Complexity-quality analysis of transcoding architectures for reduced spatial resolution
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a detailed complexity-quality analysis of various transcoding architectures that perform spatial resolution reduction. In addition to the Reference architecture, two additional architectures are considered. The optimization of several processing components, including the down-sampling operation, is presented. We have found that the two additional architectures provide a good trade-off in terms of complexity and quality compared to the Reference.

Drift compensation for reduced spatial resolution transcoding
This paper discusses the problem of reduced-resolution transcoding of compressed video bitstreams. An analysis of drift errors is provided to identify the sources of quality degradation when transcoding to a lower spatial resolution. Two types of drift error are considered: a reference picture error, which has been identified in previous works, and error due to the noncommutative property of mo...
متن کاملTranscoder architectures for video coding
Two different models for transcoding of H.263-based video streams are examined: rate reduction and resolution reduction. Results show that the computational complexity of the basic transcoding model can be reduced for each model by an average of 39% and 23% with less than 1 dB loss in quality for sequences with high motion. Comparisons with scalable video coding model are also presented.
متن کاملRequantization transcoding for H.264/AVC video coding
In this paper, efficient solutions for requantization transcoding in H.264/AVC are presented. By requantizing residual coefficients in the bitstream, different error components can appear in the transcoded video stream. Firstly, a requantization error is present due to successive quantization in encoder and transcoder. In addition to the requantization error, the loss of information caused by c...
متن کاملA Novel Motion Vector Refinement Algorithm for Spatial Resolution Reduction Transcoding
For the low bit-rate video communications, video contents have to be transcoded according to network bandwidth and the performance of clients. The heterogeneous low bit-rate transcoding, however, suffers from quality degradation caused by the drift error. In this paper, we propose a novel motion estimation refinement algorithm to compensate drift errors. Simulation results show that the propose...
