Novel Intra-Prediction Framework for H.264 Video Compression using Decision and Prediction Mode

With the increasing usage of multimedia contents and advancement of the communication devices (along with services), there is a heavy demand of an effective multimedia compression protocol. In this regards, H.264 has been proven to be an effective video compression standard; however, its computational complexity associated with out and various other issues has been impediment towards mainstream of research towards compression. Therefore, we present a novel framework that enhances the capability of H.264 compression method by emphasizing on accomplishing the cost effectiveness of computational operation during intra-prediction mode. A simple and novel encoding mechanism has been formulated using H.264/AVC using decision mode of macro block as well as selection of prediction mode exclusively for intra-prediction in H.264/AVC. The study outcome is found to offer a superior signal quality as compared to conventional H.264 encoding
