An improvement of standard encoder has been saturated recently. However, new coding method does not have a compatibility with conventional standard. To solve this problem, new concept coding method that has a semicompatibility with standard may be discussed. On the other hand, cyclic Intra-picture coding is used for access and refreshment. However, I-picture spend large amount of bits. An enhancement of I-picture is desired with keeping its refreshment performance. Further, it's a problem that quality change at the border of GOP because of its independency. To respond these, we propose the coding which is applied an inter-frame processing at the border of GOP. Applied method is the reduction of quantization error using the motion compensated inter-picture processing. In this report, we check the improvement of the efficiency and the compatibility of proposed method. As a result of examination, we recognize that the total gain is maximally 1.2dB in PSNR. Generally, the degradation of performance in standard decoding is smaller than its gain. Also the refreshment performance is tested.

This paper proposes a new EBTC(extended block truncation coding) algorithm extended from the BTC for image compression. The EBTC has a capability to eliminate the defects of BTC, such as the deterioration of resolution or blocky effect,and to make a real-time processing like BTC. It shows better performances than the DPCM and the transform coding. Especially, it is a suitable coding method for the high quality picture transmission. It may be adequate to the system of transmission rate of 30-50 Mbits/sec. The picture quality has been scarecely degraded with a vector quantization to the EBTC output at the bit rate of 1.25 bits/pel. The bit rate of the scalar quantized EBTC method is 2.6-3.7 bits/pel.

In this paper, we introduce a new scanning method for MPEG-4 AVC based Fine Granular Scalable video coding that can significantly improve the subjective picture quality of a decoded scalable video. The proposed scanning method can guarantee the subjectively improved picture qualify of the decoded scalable video by encoding, transmitting and decoding the visually important region most-preferentially. From the simulation results, it has been found that the proposed scanning method can lead the FGS method to achieve significantly improved picture quality, especially on the region of interests.

In a DCT coding, degradations called block artifact and mosquito noise are appeared in reconstructed pictures. They should be reduced in post processing after decoding without superabundant processing. However, an estimation of mosquito noise is rare because of its difficulty. To realize an estimation of mosquito noise level, we extract a block that mosquito noise will be easy to occur. Mosquito noise level is calculated at a selected side of the block. In this processing, only the sides of high probability block are used. Then, a block value is taken by averaging. Finally, the picture value is calculated by averaging of this. Estimation method is evaluated by using the MPEG-4 decoded pictures. Quantization scale of coding and the estimated mosquito noise level are compared. As the results, we recognize the proposed method gives almost reasonable mosquito block and absolute level. Father, adaptive filter is controlled by the estimated mosquito noise level. It is recognized that the high quality of decoded picture is kept and the mosquito noise is reduced effectively at the picture with degradation.

Video streams for mobile video streaming can be encoded to fit the available network bandwidth by controlling three factors: temporal resolution, spatial resolution, and picture quality. The controlling of picture quality by modifying the quantization parameter (QP) is most widely used. In this paper, we demonstrate that reducing the spatial resolution adaptively can be more efficient in terms of picture quality and energy consumption in low bit-rate environment, and present a model to find the optimal spatial resolution for the available bandwidth. Adaptive spatial resolution control scheme is especially effective when the bandwidth between the video server and the mobile device varies considerably with time, and when the mobile device is sensitive to energy consumption. Our scheme can improve the picture quality by approximately O.5dB and reduce energy consumption by more than 50% compared to the conventional video coding in low bit-rate environment.

In general, contrary to the CRTs with impulsive emission, liquid crystal displays have motion artifacts such as blurring. ghost image, decrease of dynamic CR(contrast ratio), and stroboscopic motion due to hold type driving method. In this paper, to improve motion picture quality of LCDs. impulsive driving method of black data insertion was applied to the OCB mode which is well known for its fast LC response time and wide viewing angle properties. Subject evaluation was carried out with CRT, TN, SIPS(Super IPS). and impulsive driving OCB. Moving picture image quality near CRT was obtained in impulsive OCB driving mode

In this paper, we propose a new trnascoding method for improving picture's visual quality when frames are skipped. the proposed method utilizes the relationships of motion vectors between successive frames, and 4 motion vectors a macroblock are considered in transcoding. Since the proposed method does not require any decoding process of encoded bit stream, the computational complexity for estimating motion vectors can be eliminated. Experimental results illustrated that as transcoded frames are getting far from I pictures and as the degree of motions in video sequences are getting higher, the picture quality by using our proposed method shows better performances than existing schemes.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the home literacy environment, mother's literacy belief and parenting efficacy in terms of the interaction which occurs during reading picture books between mothers and preschoolers. Questionnaires from 378 5-year-olds' mothers in Seoul and Kyunggi province were analysed. The findings from the validated structural equation model constructed with these variables were as follows. First, the home literacy environment, the mother's literacy beliefs and the mother's general parenting efficacy affected the quantity, and the quality of interaction whilst reading books with preschoolers. Second, the mother's efficacy in education and communication had a direct impact on the quantity of the interaction during reading books through the mediation of the home literacy environment, and had an indirect effect on the quality of the interaction whilst reading books, respectively. Third, the mother's efficacy in communication directly accounted for the quality of the interaction which occurs whilst reading books with children.
