In this paper, we propose a new low complexity video compression method based on detecting blocks containing moving edges using only DCT coefficients. The detection, whilst being very efficient, also allows efficient motion estimation by constraining the search process to moving macro-blocks only. The encoders PSNR is degraded by 2dB compared to H.264/AVC inter for such scenarios, whilst requiring...
Variable block size (VBS) based motion estimation has been adapted in state of the art video coding, such as H.264/AVC, VC-1. However, a low complexity H.264/AVC encoder cannot take advantage of VBS due to its power consumption requirements. In this paper, we present a VBS partition algorithm based on a binary motion edge map without either initial motion estimation or rate-distortion (R-D)optimization...
In professional tennis training matches, the coach needs to be able to view play from the most appropriate angle in order to monitor players' activities. In this paper, we describe and evaluate a system for automatic camera selection from a network of synchronised cameras within a tennis sporting arena. This work combines synchronised video streams from multiple cameras into a single summary video...
H.264/AVC uses variable block size motion estimation (VBS-ME) to improve coding gain. However, its complexity is significant and fixed regardless of the required quality or of the scene characteristics. In this paper, we propose an adaptive complexity algorithm based on using the Walsh Hadamard transform (WHT). VBS automatic partition and skip mode detection algorithms also are proposed. Experimental...
The paper reports a new fast intra prediction algorithms based on separating the transformed coefficients of neighboring blocks. The prediction blocks are obtained from the transformed and quantized neighboring blocks that generate minimum distortion for each DC and AC coefficients. To obtain fast coding with comparable coding efficiency compared to H.264/AVC, we present the full block search prediction...
