Homogeneous Video Transcoding Functions for High-Efficiency Video Coding
Abstract: High-efficiency video coding (HEVC) is the successor of H.264/AVC and it gives the higher compression ratio and high quality video than H.264. But, HEVC increases the computational complexity of video coding due to its flexible quad tree partitioning structure. Transcoding algorithms are very much required to associate the HEVC standard into real applications. Homogeneous video transcoding is used for conversion between the same video formats. A higher quality video at …

Recall Abilities in Children with Learning Disability as a Function of Modality of Stimulus Presentation
Abstract: Recallrefers to the subsequent re-accessing of events or information from the past, which have been previously encoded and stored in the brain. Recall can be tested practically by exposing the participants to the stimulus and asking them to recall the stimulus either in the same of presentation or in any order. The process of recall is sensitive to many variables. The modality of stimulus presentation is a major variable affecting …
