This paper introduces DiceTrack, an innovative Deep Learning (DL) platform for detecting dice in board games. Deploying robust models on microcontrollers (MCUs) presents challenges due to memory and computational constraints. We focus on optimizing MobileNet for seamless ESP32 deployment and propose…
The last standard Versatile Video Codec (VVC) aims to improve the compression efficiency by saving around 50% of bitrate at the same quality compared to its predecessor High Efficiency Video Codec (HEVC). However, this comes with higher encoding complexity mainly due to a much larger number of block…
Versatile Video Coding (VVC) is the next generation video coding standard expected by the end of 2020. Compared to its predecessor, VVC introduces new coding tools to make compression more efficient at the expense of higher computational complexity. This rises a need to design an efficient and optim…
The conversion of an algorithm to fixed-point arithmetic is commonly achieved with a large and fixed-number of simulations. Nevertheless, when simulating a fixed and arbitrary large number of samples, no confidence information is given on the characterization, and this method is often time-inefficie…
The energy efficiency of modern MPSoCs is enhanced by complex hardware features such as Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling (DVFS) and Dynamic Power Management (DPM). This paper introduces a new method, based on convex problem solving, that determines the most energy efficient operating point in t…
Block partition structure is a critical module in video coding scheme to achieve significant gap of compression performance. Under the exploration of future video coding standard by the Joint Video Exploration Team (JVET), named Versatile Video Coding (VVC), a new Quad Tree Binary Tree (QTBT) block…
High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) is one of the latest released video standards and offers up to 40% bitrate savings when compared to the widespread H.264/AVC standard, at the cost of a substantial complexity growth. Constraining the complexity of HEVC encoding is a challenging task for embedded a…
