چکیده
The promising video coding standard, H.264/AVC [1], is developed by the Join Video Team of ITU-T Video Coding Experts Group (VCEG) and ISO/IEC Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG). By utilizing several new techniques, such as advanced intra predictions, variable block size ME, integer transformation, in-loop deblocking filter, H.264/AVC has achieved significant compression gain compared with previous video coding standards. It is now widely applied to many types of visual services, for example Digital Multimedia Broadcasting, Mobile Phone, and High Definition (HD) video delivery. In the near future, holography video and Super-HD video are expected to hit consumer market. These kinds of large sized video contents require higher coding efficiency while keeping the encoder complexity within an acceptable level. Therefore, new techniques are needed to reduce the computational complexity so that various real time video encoder and delivery services for the large sized video contents could be feasible.

ETRI Journal, Volume 29, Number 6, December 2007 ABSTRACT⎯Efficient downscaling in a transcoder is important when the output should be converted to a lower resolution video. In this letter, we suggest an efficient algorithm for transcoding from MPEG-4 SP (with simple profile) to H.264/AVC with spatial downscaling. First, target image blocks are classified into monotonous, complex, and very comp...
