Video Compression by Three-dimensional Motion-Compensated Subband Coding

Three-dimensional subband coding is an alternative approach to hybrid coding schemes which are used in todays video compression standards. In this work, two possible models for three-dimensional subband coding have been tested. In model I the temporal ltering is performed directly on the input sequence. In model II the temporal ltering is performed along the trajec-tories of the motion. In both models the resulting lowpass and highpass sequences are coded using interframe and intraframe coding. Motion compensation is performed using blockmatch-ing. The coding results are compared to the H263 standard.
