The ITU near term standard for very low bitrate video coding, H.263 (ITU-T SG 15/1 Rapporteurs Group for Very Low Bitrate Visual Telephony, 1995), is described. Both QCIF and a sub-QCIF format (128 × 96) are mandatory picture formats for the decoder; the CIF picture format is optional. The H.263 algorithm consists of a mandatory core algorithm and four negotiable options. With H.263 a significantly better picture quality than with H.261 can be achieved, depending on the content of the video scene and the coding parameters. Also, the cost of the H.263 video codec can be kept low if only the minimum required is implemented. The negotiable options of H.263 increase the complexity of the video codec, but also significantly improve the picture quality. H.263 is part of a set of recommendations for a very low bitrate audio visual terminal that was frozen in January 1995 and is based on existing technology. A long term activity is planned by ITU for the development of a new video coding algorithm (H.263/L) with a considerable better picture quality than H.263. This standard will be developed in joint co-operation with MPEG4. 相似文献

This paper describes a prototype video coding platform meant for the conception and testing of multimedia products such as next-generation videophones. The platform is largely based on ITU-T Recommendation H.263, with a number of additional object-oriented quality enhancement features which make it especially well suited for very low bit-rate coding of “head-and-shoulders” video material typical of real-time multimedia applications, video teleconferencing, and video telephony. These features consist of: (1) segmentation into objects of interest, (2) segmentation-based prefiltering, (3) model-assisted rate control, (4) adaptive vector quantization, and finally (5) segmentation-based postfiltering. In the spirit of Recommendation H.263, these enhancements are modular and can be selectively turned on or off, thereby enabling a wide variety of coding modes 相似文献

MPEG4AVC/ITU—T H.264视频编码标准中所采用的多模式运动估计算法与传统的MPEG4、H.263 高级预测模式相比较而言,编码效率和性能都大大提高。但其诸如模式决策等问题却给运动估计器,特别是硬件运动估计器带来非常大的运算复杂度。本文提出一种H.264运动估计器硬件结构,它采用了新的模式决策算法和快速运动估计算法。仿真结果证明,这两种算法不但能使运动估计器降低其硬件实现成本,而且能减少模式决策和运动估计的时间。 相似文献

The draft international standard ITU-T H.263 is closely related to the well known and widely used ITU-T Recommendation H.261. However, H.263 does provide the same subjective image quality at less than half the bit-rate. In this paper we investigate to what extend single enhancements of H.263 contribute to this performance gain, and consider the trade-off quality vs. complexity. Based on typical test sequences, H.263 with its various modes is compared to H.261 on the basis of rate distortion curves at bit-rates up to 128 kbps. At 64 kbps, the performance gain of H.263 in its default mode compared to H.261 is approximately 2 dB. This improvement is achieved with only little increase of complexity, and is mainly due to more accurate motion compensation with half-pel accuracy. Considering the trade-off quality vs. complexity, the combination of the optional coding-modes Advanced prediction mode and PB-frames mode is a good compromise, resulting in an additional performance gain of 1.5 dB PSNR at 64 kbps. The Syntax-based arithmetic coding mode on the other hand, offers only a very small performance gain (0.1 dB at 64 kbps) for its increased computational complexity. Results from profiling an H.263 software codec are presented in order to support complexity considerations of the optional coding-modes. 相似文献

A single-chip CIF 30-Hz, H261, H263, and H263+ videoencoder/decoder with embedded display controller
Harrand M. Sanches J. Bellon A. Bulone J. Tournier A. Deygas O. Herluison J.-C. Doise D. Berrebi E. 《Solid-State Circuits, IEEE Journal of》1999,34(11):1627-1633
A single-chip video codec with embedded display controller for videotelephony applications is described. It encodes and decodes simultaneously up to 30 CIF pictures per second according to video-conferencing recommendations H261, H263 (all five options), and H263+ (six additional options). The die area is 132 mm2 in a 0.35-μm technology, and the power consumption is 1.4 W. The chip uses a distributed dedicated multiprocessor architecture; where computation-intensive functions are done by dedicated hardware, and where picture quality or standard dependent parts are done in software on dedicated programmable processors. Main architectural choices are discussed, and emphasis is put on hardware/software partitioning and codesign 相似文献

A low bit-rate video coding technique that uses spatio-temporal geometric transforms is presented. Motion compensation based on the bilinear transform is employed to reduce the temporal redundancy of the video. The spatial redundancy of the motion compensated error images is reduced by a combination of fractals and the DCT. It is shown that in the objects boundaries of the motion compensated error image fractals outperforms the DCT, while in the smooth areas the DCT is better than fractals. A hybrid combination of fractals and the DCT gives the best result. The performance of this hybrid codec with geometrically transformed motion compensation is compared against the H.261 standard video codec at 64 kbit/s 相似文献

The high-efficiency video coding(HEVC) standard is the newest video coding standard currently under joint development by ITU-T Video Coding Experts Group(VCEG) and ISO/IEC Moving Picture Experts Group(MPEG).HEVC is the next-generation video coding standard after H.264/AVC.The goals of the HEVC standardization effort are to double the video coding efficiency of existing H.264/AVC while supporting all the recognized potential applications,such as,video telephony,storage,broadcast,streaming,especially for large picture size video(4k × 2k).The HEVC standard will be completed as an ISO/IEC and ITU-T standard in January 2013.In February 2012,the HEVC standardization process reached its committee draft(CD) stage.The ever-improving HEVC standard has demonstrated a significant gain in coding efficiency in rate-distortion efficiency relative to the existing H.264/AVC.This paper provides an overview of the technical features of HEVC close to HEVC CD stage,covering high-level structure,coding units,prediction units,transform units,spatial signal transformation and PCM representation,intra-picture prediction,inter-picture prediction,entropy coding and in-loop filtering.The HEVC coding efficiency performances comparing with H.264/AVC are also provided. 相似文献

The transmission of audio-visual services on low-bit-rate, wireless telecommunications systems requires the use of coding techniques that are both efficient in their use of bits and robust against errors introduced in transmission. In this paper, we present efficient techniques for improving the error resilience of audio-visual services. These techniques are based on coding simultaneously for synchronization and error protection or detection. We apply the techniques to improve the performance of the multiplexing protocol (which combines the video and audio streams so that they can be transmitted on a single circuit), and also to improve the robustness of the coded video. We show through simulations that the techniques are efficient in their use of bits and effective against bursty errors common in wireless channels. For a simulation of the DECT channel at a bit-error rate of 10-3, the techniques give an order of magnitude improvement in the probability of lost packets in the multiplexer layer over more conventional techniques. In the video layer, the techniques give an improvement of between 1-2 dB over ITU-T Recommendation H.263. The techniques proposed for the video layer also have the advantage of permitting simple transcoding with bit streams complying with H.263 相似文献

Predictive rate-distortion (RD) optimized motion estimation techniques are studied and developed for very low bit-rate video coding. Four types of predictors are studied: mean, weighted mean, median, and statistical mean. The weighted mean is obtained using conventional linear prediction techniques. The statistical mean is obtained using a finite-state machine modeling method based on dynamic vector quantization. By employing prediction, the motion vector search can then be constrained to a small area. The effective search area is reduced further by varying its size based on the local statistics of the motion field, through using a Lagrangian as the search matching measure and imposing probabilistic models during the search process. The proposed motion estimation techniques are analyzed within a simple DCT-based video coding framework, where an RD criterion is used for alternating among three coding modes for each 8×8 block: motion only, motion-compensated prediction and DCT, and intra-DCT. Experimental results indicate that our techniques yield very good computation-performance tradeoffs. When such techniques are applied to an RD optimized H.263 framework at very low bit rates, the resulting H.263 compliant video coder is shown to outperform the H.263 TMN5 coder in terms of compression performance and computations simultaneously 相似文献

In this paper, a parametric model is proposed which provides estimation for the perceived quality of video, coded with different
codecs, at any bit rate and display format. The video quality metric used is one of the standardized Full Reference models
in Recommendations ITU-T J.144 and ITU-R BT.1683. The proposed model is based on the video quality estimation described in
Recommendation ITU-T G.1070, but incorporates different enhancements, allowing a much better estimation of the perceptual
MOS values, especially in low bit rate ranges. The error obtained with the proposed model, regarding to the ITU models, is
between the ITU algorithms error margins, according to the subjective tests developed by the VQEG. Studies were made for more
than 1500 processed video clips, coded in MPEG-2 and H.264/AVC, in bit rate ranges from 50 kb/s to 12 Mb/s, in SD, VGA, CIF
and QCIF display formats. 相似文献
