In a video coder, the optimal coding mode decision for each coding block could be achieved by exhaustively calculating the Lagrange cost (which includes the coding distortion plus...
Rate-distortion (RD) optimized intra-prediction mode selection can lead to significant improvement in coding efficiency in intraframe encoding. However, it would incur considerabl...
We address the problem of real-time mode decisions for enhancement layer coding in the context of fine granularity scalable coding. While traditional mode selection strategies tak...
Lagrangian minimization is one of the most powerful tools for Rate-Distortion optimal coding mode selection. However, in the latest video compression standard H.264/AVC, the total...
This paper describes novel transcoding techniques aimed for low-complexity MPEG-2 to H.264/AVC transcoding. An important application for this type of conversion is efficient stor...
