Abstract
The state-of-the-art H.264/AVC standard was designed for the lossy video coding so that it could not yield the best performance for lossless video coding. In this paper, we propose two efficient intra lossless coding methods by embedding a pixel-wise prediction into the H.264/AVC. One is based on the pixel-wise prediction for the residual signal of the H.264/AVC intra Prediction and the other suggests a newly additional intra prediction mode for the conventional intra prediction. We found that the proposed lossless coding algorithms could achieve approximately $12%{\sim}25%$ more bit saving compared to the H.264/AVC FRExt high profile for several test sequences in terms of a compression ratio.
