Abstract--The H.264 standard achieves much higher coding efficiency than the MPEG-2 standard, due to its improved inter-and intra-prediction modes at the expense of higher computat...
Transcoding is an important technique for reducing the bit rate or spatial resolution to meet the constrained transmission bandwidths and terminal capabilities. In this paper, we p...
Long-term memory prediction extends motion compensation from the previous frame to several past frames with the result of increased coding efficiency. In this paper we demonstrate...

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 ...
In many modern video encoders, motion estimation is usually formulated as a Lagrangian cost function that balances motion prediction accuracy and the rate to transmit motion vecto...
