Abstract:Rate-distortion optimized quantization (RDOQ) is an important technique in the video coding standard, which effectively improves encoding efficiency. However, the large compute complexity and the strong data dependency in the RDOQ calculation process limit the real-time encoding in hardware design. In this paper, a fast RDOQ algorithm is proposed, which includes the RDOQ skip algorithm and the optimized rate estimation algorithm. Firstly, by detecting the Pseudo all-zero block (PZB) in advance, some unnecessar… Show more
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.
