Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, devices, and systems for video compression. The present implementations more specifically relate to video compression techniques that account for spatial-temporal changes in pixel values. In some aspects, an encoder may determine a change importance factor (CIF) for each image tile of a current image to be encoded.

In some implementations, the encoder may determine whether to transmit each of the current image tiles to a receiving device based on the CIF associated with the respective image tile.
