Dynamic Configuration: beyond Video Coding Standards
نویسندگان
چکیده
Video coding standards are essential to a wide range of applications, but have certain limitations. New, flexible approaches to video compression have the potential to speed up adoption of new coding techniques, to improve compression performance through adaptive coding and to support multiple coding standards on a single platform. In this paper we describe the MPEG Reconfigurable Video Coding initiative, which enables flexible configuration of coding tools drawn from a standard Video Tool Library. Further, we present an alternative framework, dynamically configurable video compression, in which the coding tools themselves may be created, configured and re-configured adaptively. We present an initial prototype of this framework and discuss performance results and research challenges.

Compressed Domain Scene Change Detection Based on Transform Units Distribution in High Efficiency Video Coding Standard
Scene change detection plays an important role in a number of video applications, including video indexing, searching, browsing, semantic features extraction, and, in general, pre-processing and post-processing operations. Several scene change detection methods have been proposed in different coding standards. Most of them use fixed thresholds for the similarity metrics to determine if there wa...
متن کاملReal-time foveation techniques for low bit rate video coding
Lossy video compression methods often rely on modeling the abilities and limitations of the intended receiver, the Human Visual System (HVS), to achieve the highest possible compression with as little effect on perceived quality as possible. Foveation, which is nonuniform resolution perception of the visual stimulus by the HVS due to the non-uniform density of photoreceptor cells in the eye, ha...
متن کاملFast Intra Mode Decision for Depth Map coding in 3D-HEVC Standard
three dimensional- high efficiency video coding (3D-HEVC) is the expanded version of the latest video compression standard, namely high efficiency video coding (HEVC), which is used to compress 3D videos. 3D videos include texture video and depth map. Since the statistical characteristics of depth maps are different from those of texture videos, new tools have been added to the HEVC standard fo...

In this paper, we make a short foray through coding standards for still images and motion video. We first briefly discuss standards already in use, including: Group 3 and Group 4 for bilevel fax images; JPEG for still color images; and H.261, H.263, MPEG-1, and MPEG-2 for motion video. We then cover newly emerging standards such as JBIG1 and JBIG2 for bilevel fax images, JPEG-2000 for still col...
متن کاملComparison of compression efficiency between HEVC/H.265 and VP9 based on subjective assessments
Current increasing effort of broadcast providers to transmit UHD (Ultra High Definition) content is likely to increase demand for ultra high definition televisions (UHDTVs). To compress UHDTV content, several alternative encoding mechanisms exist. In addition to internationally recognized standards, open access proprietary options, such as VP9 video encoding scheme, have recently appeared and a...
