HEVC backward compatible scalability: A low encoding complexity distributed video coding based approach

作者:

Highlights:

• Proposes a novel HEVC backward compatible scalable extension solution, named DSVC, which exploits the distributed video coding principle at the enhancement layers (ELs).

• Proposes several advanced coding tools which are integrated in a quality scalable DSVC framework, notably a novel side information creation process, a correlation modeling solution and a novel EL coding mode selection method.

• Illustrates the advancements of DSVC framework in respect to the relevant alternative simulcast and scalable coding solutions while offering a lower encoding complexity.
