    摘要: There is provided a video encoder and a method in a video encoder. The method comprises receiving a frame to be encoded and dividing the current frame into blocks of pixels. For each block, a spatial variability is calculated and a cost function used to evaluate a cost for inter-coding the block of pixels is set to be dependent on the spatial variability. In particular, a ratio of a weight associated with a cost of encoding a motion vector and a weight associated with a sum of differences value is set to be lower if the spatial variability of the block of pixels in the current frame is below a first threshold compared to if the spatial variability is equal to or above the first threshold, The block is then matched with a plurality of blocks in a reference frame, and a cost for inter-coding the block with reference to each of the plurality of blocks in a reference frame is evaluated according to the cost function. The block of pixels of the current frame is then encoded. In case the block of pixels of the current frame is encoded as an inter-coded block, it is encoded with reference to a block of pixels in the reference frame having a lowest evaluated cost.

    摘要: This disclosure relates generally to distributed video coding. In one embodiment, distributed video encoding apparatus to achieve improved rate distortion performance is disclosed. The distributed video encoding apparatus comprises a processor and a memory communicatively coupled to the processor. The memory stores processor instructions, which, on execution, causes the processor to receive at least one Group of Pictures (GOP) comprising at least one key frame and at least one Wyner-Ziv (WZ) frame. The processor further determines a first value that is indicative of a cumulative motion activity associated with the at least one GOP. The processor further classifies the at least one GOP into one of one or more high-motion WZ frames and one or more low-motion WZ frames based on the determined first value. The processor encodes the high-motion WZ frames using inter no-motion encoding. The processor further encodes the one or more low-motion WZ frames using Wyner-Ziv encoding.
