There has been significant interest in developing a scalable version of the High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) standard. As expected, the HEVC scalable video version increases the complexity of the codec compared to the non-scalable counterpart. In this paper, we propose an adaptive early-termination interlayer motion prediction mode search that significantly reduces HEVC/SVC's coding complexity by up to 85.77%, while maintaining the overall bitrate.
