چکیده
The Lagrange multiplier based rate−distortion optimization has been proved an effective technique in hybrid video codec design. To improve the coding efficiency, an efficient Lagrange multiplier selection method is presented in this paper. As an extension to our previous work, the Laplace distribution based rate model is further refined by taking correlations among successive frames into account, so that the proposed method shows a superior performance over previous algorithms. Compared with the most recent reference software of H.264/AVC, a gain of 0.26dB on average, 1.3dB at maximum, was achieved.

Content Adaptive Lagrange Multiplier Selection for Rate-Distortion Optimization in 3-D Wavelet-Based Scalable Video Coding
Rate-distortion optimization (RDO) plays an essential role in substantially enhancing the coding efficiency. Currently, rate-distortion optimized mode decision is widely used in scalable video coding (SVC). Among all the possible coding modes, it aims to select the one which has the best trade-off between bitrate and compression distortion. Specifically, this tradeoff is tuned through the choic...

متن کاملMultiplier Selection for Rate - Distortion Optimization in SVC
The Lagrange multiplier based rate-distortion optimization (RDO) has been widely employed in single layer video coding. During the development of scalable video coding (SVC) extension of H.264/AVC, it was directly applied in a multi-layer scenario. However, such an application is not very efficient since the correlation between layers is not considered in the Lagrange multiplier selection. To i...
متن کاملEfficient quadtree coding of images and video
The quadtree data structure is commonly used in image coding to decompose an image into separate spatial regions to adaptively identify the type of quantizer used in various regions of an image. The authors describe the theory needed to construct quadtree data structures that optimally allocate rate, given a set of quantizers. A Lagrange multiplier method finds these optimal rate allocations wi...

A rate-distortion model for describing the motion prediction efficiency in interframe wavelet video coding is proposed in this paper. Different from the non-scalable video coding, the scalable wavelet video coding needs to operate under multiple bitrate conditions and it has an open-loop structure. The conventional Lagrangian multiplier, which is widely used to solve the rate-distortion optimiz...
