현재 MPEG에서 무료(royalty-free) 비디오 코덱으로 표준화 중인 IVC(Internet Video Coding)에서는 저지연(low-delay) 모드 부호화 구조에서 비참조 P 프레임 부호화 기법을 사용하여 부호화 성능 이득을 얻고 있다. IVC 시험모델 ITM(IVC Test Model) 4.0에 채택되어 있던 기존의 비참조 P 프레임 기법은 움직임 벡터(MV)의 크기를 이용하여 적응적으로 고정된 부호화 구조의 비참조 P 프레임을 적용하였으나 시퀀스에 따라서 오히려 부호화 성능이 크게 떨어지는 단점이 있었다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 기존의 적응적 비참조 P 프레임 부호화 성능을 개선하기 위하여 기존의 고정된 비참조 P 프레임의 구조를 변경하는 기법과 MV와 함께 참조 프레임 대비 비참조 프레임의 발생 비트량 비를 함께 사용하는 적응적 기법을 제시한다. 실험결과 제안된 기법은 시퀀스에 따른 큰 성능 저하 없이 ITM 7.0 대비 6.6% 정도의 비트율 감소를 얻음을 확인하였다.

In the decoding process of interframe wavelet coding, the inverse wavelet transform requires huge computational complexity. However, the decoder may need to be used in various devices such as PDAs, notebooks, PCs or set-top Boxes. Therefore, the decoder's complexity should be adapted to the processor's computational power. A decoder designed in accordance with the processor's computational power would provide optimal services for such devices. So, it is natural that the complexity scalability and the low complexity codec are also listed in the requirements for scalable video coding. In this contribution, we develop a method of controlling and lowering the complexity of the spatial wavelet transform while sustaining almost the same coding efficiency as the conventional spatial wavelet transform. In addition, the proposed method may alleviate the ringing effect for certain video data.

Lifting scheme based integer transforms provides very useful properties on the multimedia coding. An integer transform outputs the integer form when the input has integer value. This doesn't produce quantization errors on coding, so integer transforms are adequate to lossless coding, In this paper, we present an integer DCT algorithm which is able to transform audio signal with longer length. Also the proposed method can be easily implemented recursively even though input is long time. We present the method to overcome the poor approximation which is produced by recursive lifting step. And we have applied the proposed integer DCT to lossless audio coding.

Dual coding technique is one of the popular techniques to reduce the dynamic false contours on PDP. Subfield pattern is a key factor affecting the performance of dual coding technique. In this paper, an optimum subfield selection method based on genetic algorithm is proposed. Two types of string structures are defined to account for all the possible configurations of the dual coding subfield patterns. Genetic operators are proposed for optimization of dual coding subfield pattern. Quantitative measures to describe degrees of dynamic false contours and checkerboard patterns are defined. Experimental results indicate that dual coding subfield pattern that is determined by proposed method reduces dynamic false contours and checkerboard patterns.

We propose a new motion vector skip coding method for better motion compensation-based coding of inter-slices in H.264/AVC. It is to best utilize the spatial correlation between motion vectors of adjacent 4x4 blocks by effective motion vector coding. For this purpose, we introduce a new macroblock type of Predictive (P) slice into those of the H.264/AVC, so that it can lead to reduction in the coding bits required for encoding motion information. Experimental results with several well-known test video sequences verify that better performance of the proposed method is obtained.

Fractal coding is a promising method for image compression, but it has not lived up to its promise as low bit-rate image compression scheme. The existing algorithms for finding self-mapping contractive transforms are computationally expensive and offer a poor rate-quality tradeoff. In this paper, we propose a segment based fractal coding. We classify the range blocks into shade, midrange or edge blocks, and segment edge block along the edge. And we apply midrange coding scheme for each segment. Our experiments show that our method gives better rate-qualty trade of than current fractal block coding methods.

A novel rte control algorithm consisting of two major components, i.e. a variable encoding frame rate method and a hybrid DCT/wavelet I-frame coding scheme, is proposed in this work for low bit rate video coding. Most existing rate control algorithms for low bit rate video focus on bit allocation at the macroblock level under a constant frame rate assumption. The proposed rate control algorithm is able to adjust the encoding frame rate at the expense of tolerable time-delay. Furthermore, an R-D optimized hybrid DCT/wavelet scheme is used for effective I-frame coding. The new rate-control algorithm attempts to achieve a good balance between spatial quality and temporal quality to enhance the overall human perceptual quality at low bit rates. It is demonstrated that the rate control algorithm achieves higher coding efficiency at low bit rates with a low additional computational cost. The variable frame rate method and hybrid I-frame coding scheme are compatible with the bi stream structure of H.263+.

In the decoding process associated with interframe wavelet coding, the inverse wavelet transform requires high computational complexity. However, as video technology starts to pervade all aspects of our lives, decoders are becoming required in various devices such as PDAs, notebooks, PCs, and set-top boxes. Therefore, a decoder's complexity needs to be adapted to the processor's computational power, and consequently a low-complexity codec is also required for scalable video coding. In this paper, we propose a method of controlling and lowering the complexity of the spatial wavelet transform while sustaining the same coding efficiency as that currently afforded. In addition, the proposed method may alleviate the ringing effect for slowly changing image sequences.

벡터변형은 벡터 양자화(VQ)와 부호화를 통합한 새로운 방법이다. 최근까지 부호화에 적용된 코드북 생성은 LBG 알고리즘이었으나 신경회로망을 기반으로 한 자기생성 특성맵(SOFM: Self Organizing Feature Map)의 장점을 이용하면 시스템의 성능을 개선할 수 있다는 점에 착안하였다. 본 논문에서는 SOFM 알고리즘을 적용한 VTC(Vector Transformation coding)코드북 생성과 LBG 알고리즘의 부호화률에 대한 결과를 비교하여 분석하였다. 벡터 양자화의 문제점은 계산의 복잡성과 코드북 생성에 있으므로 본 연구에서는 이 문제의 해결을 위해 신경망 접근법을 제안한다.

In this paper, a new contour coding algorithm is investigated for use in region based image coding. Generally the contour data may be encoded by its chain codes or chain difference codes. But the data compression efficiency is low because of heavy burden for initial absolute coordinates of each chain. To alleviate this problem, the depth first search in graph traversal algorithm, is applied to the chain difference coding method. The proposed coding scheme is shown to be very efficient for contour images obtained by split-merge segmentation. Finally, we can reuce data about 60% in comparison with modified chain difference coding.
