In this method, first a two dimensional wavelet transform is applied on each video frame independently to extract the low frequency components for each frame and then the low frequency parts of all frames are coded using H.264/AVC codec. On the other hand, the high frequency parts of the video frames are coded by Run Length Coding algorithm, after applying a threshold to neglect the low value coefficients. Experiments show that our proposed method can achieve better rate-distortion performance at very low bit-rate applications below 16 kbits/s compared to applying H.264/AVC standard directly to all frames. Applications of our proposed video coding technique include video telephony, video-conferencing, transmitting or receiving video over half-rate traffic channels of GSM networks.展开更多

When the frame order t of a video signal is replaced by order 2, the video signal can be looked as a block in 3-D space. After splitting the block into smaller sub-blocks, imitate the method of 2-D wavelet transformation for images, we can transform the sub-blocks with 3-D wavelet. Most of video signal energy is in the decomposed low-frequency sub-bands. These sub-bands affect the visual quality of the video signal most. Quantizing different sub-bands with different precision and then entropy encoding each sub-band, we can eliminate inter- and intra-frame redundancy of the video signal and compress data. Our simulation experiments show that this algorithm can achieve very good result.展开更多

In the proposed scheme, the binary image watermark is divided into blocks and each watermark block is embedded several times in each selected video frame at different locations. The block-based motion estimation algorithm is used to select the video frame blocks having the greatest motion vectors magnitude. The DWT is applied to the selected frame blocks, and then, the watermark block is hidden into these blocks by modifying the coefficients of the Horizontal sub-bands (HL). Adding the watermark at different locations in the same video frame makes the scheme more robust against different types of attacks. The method was tested on different types of videos. The average peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) and the normalized correlation (NC) are used to measure the performance of the proposed method. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm does not affect the visual quality of video frames and the scheme is robust against a variety of attacks.展开更多

Several leaky buckets with different sizes are discussed too. Simulation shows the efficiency of this codec and the effectiveness of the proposed rate control scheme.展开更多

While having an acceptable performance in describing mo- tion between frames, it requires quite a few bits to represent the motion vectors. In certain circum- stances, the use of global motion estimation and compensation would perform equally well or even better than the block matching in terms of motion accuracy, while it results in the coding of global motion model parameters. In this letter, we modify an AVS coder by adding (1) six global motion model parameters to the frame header, and (2) mode selection among INTRA, SKIP, INTER-16×16, INTER-16×8, INTER-8×16, INTER-8×8, and Global Motion Compensation (GMC) modes by La- grange optimal rate-distortion criteria. Simulation results demonstrate that over 0.1dB improvement in PSNR is obtained compared to the AVS coder for an average coded P-frame with the same bit- rate.展开更多

First, this paper presents fast motion compensation methods. The four motion estimation methods examined are fast, three step search, varying diamond, and 2D logarithmic. These methods use less search points than the full spiral scan used in the VC-1 reference software, which allows for faster motion estimation. Second, this paper presents a residual texture based choice of the block size for the Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT). To determine the block size, data is examined after the residual texture has been calculated. This is in contrast to the VC-1 reference software, which uses calculations at the block level to determine the block size. The residual texture of each block is small and uniform, allowing for simplified block choices.展开更多

The process of transformation is based on the empirical wavelet transform (EWT). The encoding process of video data provides secure and less consumption of storage and the reconstruction process consists of the reverse process with the extraction. In this paper, the coding of video is carried out at a very low bit rate with the enhancement of performance by proposing an approach of modified Set Partitioning in Hierarchical Tree (MSPIHT). This method encodes the high frequency frames with the scheduling of wavelet transform for efficient performances of encoding and improves the ability of both the frequency and time. By applying empirical wavelet transform on each video frame, the component of video frequency is extracted and the low frequency frame is encoded by the H.264/AVC standard. The low coefficient values are ignored in applying the threshold and in the reconstruction process, HBLPCE method is used for imaging enhancement. The simulation of the proposed approach analysis shows better performance in reliable process and efficiency when compared to existing.展开更多

Especially, the motion search is required for each of the 4 modes for inter prediction. In order to reduce the computational complexity, we analyze the statistics of results of motion estimation, such as the continuity of best modes of blocks in successive frames and the chance to give up a sub-partition mode （smaller than 16 × 16） after integer-pixel motion estimation, from which we suggest to make mode prediction based on the motion information of the previous frame and skip sub-pixel motion estimation in subpartition mode selectively. According to the experimental result, the proposed algorithm can save 75 % of the computational time with a slight degradation （0.03 dB） on PSNR compared with the pseudocode of fast search motion estimation in JM12.2.展开更多

A key problem in the enhancement is how to search for correspondence between high quality and low quality frames. Previous algorithms usually use block-based motion estimation to search for correspondences. Such an approach can hardly estimate scale and rotation transforms and always in- troduces outliers to the motion estimation results. In this paper, we propose a pixel-based outlier-free motion estimation algorithm to solve this problem. In our algorithm, the motion vector for each pixel is calculated with respect to estimate translation, scale, and rotation transforms. The motion relationships between neighboring pixels are considered via the Markov random field model to improve the motion estimation accuracy. Outliers are detected and avoided by taking both blocking effects and matching percentage in scale- invariant feature transform field into consideration. Experiments are conducted in two scenarios that exhibit spatial scalability and quality scalability, respectively. Experimental results demonstrate that, in comparison with previous algorithms, the proposed algorithm achieves better correspondence and avoids the simultaneous introduction of outliers, especially for videos with scale and rotation transforms.展开更多

文摘Scalable video quality enhancement refers to the process of enhancing low quality frames using high quality ones in scalable video bitstreams with time-varying qualities. A key problem in the enhancement is how to search for correspondence between high quality and low quality frames.

Outliers are detected and avoided by taking both blocking effects and matching percentage in scale- invariant feature transform field into consideration. Experiments are conducted in two scenarios that exhibit spatial scalability and quality scalability, respectively. Experimental results demonstrate that, in comparison with previous algorithms, the proposed algorithm achieves better correspondence and avoids the simultaneous introduction of outliers, especially for videos with scale and rotation transforms.
