Multi-loop Scalable MPEG-2 Video Coders
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, a structure of a hybrid highly scalable video encoder with fine granularity scalability in a scheme based on a modified version of the classic MPEG-2 scalable encoder is proposed. The assumption is that high level of compatibility with the MPEG video coding standards would be ensured. In particular, it is assumed that the low-resolution base layer bitstream is fully compatible with the MPEG-2 standard. The proposed scalable coder exhibits good satisfactory coding performance. These results are much better than those usually obtained for standard scalable profiles of MPEG-2.

Fine granularity in multi-loop hybrid coders with multi-layer scalability
The paper describes a generic multi-loop coder structure suitable for mixed spatial and temporal scalability combined with fine granular SNR scalability. The structure is suitable for various variants of hybrid video coders like MPEG-2, H.263 and H.26L. The idea of mixed spatial and temporal scalability i.e. spatiotemporal scalability is substantial for the proposal. Its application allows impr...
متن کاملScalable MPEG video coding with improved B-frame prediction
Recently, there is a great interest in video codecs that implement the functionality of spatial scalability. Unfortunately, those MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 coders which exhibit such a functionality produce much more bits than corresponding single layer coders. This bitrate overhead can be reduced by application of spatio-temporal scalability as proposed by the authors. The base layer bitstream correspo...

The paper deals with an efficient coder structure being appropriate for scalable coding of video. The coder consists of two motion-compensated hybrid coders with independent motion estimation and compensation. The structure implements spatial scalability or mixed spatial and temporal scalability that can be combined with fine granular SNR scalability. The encoder exhibits extended capabilities ...
متن کاملScalable multi-resolution video coding using a combined subband-DCT approach
A combined subband-DCT approach for scalable multi-resolution video coding is presented. Therefore, each image is decomposed into 4 subbands by analysis filtering, whereat the low frequency subband represents the base layer, and together with the high frequency subbands the enhancement layer is reconstructed by synthesis filtering. The low frequency subband and the three high frequency subbands...
متن کاملAll-phase motion compensated prediction in the wavelet domain for high performance video coding
This paper presents a novel framework of motion compensated pre&ction(MCP) techniques in the wavelet domain for high performance video coding. Our analysis reveals fundamental limitations with previous ad-hoc wavelet-based video coders from motion accuracy point of view. We demonstrate that the phase associated with any wavelet transform carries critical information of the motion accuracy and p...
