A finer granular scalable (FGS) version of ISO/IEC MPEG-4 video streaming is investigated in this work with the prioritized stream delivery over loss-rate differentiated networks. Our proposed system is focused on the seamless integration of rate adaptation, prioritized packetization, and simplified differentiation for the MPEG-4 FGS video streaming. The proposed system consists of three key components: 1) rate adaptation with scalable source encoding, 2) content-aware prioritized packetization, and 3) loss-based differential forwarding. More specifically, a constant-quality rate adaptation is first achieved by optimally truncating the over-coded FGS stream based on the embedding rate-distortion (R-D) information (obtained from a piecewise linear R-D model). The rate-controlled video stream is then packetized and prioritized according to the loss impact of each packet. Prioritized packets are transmitted over the underlying network, where packets are subject to differentiated dropping and forwarding. By focusing on the end-to-end quality, we establish an effective working conditions for the proposed video streaming and the superior performance is verified by simulated MPEG-4 FGS video streaming.

Motion compensation is a powerful method to compress an image sequence. Its main drawback is that once an error is occurred, the error propagates through the frames. Recently, the intra update method was proposed to stop the error propagation at the expense of reduction in compression efficiency. This paper proposes an intra update method based on a rate-distortion optimization in error prone environments. The rate and the distortion are estimated using the Lagrangian optimization to select the coding mode and the quantization step size. The proposed method is applied to MPEG-4 codec, and the experimental results show that it is robust to the error such as packet losses comparing with the conventional ones.

VP8, an open web media video format, has recently attractedmuch attention, particularly from major web browser companies, as a video codec for HTML5 on internet due to its good coding efficiency and royalty-free policy. Compared to other video compression schemes such as H.264/AVC, it has several distinctive coding tools that help to ensure good coding efficiency and low decoding complexity. In this paper, we investigate its coding techniques and analyze its rate-distortion (R-D) coding performance as compared to that of H.264/AVC.

In this paper, we propose a hybrid Wyner-Ziv video coding structure that combines conventional motion predictive video coding and Wyner-Ziv video coding to eliminate the feedback channel, which is a major practical problem in applications using the Wyner-Ziv video coding approach. The proposed method divides a hybrid frame into two regions. One is coded by a motion predictive video coder, and the other by the Wyner-Ziv coding method. The proposed encoder estimates side information with low computational complexity, using the coding information of the motion predictive coded region, and estimates the number of syndrome bits required to decode the region. The decoder generates side information using the same method as the encoder, which also reduces the computational complexity in the decoder. Experimental results show that the proposed method can eliminate the feedback channel without incurring a significant rate-distortion performance loss.

Used as an ingredient in the hospital for orthopedic prosthetic stainless and titanium metal the same size as on the MRI diagnostic value of imaging were compared. Center of images, background high band portion of the video signal is converted into a weighted intensity values Normal images and compared. The area of normal slice and also the distortion of images and cross-sectional imaging of a range of quantitative and sagittal planes were compared. As a result, the periphery high band signal intensity values of Stainless video phantom 2, pig bone 1.8, Titanium imaging of phantom 1.7 has higher value than Normal video pig bone 1.3 times the signal strength rivers. MRI distortion of the shape and the distortions of the range, if the cross-sectional area compared to Normal Slice Stainless case of phantom 65.8 %, pig bone 61.5 %, Titanium distortion phantom 23.1 %, pig bone 38.5 % of the range of community found. In this experiment, as a result, MRI was found to be Titanium more diagnostic value than the specimen with respect to the signal intensity weighted value and low distortion range, Stainless.

분산 비디오 부호화(Distributed Video Coding: DVC)는 복호화보다 훨씬 적은 계산량으로 부호화를 가능하게 함으로써 계산 성능 및 전력이 제한된 환경을 위한 비디오 부호화 기법으로 주목 받고 있다. 그러나 DVC의 부호화 성능은 아직 기존의 비디오 압축 표준에 많이 미치지 못하고 있으며 이를 극복하기 위한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 DVC의 부호화 성능 개선을 위한 율-왜곡 기반의 영역별 선택적 부호화 기법을 제안한다. 제안 기법은 복호기 측에서 보조정보를 얻는 과정에서 얻어지는 움직임 벡터가 부호기 측으로 피드백된다는 가정하에 이를 이용하여 움직임 보상 예측 신호를 구하고 율-왜곡(Rate-Distortion) 기반의 블록 단위로 선택적 부호화를 수행한다. 모의실험을 통하여 본 논문에서 제안한 움직임 정보 피드백을 이용한 율-왜곡 기반의 선택적 블록 부호화 기법이 기존의 DVC 부호화 기법보다 시퀀스에 따라 최대 약 2.25 dB 개선된 성능을 가짐을 보인다.

This paper presents a Channel DiVision (CDV) scheme for transform-domain distributed video coding. In the proposed system, we employ the symmetric motion estimation to generate high quality side information for Wyner-Ziv (WZ) frames. Also, the decoder estimates the distortion of the side information, which is used to classify the transmitting channels for WZ frames. Each channel has a different expected noise. Then, the encoder allocates an appropriate number noise. Then, the encoder allocates an appropriate number present rate-distortion performance results and comparisons with existing state-of-the-art algorithms and H.264.

In this paper, we propose the novel methodology to improve the rate-distortion characteristics by the difference of the quantized DCT coefficients using two different quantized parameters in HEVC. Under the special condition of the quantization property in HEVC, we evaluate the binary difference of the quantized DCT coefficients derived from two different quantized parameters and compressed it with simple CABAC algorithm based on the characteristics of the binary difference. The experimental result shows that the proposed algorithm improves the compression performance of the rate-distortion property in comparison to the conventional HEVC compression method.

The partial distortion elimination (PDE) scheme is used to decrease the sum of absolute difference (SAD) computational complexity, since the SAD calculation has been taken much potion of the video compression. In motion estimation (ME) based on PDE, it is ideal that the initial value of SAD in summing performance has large value. The traditional scan order methods have many operation time and high operational complexity because these adopted the division or multiplication. In this paper, we introduce the new scan order and search order by using only adder. We define the average value which is called to rough average value (RAVR). Which is to reduce the computational complexity and increase the operational speed and then we can obtain the improvement of SAD performance. And also this RAVR is used to decide the search order sequence, since the difference RAVR between the current block and candidate block is small then this candidate block has high probability to suitable candidate. Thus, our proposed algorithm combines above two main concepts and suffers the improving SAD performance and the easy hardware implementation methods.

The H.264/AVC video coding standard shows superior coding efficiency by adopting many new techniques. However, the encoding complexity increases greatly to achieve higher coding efficiency. Especially, the rate distortion optimization technique, which is used to decide the intra-prediction mode, increases the encoding complexity. In this paper, we propose an efficient intra-prediction mode decision method. By using the variance of pixel values and the edge direction, the computational complexity of the intra-prediction mode decision is greatly reduced.
