Hybrid Fractal Video Coding with Neighbourhood Vector Quantisation

A hybrid video coding scheme which combines fractal coding with neighbourhood vector quantisation is reported. While fractal coding exploits the redundancy present in different scales, neighbourhood vector quantisation, as a generalisation of translational motion compensation, is a useful method for removing both intra and inter-frame coherences. The hybrid coder outperforms most of the fractal coders published to date while the algorithm complexity is kept relatively low.
