چکیده

The rate-distortion optimization (RDO) method in the H.264/AVC encoder is an informative technology that improves the coding efficiency, but increases the computational complexity. In this letter, a fast Intra mode decision algorithm using DCT (Discrete Cosine Transform) coefficients distribution is proposed to reduce the H.264 encoder complexity. The proposed method reduces the encoder complexity on average 63.44%, while the coding efficiency is slightly decreased compared with the H.264/AVC encoder. key words: fast mode decision, DCT, intra prediction, H.264/AVC

Efficient MPEG-2 to H.264/AVC Transcoding of Intra-Coded Video

This paper presents an efficient transform-domain architecture and corresponding mode decision algorithms for transcoding intra-coded video fromMPEG-2 to H.264/AVC. Low complexity is achieved in several ways. First, our architecture employs direct conversion of the transform coefficients, which eliminates the need for the inverse discrete cosine transform (DCT) and forward H.264/AVC transform. ...

FIMDA: A Fast Intra-frame Mode Decision Algorithm for MPEG-2/H.264 Transcoding

The H.264 video compression standard provides tools for coding improvements of at least 2 dB, in terms of PSNR, and at least 50% in bit rate savings as compared with MPEG-2 video compression standard. It is expected that the H.264/MPEG-4 AVC will take over the digital video market, replacing the use of MPEG-2 in most digital video applications. The complete migration to the new video-coding alg...

H.264 FAST INTRA−PREDICTION MODE DECISION BASED ON FREQUENCY CHARACTERISTIC (WedAmPO4)

In this paper, we propose a mode decision scheme for 4x4 intra−prediction in H.264 encoder to reduce its complexity. We focus on the characteristic of each prediction mode in terms of reducing its power in DCT domain since it is considered that reducing frequency components with higher level power may improve the efficiency of prediction. The proposed method reduces the candidates of prediction...

Fast Mode Decision for Intra-only H.264/AVC Coding

In this paper, we propose an efficient mode decision algorithm for intra-only H.264/AVC video coding. We exploit the correlation between optimal coding mode decisions of temporally adjacent pictures to reduce the computational efficiency of the encoding. Compared to the RD optimized mode decision algorithm in JM10.1, the proposed algorithm can reduce the computational complexity up to 33% with ...

Fast Mode Decision for H.264/AVC Encoder Based on Interblock Correlation

The up-to-date video coding standardH.264/AVC could achieve higher encoding performance compared with previous versions since it employs many tools to increase the coding accuracy, particularly the rate-distortion optimization technique for mode decision. However, an extremely high computational complexity isproduced because all possible combinations of modes are calculated in order to find the...
