedural facet and procedural
roof, simplify footprint (merge roofs and use facet of the biggest building)
 IM1 Player3D : decoding/visualizing of the building and the city built by the city editor
 MPEG-4 Player from FT : this is optimized for nice visualization, demonstrates MPEG4
compliant player (except for JPEG2000) showing the entire city of Rennes
Resolution
The demos are to be presented in Wednesday general plenary.
The cross verification of the result have been done by the participants and so the tool will be
promoted to PDAM3.
As a result, the CE is closed
3.2.2 CE2 – 3DMC Functionalities
Last meeting resolutions:
The reference software shall be fixed to be in-line with the specification.
Also, other appearance attributes (color and normal) should be checked for such bug in the
reference software.
The examination will be done using the models used for conformance of 3DMC.
Additional test should be performed for efficient texture mapping.
We need to verify with the original 3DMC used in Core 3D Compression Profile and proposed
method using new 3DMC extension.
3.2.2.1 M13188 – Status Report on CE2
This contribution first reports the implementation status of 3DMC extension, which shows some
decoding error in the overall code, but especially in stitching. Also the face order and vertex order
are only partially implemented (per vertex and per face).
Resolution
The work is not complete and should be continued by the next meeting.
This work will stay in the working draft with the fixes proposed by M13210.
If the implementation and cross verification is completed by the next meeting, it will be promoted
to the FPDAM.
3.2.2.2 M13206 – Verification report on Syntax revision for AFX amd. 2
This contribution verifies the compatibility of 3DMC extension and the original 3DMC used in
Core 3D Compression Profile.
It includes very minor changes that do not effect the overall test.
The test was performed by using the encoder of 3DMC extension and the decoder of the original
3DMC in Core 3D Compression Profile.
Resolution
The compatibility has been proven.
172
3.2.2.3 M13210 – Modification of bitstream syntax for 3DMC extension (CE2)
This contribution proposes changes to the 3DMC extension so that future extension can be possible.
It adds the 3DMC_extension_header() in the 3D_Mesh_Object_Header().
It seems that we don’t need “num_of_function”. Instead, we can use the func_indication within the
‘while loop’ and check if it indicates the end_of_header.
The body of the order information should not be in the header. It should be put back to the body of
the bitstream.
Resolution
The implementation and the cross verification should be done by the next meeting.
3.2.3 CE3 - Spatial- and SNR-scalable 3D surface coding
Last meeting resolution:
No contribution. However, the work has been on-going so the CE continues.
3.2.3.1 M13229 – More results on CE3 on spatial- and SNR-scalable 3D surface coding
The contribution is an extension to M12627 with more test results of PLTW and implementation in
the mobile phone. Nearly 30 models have been tested and the average of 72.38% compression gain
has been achieved compared to the existing WSS tool.
However, there are still some open issues, such as view dependent coding and handling of other
attributes.
View dependent transmission of regions is supported and it shows finer granularity than current
WSS. However, view dependent decoding of regions is not yet studied.
Also, there are two types of information (skinning and appearance) that should be treated in a
different way. More work is needed for these issues to have a complete solution. However, the
interest and commitment from the industry within the group is not strong.
Therefore, the proponent of this technology will withdraw this activity until the industry shows
interest in it.
Resolution
So far, we have seen a significant improvement in compression efficiency while also supporting
other functionalities of the existing tool in MPEG. Therefore, we see great possibility of obtaining a
cutting edge technology in compact object representation.
3DGC encourages the related industry to show interest in this tool and participate in its future
development.
3.3
Explorations
3.3.1 E1. 3D Mesh Compression Framework
Last meeting resolution
No contribution. However, the work has been on-going so the EE continues.
Discussion
No contribution for this meeting. The main proponent of this EE has temporarily stopped this
activity.
Resolution
This EE shall be closed.
173
3.3.2 E2. U3D features and performances analysis
Last meeting resolution
The result of the comparison between 3DMC and U3D has been generated and provided as an
output document (N7886).
Perform following additional test until the next meeting
1. Comparison of features in MPEG and U3D.
A. The EE2 participants within 3DGC will complete feature comparison based on the U3D
feature list in M13017. If there are questions in the algorithm level of each feature, the EE2
participants from U3D will provide the necessary information.
2. Static 3D model compression comparison
A. In order to have complete test results, the test results should be updated by removing any
possible loss of quality due to conversion of data or other reasons.
B. The test should be done additionally for attributes. The error measure described in Annex B
of 3DGC CE document (N7884) shall be used and the evaluation program using this
measure will be provided to participants.
C. Comparative complexity study shall be performed.
Animation:
Continue this experiment until the next meeting.
More data set is desired. We need to ask for approval to use some data
The distortion measure, described in Annex C of N7884 shall be used for evaluation.
3.3.2.1 M13189 – Status Report on EE2
This contribution provides the error measure program for 3DMC attributes. This is needed because
in case of 3DMC, it is hard to measure the attributes with MESH program. This software supports
the comparison for per vertex/face/corner.
Since it only compare with the full model, this program can only be used at the highest level of
detail for U3D.
Resolution
The MPEG disclaimer will be added to the source code so that all the participants will be able to
use it.
This program will be provided as an output document and also will be uploaded in the mpeg-3dgc
web site.
3D Graphics Compression group would like to thank Hanyang Univ. for this contribution.
3.3.2.2 M13381 – Additional Results on 3DGC EE2 Comparing U3D and 3DMC
This contribution reports additional results for EE2.
The test procedure has changed (according to the last meeting resolution) and the test has been run
again with more test samples. The results show that the U3D files are in average 2 times larger than
3DMC files.
The reason for this may be the fact that U3D provides continuous level of detail and 3DMC only
provides one level of detail.
However, there is a need for improvement of base mesh compression for U3D.
The 3DMC software failed for some class of models. Some problems are shown at and after 24 bits
per vertex.
According to the contribution M13188, the problem is assumed to be caused by the unstable
“stitching” functionality implementation. This will be reviewed and fixed by the participants of CE2.
Grid size was 32 for MESH tool and this caused the ceiling effect in the model “spicecan”.
174
The encoder complexity was estimated and 3DMC encoder showed big dependencies to the vertex
count whereas U3D only showed very little. However, since the encoding is non-normative issue,
the encoder of the 3DMC reference software has not been optimized. It is recommended that the
encoder be examined its complexity on the level of algorithm, with the help of ISG (implementation
study group). 3DGC and ISG should have a joint meeting at July.
Resolution
The followings are the works to be continued in the EE2 until the next meeting.
- Feature comparison
- Animation performance
- Vertex attribute compression efficiency
- Decode computation complexity
3.3.3 E3. IndexedWedgeSet
Last meeting resolution:
Further exploration is needed to produce more results.
More test data should be collected in the 3DGC data repository.
Per vertex & per face should be used when possible during experiment.
Multiple connected component data shall also be used for the experiment.
Explore 3DMC update to support IWS.
Discussion
No contribution for this meeting. However the work is on-going.
Resolution
Continue the EE
3.4
Reference Software & Conformance
Last meeting resolution:
Fix the bitstreams and finalize the cross-check by next meeting.
Samsung AIT has volunteered to investigate more on the MovieTexture problem.
3.4.1 Reference Software & Conformance cross-check
Conformance bitstreams of Morphing and Textures (14496-16/Amd.1) have been checked by other
parties.
COR 3 of the conformance is also complete.
The MovieTexture problem has been solved and the reference software is complete for the
Morphing and textures.
Resolution
Promote 14496-4/Amd 12 and 14496-5/Amd.9 are promoted to FPDAM level.
3.5
Additional AFX related issues
3.5.1 M13179 - MPEG-4 3D Graphics on mobile phone
This contribution provides the implementation of MPEG-4 player on Nokia 6630 phone. It uses
GPAC, which is the MPEG-4 compatible C program, for BIFS and OpenGL ES for rendering. It
also uses JPEG 2000 for textures, which is not yet supported in MPEG through
objectTypeIndication. The size of the JPEG2000 image used is 128 x 128.
175
This contribution also proposes the minimal BIFS node needed for mobile phone. They are
basically the nodes for representing objects and not necessarily the scene graph.
Test has been conducted on 196 mp4 files, varying from 5 to 10,000 triangles (BIFS buffer size
varies from 510 to 460000 bytes).
It shows significant improvement (compared to the IM1 reference software) in terms of decoding
time and rendering
It proves that MPEG-4 BIFS can be a good candidate for 3D graphics implementation in mobile
phones.
Resolution
Continue the implementation for adding animation decoder and rendering of virtual character.
3.5.2 M13202 – Initial steps towards a Procedural Framework
This contribution raises the issue on the procedural framework to encompass what we already have,
such as procedural textures. This can be extended to the tools to be developed to describe
procedurally the geometry, texture or animation of a 3D model.
The proposed approach consists of two steps
1. Design MPEG-4 generic low level tool for a compact, scalable coding of shape, appearance and
animation of a 3D model
2. Eventually design MPEG-7 description scheme to capture the high-level meta-data that would be
meaningful to a human.
However, 3DGC will only focus on the first step for now.
Two examples of geometry are produced in a procedural way: the ProceduralTree and
ProceduralTerrain.
Also, there were also demonstrations to generate these geometries: olgaTree and olgaEarth.
A concern was raised because this framework is not completely deterministic. It can get very
similar, but an exact model cannot be built.
Another and bigger concern was raised because in order to continue this work, we need to have
dedicated industry support.
Resolution
This technology seems very attractive and useful in the 3DGC standard.
3DGC encourages the related industry to show interest in this tool and participate in its future
development
3.5.3 M13180 - Request for JPEG 2000 elementary stream support in MPEG-4 file format
This contribution requests for a standardized way of using JPEG 2000 in MPEG-4 scene.
3D graphic object include geometry, appearance (including texture) and animation which are
supported in MPEG-4. However, in order to build a unified and standardized framework for on-line
games, scalability functionality is critical. For model scalability, MPEG has WSS, and for texture
scalability, MPEG has VTC.
However, JPEG2000 is more widely used in the market and this contribution proposes to have
JPEG 2000 in the MPEG-4 scene.
According to ISO/IEC 14496-12, annex C, if MPEG-4 systems constructs are desired or acceptable,
then:
a) a new ObjectTypeIndication should be requested and used;
b) the decoderspecificinformation for this codec should be defined as an MPEG-4
descriptor;
c) the access unit format should be defined for this media.
176
Resolution
This proposal is accepted.
Promote the updates of ObjectTypeIndication, decoderSpecificInfo and access unit to a new
amendment of 14496-1
3.5.4 M13369 - Proposal for JPEG 2000 ObjectTypeIndication and corresponding upstream
syntax
VTC in MPEG-4 has similar functionalities with JPEG 2000 but the code has not been maintained
and there are no industrial libraries to be used for real applications. However, JPEG 2000 is widely
adopted in the market. Therefore, the first part of this contribution proposes the same thing as in
M13180, to allow JPEG 2000 support in MPEG-4 Systems.
In addition, this contribution also proposes to extend AFX backchannel for JPEG 2000 related
request
Resolution
For the resolution about the adoption of JPEG 2000 in MPEG-4 systems, please see the resolution
in subclause 3.5.3 (just above the current subclause) or the Systems subgroup report.
With regards to the JPEG 2000 backchannel support, this work will continue by the proponent and
new partner (VUB) to have a generic and sound specification. Also implementation and
independent verification shall be done. If the above goals are achieved, then the JPEG 2000
backchannel will be adopted to the on-going amendment.

4.1.1 M13351 - Updates to MPEG-4 Reference Software for MPEG-J GFX support
This contribution reports the updates to the MPEG-J API, which was extended to support MPEG-J
GFX API.
This is the main part of the MPEG-J GFX and is provided by Sun Microsystems. Other modules
have also been completed by other companies. The MMAPI module together with the CLDC
module was done by HI Corporation and the Java binding to OpenGL ES was provided by Mindego.
These modules will be provided in the reference software as binary format.
Since the participants are trying to produce optimized software, the integration of the modules is
still in progress.
Resolution
Since all of the pieces of the reference software are ready, it will be promoted to PDAM of MPEG4 part 5.
Also, the conformance will also be promoted to PDAM of MPEG-4 part 4.

Last doc was N7032, wd 0.3
Commitments from FhG, Thomson and FTRD
Since audio rendering is not normative, then subjective testing can be used, as well as parameter
printout, in addition to objective testing.
Streams can now be generated with IM1 tools, more streams will be done by next meeting.
Two docs at this meeting: Workplan and WD1.0

Proposal for streams for ENST proposed technology, not XFontStyle or Synthesized Texture.
ENST will generate streams for XFontStyle, but ST is at risk.
There is a need for an update of the MPEG-4 Systems reference software (AMD)
There is a need for a COR on the spec. Action on the contributors to transmit this information to the
Systems chair.
This contribution should become an amendment of conformance: Amd17, goes to PDAM at this
meeting, and there is a need for a Request document

ENST will investigate if there is conformance for Synthesized Texture.
On File Format, a spreadsheet is being constructed to test the coverage and record commitments for
files from ENST, Apple, Nokia, Ericsson. Envivio and FT will be asked. We believe this is
adequate progress and we will check the progress by next meeting, with the assumption that a

Coverage Analysis
Here is information about the coverage of the conformance and reference software activities with
respect to the different project parts. Legend:
- a light green background means everything is progressing nicely or completed,
- OK without link is “done but nothing is publically available yet”,
- OK with hyperlink is “done and follow the link to get it”, and in some cases, there are
multiple links,
- brown cell with N: not done, but MPEG made the choice of not trying to fix the problem,
- red cell with N: not done, needs fixing ASAP,
- gray cell: not relevant,
- light yellow with not yet: not started and probably OK because the technology is in an early
stage.
- light orange means: this cell needs work

Overview
The main work items of the Implementation Studies Subgroup in Montreux are:
1. MPEG-4 Part 9 Reference HW description:
 The conclusion of the last editorial issues for the Second edition of the MPEG-4 “Part 9
Reference Hardware Description” TR providing the integration of the MPEG-4
Optimized Reference software Part 7 and the Reference Hardware Part 9 so as to
constitute a “mixed” software hardware description.
 The start of phase 3 concerning the extension of features and documentation for the
“virtual socket” integrated framework, making possible to put together in a single
application MPEG-4 Part 9 with MPEG-7 Part 7 and AVC (MPEG-4 Part-9) software
and the addition of new HDL modules.
 The review of the new HDL module and associated documentation submitted for
integration in Part 9.
2. The contribution to the Reconfigurable Video Coding (RVC) activity for requirements
definition and for the finalization of the call for proposals.
3. The evaluation of the finite precision IDCT proposals, the review of the results obtained so
far the discussion with requirement sub-group and the definition of new experiments for
defining the required precision needed for avoiding or reducing as much as possible the
effects of the drift between different finite precision DCT/IDCT implementations.
Input contributions to ISG group w.r.t. the above items are summarized according to the following

2.1
The progress in the development of the MPEG-4 “Part 9 Reference Hardware
Description”
196
The ISG activity at the Montreux meeting has mainly been devoted to
 the review of the contributions,
 the missing editorial issues of the second edition of the DAM technical report,
 the progress of the Part-9 TR Third edition including the new proposed extension of features
supported by the “virtual socket” integrated framework.
Contribution M13117 presented the implementation and integration in the Calgary version of the
“Virtual socket” implementation of the virtual memory support. Integration workplan and definition
of the new API that enables the activation of the new features has been approved and a document
describing the new definition of the API and the integration has been provided as output document
N8060.
A new module implementing a user defined strategy for motion estimation has been presented in
contribution M13136. this new module will be included in the third edition of the TR.
A new module implementing VLD+IQ+IDCT integrated in a single IP has need presented in
contribution M13139. This module has been approved for inclusion in the third edition of the TR.
Contribution M13182 reported the conformance testing of the binary motion estimation module
already included in the second edition of the TR. The integration of the conformance part will be
done in the TR if NB comments will require such inclusion.
Part of the meeting has also been devoted to minor editorial corrections and the definition of a new
structure of the SW in the CVS server that will be included as user manual for the TR. All new
editing and new modules have been approved and included in the first version of the third edition of
the TR of Part 9.
The ad-hoc group on the development of MPEG-4 Part 9 (N8062) has been re-established with the
ususal mandate, including a specific mandate for the specification and development of the
demonstration platform and the mandate for continuing the investigating the hardware reference
description for DCT/IDCT as answer to the Call issued by video and JVT.
The ad-hoc schedule includes 3 telephone conferences before next meeting. Phone conferences are
planned on 27th April, 25th May, 15 th June 4 p.m. CET (3 p.m. GMT). Tel: (from US 1-877582-3182, from outside US 1-770-970-4161, participant code 9202060193).
2.2
The contribution to the new activity on Reconfigurable Video Coding (RVC).
A small part of the ISG activity in Montreux has been spent in joint meetings with Requirements
and RVC subgroup (old VCTR subgroup). The main issue was the update of the requirement
document with criteria for the evaluation of proposals. The draft call for proposals has been
finalized with the updates of the requirements and the inclusion of evaluation criteria and further
details for the evaluation process.
A full detailed report is provided in the Requirement and video reports.
2.3
Contributions to the review of the proposals received as answer to the call for
specification for finite precision IDCT
197
An important part of ISG activity has also been devoted to the progress for the specification of a
finite precision DCT/IDCT reference implementation. The review of the results of all proposals
received at Nice and Bangkok meetings, have been integrated with new proposals received at
Montreux. All proposal presents improvement in the performance or reduction of complexity versus
the proposal presented previously and that have been integrated in the unified testbed.
The question that needed to be assessed was how much precision is necessary for such finite
precision IDCT/DCT. Interesting contributions have been presented on drift occurrence. A strong
disagreement on that point has been found between two positions. One position is aiming at
minimizing or even to avoid the occurrence of drift when implementing DCT and IDCT that satisfy
the new specification. The other position is aiming at providing the lowest complexity
implementation of the IDCT/DCT but just respecting the accuracy specified by the old 1180
specification. Unfortunately requirements for these two performance scenarios have not clearly
stated in the call for proposal. A discussion with the Requirement sub-group has concluded that
clear requirements need to be collected for both scenarios. ISG concluded as well that experiments
need to continue to complete the performance results that are achievable by each scenario in terms
of drift reduction and associated accuracy.
A new set of experiments and a revised testbed will be specified by the ad-hoc group activity. The
ad-hoc group will continue the experiments for testing the drift and asses the required precision. A
full report of such activity is reported by the video group report.
