    摘要: A method encodes an inter-frame of a compressed video, the inter-frame including multiple macroblocks in a predetermined order. Each macroblock has an associated motion vector. For each current macroblock in the predetermined order, a set of near macroblocks are identified. An index is assigned to each near macroblock. A difference between the motion vector of the current macroblock and the motion vector of each near macroblocks is determined. The indices of the near macroblocks are then sorted in order of the differences and appended to the inter-frame.

    摘要: A system and method synthesizes multiview videos. Multiview videos are acquired of a scene with corresponding cameras arranged at a poses such that there is view overlap between any pair of cameras. A synthesized multiview video is generated from the acquired multiview videos for a virtual camera. A reference picture list is maintained for each current frame of each of the multiview videos and the synthesized video. The reference picture list indexes temporal reference pictures and spatial reference pictures of the acquired multiview videos and the synthesized reference pictures of the synthesized multiview video. Then, each current frame of the multiview videos is predicted according to reference pictures indexed by the associated reference picture list during encoding and decoding.

    摘要: A method codes an output bitstream of an input video so the decoded output bitstream has a constant perceived quality. A base layer bitstream having a constant bit-rate is generated from the input video, and an input enhancement layer bitstream is generated from a difference between the input video and the base layer bitstream. Rate and distortion characteristics are extracted from the base layer bitstream and the input enhancement layer bitstream, and an output enhancement layer bitstream having a variable bit-rate is generated from the input enhancement layer bitstream according to the rate and distortion characteristics. The base layer bitstream and the output enhancement layer bitstream, in combination, form an output bitstream having a variable bit-rate and a constant distortion.

    摘要: A method acquires compressed videos. Intra-, or inter-frames of each compressed video are acquired at a fixed sampling rate. Joint analysis is applied concurrently and in parallel to the compressed videos to determine a variable and non-uniform temporal sampling rate for each compressed video so that a combined distortion is minimized and a combined frame rate constraint is satisfied. Each compressed video is then sampled at the associated variable and non-uniform temporal sampling rate to produce output compressed videos having variable temporal resolutions.

    摘要: A method transcodes groups of macroblocks of a partially decoded input bitstream. The groups of macroblocks include intra-mode and inter-mode macroblocks. Each macroblock includes DCT coefficients, and at least one motion vector. The modes of each group of macroblocks are mapped to be identical only if there is an inter-mode block and an intra-mode macroblock in the group. If any of the macroblocks in the group are mapped, then the DCT coefficients and the motion vector for such mapped macroblocks are modified in accordance with the mapping to generate reduced-resolution macroblock for an output compressed bitstream to compensate for drift.

    摘要: A bitstream includes coded pictures, and split-flags for generating a transform tree. The bit stream is a partitioning of coding units (CUs) into Prediction Units (PUs). The transform tree is generated according to the split-flags. Nodes in the transform tree represent transform units (TU) associated with the CUs. The generation splits each TU only if the corresponding split-flag is set. For each PU that includes multiple TUs, the multiple TUs are merged into a larger TU, and the transform tree is modified according to the splitting and merging. Then, data contained in each PU can be decoded using the TUs associated with the PU according to the transform tree.

    摘要: A method conceals errors in an infra-frame of compressed video. The intra-frame is decoded to multiple macroblocks. Each macroblock including pixels arranged in a rectangular array. A lost macroblock is identified during the decoding. Pixels along an outer boundary of the lost macroblock are concealed from nearest candidate pixels along outer boundaries of macroblocks immediately adjacent to the lost macroblock. All other pixels in the lost macroblock are concealed from nearest candidate pixels selected from previously concealed pixels in the lost macroblock.
