A Bayesian approach to error concealment in encoded video streams
Paul Salama, Ness B. Shroff, Edward J. Delp · 2002
In ATM networks cell loss causes data to be dropped in the channel. When digital video is transmitted over these networks one must be able to reconstruct the missing data so that the impact of these errors is minimized. In this paper we describe a Bayesian approach to conceal these errors. Assuming that the digital video has been encoded using the MPEG1 or MPEG2 compression scheme, each frame is modeled as a Markov random field. A maximum a posteriori estimate of the missing macroblocks and motion vectors is described based on the model.
