Abstract
This paper introduces the MPEG-4 video frame-based bitrate control methodology using two dimensional history pool and a sliding window. Proposed method preferentially clusters the encoded results according to the image characteristics and stores those results into the 2 dimensional history pool. Among the stored results in the pool, the sliding window collects the encoded results whose characteristics are very similar to the image frame to be encoded. Feedback regression is finally carried out bated on the collected results. Therefore proposed method can actively adapt to the rapid varying image characteristics by reducing the occurrences of the extrapolations when determining the quantization steps. Proposed method has better performances than the MPEG-4 frame-based bitrate control algorithm by evaluating with the actually encoded bits per frame, encoded PSNR's, and frame skips.
