Cross-band noise model refinement for transform domain Wyner-Ziv video coding

Distributed Video Coding (DVC) is a new video coding paradigm, which mainly exploits the source statistics at the decoder based on the availability of decoder side information. One approach to DVC is feedback channel based Transform Domain Wyner-Ziv (TDWZ) video coding. The efficiency of current TDWZ video coding trails that of conventional video coding solutions, mainly due to the quality of side information, inaccurate noise modeling and loss in the final coding step. The major goal of this paper is to enhance the accuracy of the noise modeling, which is one of the most important aspects influencing the coding performance of DVC. A TDWZ video decoder with a novel cross-band based adaptive noise model is proposed, and a noise residue refinement scheme is introduced to successively update the estimated noise residue for noise modeling after each bit-plane. Experimental results show that the proposed noise model and noise residue refinement scheme can improve the rate-distortion (RD) performance of TDWZ video coding significantly. The quality of the side information modeling is also evaluated by a measure of the ideal code length.     

网内编码：无线视频传感网中分布式编码速率控制机制

Wyner-Ziv Video Coding (WZVC) is considered as a promising video coding scheme for Wireless Video Sensor Networks (WVSNs) due to its high compression efficiency and error resilience functionalities, as well as its low encoding complexity. To achieve a good Rate-Distortion (R-D) performance, the current WZVC paradigms usually adopt an end-to-end rate control scheme in which the decoder repeatedly requests the additional decoding data from the encoder for decoding Wyner-Ziv frames. Therefore, the waiting time of the additional decoding data is especially long in multihop WVSNs. In this paper, we propose a novel progressive in-network rate control scheme for WZVC. The proposed in-network puncturing-based rate control scheme transfers the partial channel codes puncturing task from the encoder to the relay nodes. Then, the decoder can request the additional decoding data from the relay nodes instead of the encoder, and the total waiting time for decoding Wyner-Ziv frames is reduced consequently. Simulation results validate the proposed rate control scheme.

Distributed video coding based on vector quantization: Application to capsule endoscopy

We present in this paper a new distributed video coding (DVC) architecture for wireless capsule endoscopy. It is based on the state of the art DVC systems, but without using key frames. Instead, it uses an adapted vector quantization (VQ) with a searching complexity that is shifted to the decoder. VQ allows creating a good side information (SI) by exploiting the similarities in human anatomy. Thus, SI is created from a codebook (CB) rather than by motion compensated prediction. This approach decreases largely the complexity of the encoder, which codes only Wyner-Ziv frames, and allows a progressive decoding. The encoder of the proposed DVC generates only a simple hash that is used by the decoder to select the corresponding VQ codeword. The obtained experimental results show that rate-distortion results are better than those of JPEG, and show the possibility of using scalable coding to control the used rate and energy.     

Efficient reconstruction scheme for transform domain Wyner-Ziv video coding

To minimize the errors of the reconstructed values and improve the quality of decoded image,an efficient reconstruction scheme for transform domain Wyner-Ziv (WZ) video coding is proposed.The reconstruction scheme exploits temporal correlation of the coefficient bands,the WZ decoded bits stream and the side information efficiently.When side information is outside the decoded quantization bin,the reconstructed value is derived using expectation of the WZ decoded bit stream and the side information.When side information is within the decoded quantization bin,the reconstructed value is derived using the biased predictor.Simulation results show that the proposed reconstruction scheme gains up to 1.32 dB compared with the commonly used boundary reconstruction scheme at the same bit rates and similar computation cost.
