In this paper we employ Structural Similarity Index (SSIM) metric in the rate-distortion optimizations of H.264 strictly I-frame encoder to choose the best prediction mode(s). The SSIM is designed to improve on traditional metrics like PSNR and MSE, which have been proved to be inconsistent with human eye perception. The required modifications are done on the JVT reference software JM92 program. The simulation results show that there is reduction in bit rate by 3% while maintaining almost the same video quality and better encoding time
Newton's method to estimate a vector of optimal scaling factors for output errors in the network. Using this vector, backpropagation is used to modify weights feeding into the hidden units. Linear equations are then solved for the network's output weights.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
