Salient object detection can provide the attention information of viewers and has the potential to be employed in many real-time interactive and display systems. In this paper, based on an existing top-down salient object detection algorithm, a real-time salient object detection engine is proposed and implemented. With several memory bandwidth optimization techniques and hardware optimization techniques,...
In this paper, we discuss a region-based perceptual quality-regulable H.264 video encoder system that we developed. The ability to adjust the quality of specific regions of a source video to a predefined level of quality is an essential technique for region-based video applications. We use the structural similarity index as the quality metric for distortion-quantization modeling and develop a bit...
In this paper, a perceptual quality regulable H.264 video encoder system has been developed. We use structure similarity index as the quality metric for distortion-quantization modeling and develop a bit allocation and rate control scheme for enhancing regional perceptual quality. Exploiting the relationship between the reconstructed macroblock and its best predicted macroblock from mode decision,...
In this work, a perceptual quality-regulable H.264 video encoder system has been developed. Exploiting the relationship between the reconstructed macro block and its best predicted macro block from mode decision, a novel quantization parameter prediction method is built and used to regulate the video quality according to a target perceptual quality. An automatic quality refinement scheme is also developed...
In order to increase coding efficiency, a perception-aware H.264/AVC encoder is proposed in this paper. With a different perception models for intra-frames and inter-frames, the initial quantization parameter (QP) is perceptually adjusted to remove perceptual redundancy. Moreover, the associated hardware architectures of the whole encoder and the perception analysis engine are also proposed with hardware...
