Overview
Multi-Frame Motion-Compensated Prediction for Video Transmission presents a comprehensive description of a new technique in video coding and transmission. The work presented in the book has had a very strong impact on video coding standards and will be of interest to practicing engineers and researchers as well as academics.
The multi-frame technique and the Lagrangian coder control have been adopted by the ITU-T as an integral part of the well known H.263 standard and are were adopted in the ongoing H.26L project of the ITU-T Video Coding Experts Group.
This work will interest researchers and students in the field of video coding and transmission. Moreover, engineers in the field will also be interested since an integral part of the well known H.263 standard is based on the presented material.
Synopsis
This book examines ideas to improve video transmission systems via enhancing the rate-distortion efficiency of the video compression scheme. Early chapters review the current state of the art in video transmission, examine the operational control of the video encoder, and explain the multi-frame concept, with particular emphasis on long- term memory MCP. Later chapters extend the translational motion model in long-term memory MCP to affine motion models, present techniques to reduce the computational complexity associated with motion estimation on multiple frames, and demonstrate the application of long-term memory MCP to the improvement of rate-distortion performance of video transmission systems in the presence of channel errors. The book is of interest to researchers and students in the field of video coding and transmission. Wiegand is affiliated with the Heinrich Hertz Institute. Annotation c.
