Banding vs. Quality: Perceptual Impact and Objective Assessment

Lukáš Krasula, Zhi Li, Christos G. Bampis +3

Staircase-like contours introduced to a video by quantization in flat areas, commonly known as banding, have been a long-standing problem in both video processing and quality asses…

Perceptually-inspired super-resolution of compressed videos

Di Ma, Mariana Afonso, Fan Zhang +1

Spatial resolution adaptation is a technique which has often been employed in video compression to enhance coding efficiency. This approach encodes a lower resolution version of th…

VMAF-based Bitrate Ladder Estimation for Adaptive Streaming

Angeliki V. Katsenou, Fan Zhang, Kyle Swanson +3

In HTTP Adaptive Streaming, video content is conventionally encoded by adapting its spatial resolution and quantization level to best match the prevailing network state and display…

Study of Compression Statistics and Prediction of Rate-Distortion Curves for Video Texture

Angeliki V. Katsenou, Mariana Afonso, David R. Bull

Encoding textural content remains a challenge for current standardised video codecs. It is therefore beneficial to understand video textures in terms of both their spatio-temporal…

CAMBI: Contrast-aware Multiscale Banding Index

Pulkit Tandon, Mariana Afonso, Joel Sole +1

Banding artifacts are artificially-introduced contours arising from the quantization of a smooth region in a video. Despite the advent of recent higher quality video systems with m…

ViSTRA2: Video Coding using Spatial Resolution and Effective Bit Depth Adaptation

Fan Zhang, Mariana Afonso, David R. Bull

We present a new video compression framework (ViSTRA2) which exploits adaptation of spatial resolution and effective bit depth, down-sampling these parameters at the encoder based…
