In conventional video coding, the complexity of an encoder is generally much higher than that of a decoder because of operations such as motion estimation consume significant com...
Sprite coding is a very efficient method for the representation and compression of background video object, which has been accepted by MPEG-4 standard. However, how to automatical...
Rate-Distortion optimization can significantly improve encoder performance in MPEG-like video coding applications especially when it is applied to coding mode selection and motion...
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...
Wyner-Ziv coding enables low complexity video encoding with the motion estimation procedure shifted to the decoder. However, the accuracy of decoder motion estimation is often low...
