Efficient frame-compatible stereoscopic video coding using HEVC screen content coding
Jarosław Samelak, Jakub Stankowski, Marek Domański · 2017
The paper presents application of the emerging HEVC Screen Content Coding for frame-compatible compression of stereoscopic video. Such a solution may be an alternative to the Multiview HEVC, which is the state-of-the-art dedicated technique for multiview video compression. The paper provides an extensive description of main differences between both compression techniques. Authors also present adaptation of the Screen Content Coding to compress stereoscopic video as fast and efficiently as possible. The paper reports experimental results of the comparison between HEVC Screen Content Coding and Main profiles for frame-compatible compression of stereoscopic video. The advantages and disadvantages of the proposed technique are enumerated in the conclusions.
