Video plasticity: Scalable video coding with inherently consistent motion. This project aims to improve how video coders represent motion, leading to more efficient motion descriptions and fewer distinct motion fields. The project will develop motion inference algorithms that ensure consistent motion descriptions throughout a group of pictures, allowing seamless integration of scalable video coding, motion compensated temporal filtering and motion compensated frame interpolation operations.

This project aims to improve how video coders represent motion, leading to more efficient motion descriptions and fewer distinct motion fields. The project will develop motion inference algorithms that ensure consistent motion descriptions throughout a group of pictures, allowing seamless integration of scalable video coding, motion compensated temporal filtering and motion compensated frame interpolation operations. The project is expected to support an efficient and interactive video browsing experience, largely decoupled from original frame rate and resolution; and deliver practical solutions that can be efficiently implemented on consumer devices.Read moreRead less
