摘要:
A method, electronic device, computer program product, system and circuit assembly are provided for allocating one or more redundant pictures by taking into consideration the information content of the primary pictures, with which the redundant pictures would be associated. In particular, primary pictures that are determined to be more sensitive to transmission loss or corruption may be allocated one or more redundant pictures, while those that are less sensitive may not be so allocated. By selectively allocating redundant pictures to only those primary pictures that are more sensitive, the method disclosed reduces the amount of overhead associated with redundant pictures and increases the coding efficiency, without sacrificing the integrity of the video data.

摘要:
A system and method for improving both coding efficiency and decoding accuracy in scalable video coding involving discardable lower layer adaptations, where applications can omit transmission of unused data for inter-layer prediction for all layers below an operation point of receivers. Indicator flags are utilized to avoid transmitting syntax elements that must be set to fixed values. In addition, padding algorithms or additional encoding constraints are applied to the encoding process.

Template matching intra prediction based on a given priority is provided. Priority values of all, or a subset of the pixels on a border between a current block and a reconstructed area are calculated. A border pixel with the highest priority is used as the center of a template block. A search for the best matched candidate template is performed in the reconstructed area. Distortion metrics between known pixels in the to-match template and corresponding pixels in candidate templates are calculated and compared. The candidate template with the smallest distortion metric value is chosen as the best match. Corresponding pixels of the best-matched candidate template in the searching area are used as predictors of the unknown pixels in the template centered at the pixel with the highest priority, and the predicted pixels are marked as known. The process is repeated until all pixels in the current block are marked as known.
摘要:
An encoder for use in scalable video coding has a mechanism to perform macroblock mode selection for the enhancement layer pictures. The mechanism includes a distortion estimator for each macroblock that reacts to channel errors such as packet losses or errors in video segments affected by error propagation; a Lagrange multiple selector for selecting a weighting factor according to estimated or signaled channel error rate, and a mode decision module or algorithm to choose the optimal mode based on encoding parameters. The mode decision module is configured to select the coding mode based on a sum of the estimated coding distortion and the estimated coding rate multiplied by the weighting factor.

Techniques are described related to coding of long-term reference pictures for a reference picture set. In some examples, a video coder may code candidate long-term reference pictures in a parameter set. The video coder also code syntax elements that indicate which long-term reference pictures from the candidate long-term reference pictures belong in the reference picture set.

A system and method for identifying when an indicated or predetermined media transcoding process results in a media stream that is compliant with an indicated interoperability point. Various embodiments allow for the encoding, storage, transcoding, and transmission of a media stream, for which a transcoding process is identified and the resulting media stream of the transcoding process is associated with at least one property. The signaling of the property or properties, and an identification of the transcoding process in one embodiment, may be included in the media bitstream, in a file format container containing the media bitstream, or in a transmission or control protocol for transmission or control of the media bitstream.

Techniques are described related to constructing reference picture lists. The reference picture lists may be constructed from reference picture subsets of a reference picture set. In some examples, the techniques may repeatedly list reference pictures identified in the reference picture subsets until the number of entries in the reference picture list is equal to the maximum number of allowable entries in the reference picture list.

The use of a picture delimiter that is contained in a NAL unit type value that is reserved in the current AVC or SVC specification. The present invention provides the scalability information for the H.264/AVC base layer in such a manner that bitstreams remain decodable with H.264/AVC decoders. In addition, the picture delimiter of the present invention may contain many other syntax elements that can help in easier processing of bitstreams compared to the plain H.264/AVC bitstream syntax.
