Fine granularity scalable video: implications for streaming and a trace-based evaluation methodology
Fine granularity scalability (FGS) is a new development in the area of video coding, which is designed to facilitate video streaming over communication networks. With FGS coding, the video stream can be flexibly truncated at very fine granularity to adapt to the available network resources. In this article, we introduce the communications generalist to the basic properties of FGS video coding to provide background for the design of video streaming mechanisms for FGS video. We then outline a methodology for evaluating streaming mechanisms for FGS encoded video. The methodology relies on traces of the rate-distortion characteristics of FGS encoded video and enables networking researchers and practitioners without access to video codecs and video sequences to develop and evaluate rate distortion optimized streaming mechanisms for FGS encoded video. 相似文献

Video communication with quality of service (QoS) is an important and challenging task. The transmitted video stream must be able to afford the bandwidth variance and unavoidable packet loss in the Internet. In particular, fine-granular-scalability (FGS) video coding has been adopted by the MPEG-4 standard as the core video-compression method for streaming applications. From this inception, the FGS scalability structure was designed to be packet resilient especially under unequal loss protection (ULP). In this paper, we use ULP to protect FGS compressed video, and under the restriction of the network bandwidth, joint source-channel rate-distortion based optimization is performed in bit allocation to minimize the end-to-end distortion. Simulation results demonstrate effectiveness of our approach. 相似文献

FGS编码方法具有细粒度的可扩展能力,能很好地适应网络带宽的动态变化,被认为是一种适合于网络视频传输的编码方案.但现有的MPEG-4 FGS编码标准效率低,限制了其进一步的推广应用.因此,本文面向视频应用中常见的头肩序列图像,实现了一种质量可精细扩展的视频编码方法.该方法采用H.26L对基本层进行编码,采用基于DCT变换的SPIHT方法对原始图像与基本层重建图像之间的残差进行编码得到增强层的码流.然后将复杂背景下的人脸检测与跟踪技术与选择性增强技术结合起来,对人脸区域优先编码.实验结果表明,该方法不仅编码效率高于现有的MPEG-4 FGS标准,码流具有可精细扩展的特性,还可以选择性地提高人脸区域重建图像的主观感受水平. 相似文献

基于H.26L的精细度可伸缩视频编码 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
提出了一种基于H.26L精细度可伸缩(fine granularity scalability)视频编码方案,称为EFGS-H.26L。在该方案中,以MPEG-4的FGS为基础构造了一种新的可伸缩结构(EFGS,enhanced fine granularity scalability),在EFGS结构中,基本层采用H.26L编码,增强层采用类似于JPEG2000的基于上下文的位平面编码。由于H.26L优良的编码性能,使得基本层的编码效率大大提高,为了提高增强层的编码效率,首先把残余图像按子带的顺序重新排列,这样就可以利用子带系数的相关性来实现冗余信息消除。JPEG2000标准中的EBCOT算法已经被证明是非常高效的位平面编码方法,所以对重排后的DCT系数采用一种类似于JPEG2000的基于上下文的位平面编码方法。实验结果证明,在高比特率时,本文提出的精细度可伸缩编码方案编码效率比MPEG-4中的FGS提高3.0dB左右。 相似文献

In addition to coding efficiency, the scalable extension of H.264/AVC provides good functionality for video adaptation in
heterogeneous environments. Fine grain scalability (FGS) is a technique to extract video bitstream at the finest quality level
under the given bandwidth. In this paper, an architecture of FGS encoder with low external memory bandwidth and low hardware
cost is proposed. Up to 99% of bandwidth reduction can be attained by the proposed scan bucket algorithm, early context modeling
with context reduction, and first scan pre-encoding. The area-efficient hardware architecture is implemented by layer-wise
hardware reuse. Besides, three design strategies for enhancement layer coder are explored so that the trade-off between external
memory bandwidth and silicon area is allowed. The proposed hardware architecture can real-time encode HDTV 1920×1080 video
with two FGS enhancement layers at 200 MHz working frequency, or HDTV 1280×720 video with three FGS enhancement layers at
130 MHz working frequency. 相似文献

Fine granularity scalability (FGS), a new coding technique that has recently been added to the MPEG‐4 video coding standard, allows for the flexible scaling of each individual video frame at very fine granularity. This flexibility makes FGS video very well suited for rate‐distortion optimized streaming mechanisms, which minimize the distortion (i.e. maximize the quality) of the streamed video by transmitting the optimal number of bits for each individual frame. The per‐frame optimization of the transmission schedule, however, puts a significant computational burden on video servers and intermediate streaming gateways. In this paper we investigate the rate‐distortion optimized streaming at different video frame aggregation levels. We find that compared to the optimization for each individual video frame, optimization at the level of video scenes reduces the computational effort dramatically, while reducing the video quality only very slightly.

Layered Wyner-Ziv video coding. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Following recent theoretical works on successive Wyner-Ziv coding (WZC), we propose a practical layered Wyner-Ziv video coder using the DCT, nested scalar quantization, and irregular LDPC code based Slepian-Wolf coding (or lossless source coding with side information at the decoder). Our main novelty is to use the base layer of a standard scalable video coder (e.g., MPEG-4/H.26L FGS or H.263+) as the decoder side information and perform layered WZC for quality enhancement. Similar to FGS coding, there is no performance difference between layered and monolithic WZC when the enhancement bitstream is generated in our proposed coder. Using an H.26L coded version as the base layer, experiments indicate that WZC gives slightly worse performance than FGS coding when the channel (for both the base and enhancement layers) is noiseless. However, when the channel is noisy, extensive simulations of video transmission over wireless networks conforming to the CDMA2000 1X standard show that H.26L base layer coding plus Wyner-Ziv enhancement layer coding are more robust against channel errors than H.26L FGS coding. These results demonstrate that layered Wyner-Ziv video coding is a promising new technique for video streaming over wireless networks. 相似文献

A Robust Adaptive Video Encoder (RAVE) based on human visual model is proposed.The encoder combines the best features of Fine Granularity Scalabla (FGS) coding,frame-dropping coding,video redundancy coding,and human visual model.According to packet loss and available bandwidth of the network,the encoder adjust the output bit rate by jointly adapting quantization step-size instructed by human visual model,rate shaping,and periodically inserting key frame.The proposed encoder is implemented based on MPEG-4 encoder and is compared with the case of a conventional FGS algorithm.It is shown that RAVE is a very efficient robust videl encoder that provides improved visual quality for the receiver and consumes equal or less network resource.Results are confirmed by subjective tests and simulation tests. 相似文献

Fine Granularity Scalability (FGS) video coding has been adopted by the MPEG-4 standard for video streaming applications. In this paper, we propose a novel FGS coding scheme, which applied adaptive leaky factors for the enhancement layer prediction to further improve the coding efficiency of FGS. A flexible method that can dynamically determine the leaky factors according to the network conditions is also presented. With the proposed method, a better trade-off between the coding efficiency and drifting reduction can be achieved, and the coding performance is further improved compared with using a fixed leaky factor. Experimental results show that the proposed method can further improve the coding efficiency over a wide range of bitrate and packet loss ratio, and still keep the original characteristics, such as fine granularity, and bandwidth adaptation. 相似文献
