Disparity Vector Derivation Method for Texture-Video-First-Coding Modes of 3D Video Coding Standards

Progressive texture video coding

In this paper, we present a novel video coding approach which provides the functionality of fine granular bitstream scalability. The proposed progressive texture video coding scheme (PTVC) consists of two parts, the current ITU-T H.26L test model for coding macroblock mode and motion information only and a new technique for progressively coding all intra and inter texture information thus provi...

Decoder-side motion vector derivation for hybrid video coding

Vector restoration for video coding

We present a novel concept, vector restoration, for motion compensated predictive coding of video. Conventional predictive coders generate predictions of the input signal and encode the residual signal. Here, the predicted images are operated upon directly with the goal of restoring the original images at the decoder. The predicted images are processed in a piecewise manner using restoration fu...

ITU-T Video Coding Standards

Standards define a common language that different parties can use, so that they can communicate with one another. Standards are thus, a prerequisite to effective communication. Video coding standards define the bitstream syntax, the language that the encoder and the decoder use to communicate. Besides defining the bitstream syntax, video coding standards are also required to be efficient, in th...

MPEG Digital Video Coding Standards

Modern image and video compression techniques today offer the possibility to store or transmit the vast amount of data necessary to represent digital images and video in an efficient and robust way. New audio visual applications in the field of communication, multimedia and broadcasting became possible based on digital video coding technology. As manifold as applications for image coding are to...
