In this paper, a one-pass multi-layer rate-distortion optimization algorithm is proposed for quality scalable video coding. To improve the overall coding efficiency, the MB mode ...
In motion-compensated wavelet based video coders (MCWT), it is known that a precise motion estimation is necessary to minimize the wavelet coefficients energy. However, a motion v...
We address in this paper the problem of optimal coding in the framework of region-based video coding systems, with a special stress on content-based functionalities. We present a ...
The design of a class of wavelet filters and its application in Scalable Video Coding (SVC) is discussed in detail in this paper. The design method uses maximal flat wavelet filte...
