  • METHODS, ENCODERS AND DECODERS FOR CODING OF VIDEO SEQUENCING
    Publication number: 20170302920
    Abstract: Methods, encoders (110) and decoders (120) for encoding frames of a video sequence into an encoded representation of the video sequence are disclosed. The encoder (110) encodes (203) frames into a first set of encoded units, while specifying at least one residual parameter in one or more of the first set of encoded units. The encoder (110) encodes (204) frames into a second set of encoded units, while refraining from specifying the at least one residual parameter. The encoder (110) encodes (203) frames into a first set of encoded units, wherein each frame has a first level of fidelity. The encoder (110) encodes (204) frames into a second set of encoded units, wherein each frame has a second level of fidelity, wherein the second level is less than the first level. The decoder (120) decodes (212, 213), while obtaining a first or a second level of fidelity for each frame.

  • Objective 3D video quality assessment model
    Patent number: 9686526
    Abstract: There is provided a method of determining the quality of a three dimensional (3D) video stream, wherein the 3D video comprises at least one 3D view composition, each 3D view composition defining a plurality of two dimensional (2D) views. The method comprises determining a characteristic of each of a plurality of 2D views. The method further comprises calculating a variation in the characteristic, the variation calculated between the 2D views corresponding to the same 3D view composition. The method further still comprises calculating a quality score for the 3D video sequence, the quality score based upon the calculated variation.
