Rate-Distortion Optimized Quantization (RDOQ) is an encoding optimization technique that may be applied to any transform-based compression technique preserving bitstream compliance with the standard. In the paper, the application of the RDOQ to Motion JPEG is described and evaluated. The proposed solution includes block- level optimization with picture-level Lagrange multiplier estimation. Performed evaluation results in higher compression ratios as compared to typical Motion JPEG.
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.
