Abstract

Rate control plays a central role in constant bit-rate video coding applications using MPEG-4. This paper considers single-video-object rate control for MPEG-4 and presents a new rate-control algorithm based on the quadratic rate-distortion (R-D) model. The major innovations are a novel constraint for the least-mean-square estimation of the model parameters of the R-D function, a new measure for the encoding complexity, novel quantizer control and an efficient frame skipping strategy. Simulation results show that the MPEG-4 coder, using the proposed algorithm, can achieve a higher PSNR than a coder using the conventional rate-control algorithm.

Rate conversion of MPEG coded video by re-quantization process
ICIP '95: Proceedings of the 1995 International Conference on Image Processing (Vol. 3)-Volume 3 - Volume 3

We propose rate conversion method by re-quantization in which MPEG coded video at high bit rate is converted into the MPEG bitstream at a lower bit rate without decoding to obtain the reconstructed picture. The quantization step required for re-...
An MPEG-4-compatible stereoscopic/multiview video coding scheme

In this paper, we propose an efficient codec for multiview video coding, which is compatible with the MPEG-4 video standard. The main views of the multiview video are encoded using an MPEG-4 encoder and the auxiliary views are encoded by joint disparity ...
MPEG-4 one-pass VBR rate control for digital storage

One-pass, variable bit-rate (VBR) rate control is ideally suited to the requirements of real-time video encoding for the purpose of digital storage. Previous MPEG one-pass VBR rate control algorithms have been based on appropriate selection of ...
