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 proposes a partial prediction approach for fast mode decision in H.264/AVC 4x4 intra-prediction, exploiting the inherent symmetry existing in the spatial prediction mod...
The H.264 encoder has input parameters that determine the bit rate and distortion of the compressed video and the encoding complexity. A set of encoder parameters is referred to a...
Coding of video sequences using hierarchical B pictures in the Joint Scalable Video Model (JSVM) for the scalability amendment of H.264/AVC has the benefit of improved rate distor...

Sprite-based video coding offers higher compression efficiency than conventional block-based hybrid video coders. In sprite coding a sequence is divided into a model of its backgr...
