In previous techniques of bit rate reduction transcoding, reusing the mode of the input MB is widely adopted. However, directly re-using the mode of input MB will cause additional ...
A fast mode decision algorithm for an H.264 encoder is proposed which reduces computation by using a statistical dependency of macroblock rate-distortion (RD) costs. The algorithm...
We propose a new real-time packet scheduling algorithm for streaming scalable H.264. Our algorithm makes use of a packet importance measure, which we define, that takes into cons...
We present a novel scheme for the transmission of H.264/AVC video streams over lossy packet networks. The proposed scheme exploits the error resilient features of H.264/AVC codec ...
