چکیده

The main task of HTTP Adaptive Streaming is to adapt video quality dynamically under variable network conditions. This is a key feature for multimedia delivery especially when quality of service cannot be granted network-wide and, e.g., throughput may suffer short term fluctuations. Hence, robust bitrate adaptation schemes become crucial in order to improve video quality. The objective, in this context, is to control the filling level of the playback buffer and maximize the quality of the video, while avoiding unnecessary video quality variations. In this paper we study bitrate adaptation algorithms based on Backward-Shifted Coding (BSC), a scalable video coding scheme able to greatly improve video quality. We design bitrate adaptation algorithms that balance video rate smoothness and high network capacity utilization, leveraging both on throughputbased and buffer-based adaptation mechanisms. Extensive simulations using synthetic and real-world video traffic traces show that the proposed scheme performs remarkably well even under challenging network conditions.

Low-Band-Shifted Hierarchical Backward Motion Estimation, Compensation for Wavelet-Based Video Coding

A new framework for block-based backward motion compensation in wavelet scalable video coding scheme is proposed. Motion estimation and compensation are hierarchically conducted in wavelet domain using coarser level lowpass subband in the current frame and synthesized next finer level lowpass subband in the reference frame, hence, the motion information does not need to be transmitted. To allev...

Generic, scalable and efficient shape coding for visual texture objects in MPEG-4

This paper presents a generic, scalable, efficient shape coding scheme for scalable object-oriented visual texture. The base-layer coding scheme used is similar to the binary CAE coding scheme adopted in MPEG-4 video. The proposed scheme introduces a new set of generic contexts to efficiently encode (predict) enhanced shape layer based on the lower spatial layer using a context-based arithmetic...

A Distributed-source-coding Based Robust Spatio-temporal Scalable Video Codec

A video coding paradigm called PRISM (Power-efficient, Robust, hIgh compression, Syndrome-based Multimedia coding) built on distributed source coding principles has been recently proposed in [1]. In this paper, we study a scalable version of PRISM which addresses both spatial and temporal scalability. The proposed codec inherits the main attributes of the PRISM architecture, namely increased ro...
