SSIM-based Error Resilient Video Coding Over Packet-Switched Networks

The visual quality is a critical factor in prediction video coding over packet-switched networks. However, the traditional MSE-based error resilient video coding cannot correlate well with the perceptual characteristics of the human visual system (HVS). This paper proposes a structural similarity (SSIM) based error resilient video coding scheme to improve the visual quality of compressed videos over packet-switched networks. In the proposed scheme, a SSIM-based end-to-end distortion model is developed to estimate the perceptual distortion due to quantization, error concealment, and error propagation. Based on this model, an adaptive mode selection strategy is presented to enhance the communication robustness of compressed videos. Experiments show that the proposed scheme significantly improves the visual quality for H.264/AVC video coding over packet-switched networks.

Rate-Distortion Optimized Motion-Compensated Prediction for Packet Loss Resilient Video Coding

A rate-distortion optimized motion-compensated prediction method for robust video coding is proposed. Contrasting methods from the conventional literature, the proposed approach uses the expected reconstructed distortion after transmission, instead of the displaced frame difference in motion estimation. Initially, the end-to-end reconstructed distortion is estimated through a recursive per-pixel estimation algorithm. Then the total bit rate for motion-compensated encoding is predicted using a suitable rate distortion model. The results are fed into the Lagrangian optimization at the encoder to perform motion estimation. Here, the encoder automatically finds an optimized motion compensated prediction by estimating the best tradeoff between coding efficiency and end-to-end distortion. Finally, rate-distortion optimization is applied again to estimate the macroblock mode. This process uses previously selected optimized motion vectors and their corresponding reference frames. It also considers intraprediction. Extensive computer simulations in lossy channel environments were conducted to assess the performance of the proposed method. Selected results for both single and multiple reference frames settings are described. A comparative evaluation using other conventional techniques from the literature was also conducted. Furthermore, the effects of mismatches between the actual channel packet loss rate and the one assumed at the encoder side have been evaluated and reported in this paper

Motion Compensated Subband Video Coding with Arbitrarily Shaped Region Adaptivity

The performance of Motion Compensated Discrete Cosine Transform (MC‐DCT) video coding is improved by using the region adaptive subband image coding [18]. On the assumption that the video is acquired from the camera on a moving platform and the distance between the camera and the scene is large enough, both the motion of camera and the motion of moving objects in a frame are compensated. For the compensation of camera motion, a feature matching algorithm is employed. Several feature points extracted using a Sobel operator are used to compensate the camera motion of translation, rotation, and zoom. The illumination change between frames is also compensated. Motion compensated frame differences are divided into three regions called stationary background, moving objects, and newly emerging areas each of which is arbitrarily shaped. Different quantizers are used for different regions. Compared to the conventional MC‐DCT video coding using block matching algorithm, our video coding scheme shows about 1.0‐dB improvements on average for the experimental video samples.     

Resource Allocation for Error Resilient Video Coding Over AWGN Using Optimization Approach

The number of slices for error resilient video coding is jointly optimized with 802.11a-like media access control and the physical layers with automatic repeat request and rate compatible punctured convolutional code over additive white gaussian noise channel as well as channel times allocation for time division multiple access. For error resilient video coding, the relation between the number of slices and coding efficiency is analyzed and formulated as a mathematical model. It is applied for the joint optimization problem, and the problem is solved by a convex optimization method such as the primal-dual decomposition method. We compare the performance of a video communication system which uses the optimal number of slices with one that codes a picture as one slice. From numerical examples, end-to-end distortion of utility functions can be significantly reduced with the optimal slices of a picture especially at low signal-to-noise ratio.

Motion Compensated Composite Color Coding

This paper is concerned with motion compensation techniques for predictive coding of the composite (frequency multiplexed) color television signal. Motion estimation algorithms developed in this paper are recursive and are extensions of our previous algorithms developed for baseband luminance signals. We show, by computer simulations, that displacement of objects from frame to frame can be estimated in the composite signal domain without decomposing the composite signal into its original components. However, due to the poorer quality of displacement estimation and the resulting prediction, motion compensation in the composite signal domain is not as efficient as motion compensation in the component domain. Simulations indicate that a motion compensated predictive coder requires, in some cases, up to 25 percent fewer bits than a coder that uses previous field prediction.     

Motion Compensated Component Color Coding

We develop and evaluate motion compensation schemes for predictive coding of the component color television signal. Algorithms are discussed for estimation of motion of each color component (luminance and chrominance) separately as well as in combination. Techniques for switching of the predictors for individual components are proposed and simulated. Simulations show that it is sufficient to estimate parameters of motion based only on the luminance and use them for motion-based prediction and switching the predictors for both the luminance and chrominance. Thus, only one motion estimator and prediction switch is needed for the three components of the color signal. Compression capability of motion compensation is scene dependent, in some video conference type of scenes, bit rate is reduced by as much as 60 percent compared to conditional replenishment coding.

Fast Multi-Hypothesis Motion Compensated Filter for Video Denoising

Multi-Hypothesis motion compensated filter (MHMCF) utilizes a number of hypotheses (temporal predictions) to estimate the current pixel which is corrupted with noise. While showing remarkable denoising results, MHMCF is computationally intensive as full search is employed in the expectation of finding good temporal predictions in the presence of noise. In the frame of MHMCF, a fast denoising algorithm FMHMCF is proposed in this paper. With edge preserved low-pass prefiltering and noise-robust fast multihypothesis search, FMHMCF could find reliable hypotheses while checking very few search locations, so that the denoising process can be dramatically accelerated. Experimental results show that FMHMCF can be 10 to 14 times faster than MHMCF, while achieving the same or even better denoising performance with up to 1.93 dB PSNR (peak-signal-noise-ratio) improvement.
