In this paper, a fast transform method is proposed to convert MPEG-2 8-tap discrete cosine transform (DCT) coefficients to H.264/AVC 4-tap integer transform coefficients directly ...
The scalability extension of H.264/AVC [1] uses a layered approach for providing spatial, temporal, and SNR scalability. Due to this concept, only a restricted set of spatio-tempo...

For improvement of coding efficiency, the H.264 video coding standard uses new coding tools, such as variable block size, quarter-pixel-accuracy motion estimation, multiple refere...
An explicit slice-based mode type selection scheme for use in H.264/AVC has recently been developed, which preserves the coding efficiency of H.264/AVC without requiring any modif...
H.264/AVC is a new international standard for the compression of natural video images, in which a deblocking filter has been adopted to remove blocking artifacts. In this paper, w...
