This paper proposes a simple yet effective mechanism to select proper reference frames for H.264 motion estimation. Unlike traditional video codecs, H.264 permits more than one ref...
We present a family of new macroblock partitions for H.264/AVC inter prediction. These modes allow a macroblock to be bipartitioned along a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal edge ...

Compared with previous video coding standards, H.264/AVC employs a division-free quantization scheme. The relation between quantization parameter and quantization step changes from...
A complexity-constrained inter-mode decision algorithm for H.264/AVC video coding is developed using a rate-distortioncomplexity (RDC) optimization framework in this work. The pro...
A methodology for complexity scalable video encoding and complexity control within the framework of the H.264/AVC video encoder is presented. To yield good rate-distortion perform...
