Introduction of a multi-layer predictive search strategy for scalable video coding
Ronaldo Hüsemann, Valter Roesler · 2014
Conventional scalable solutions based on single-layer motion prediction strategies are not able to explore inter-layer redundancies. Considering that scenario, this paper introduces ESIPS, an efficient Inter-Layer Prediction (ILP) algorithm based on a multilayer predictive search strategy, which was specially designed to increase overall performance of scalable encoders. Comparative results indicate that the proposed method reaches a performance increase of around five times in relation to traditional motion prediction algorithms.
