Abstract
A fundamental difference in the MCTF coding scheme from the conventional compensated DCT schemes is that the predicted residue is further used to update the temporal low-pass frames. If the motion prediction is inaccurate, it would introduce ghost at the low-pass frames when some high-pass frames are dropped due to limited channel bandwidth or device capability. However, it will definitely hurt the coding efficiency if the update step is removed totally. To solve the dilemma, this paper proposes a content adaptive update scheme, where the JND (Just Noticeable Difference) metric is used to evaluate the impact of the update steps in terms of visual quality at the low-pass frames. The JND thresholds are image dependent, and as long as the update information remains below these thresholds, we achieve “update residual” transparency. Therefore, the potential ghost artifacts detected by the model can be alleviated by adaptively removing visible part of the predicted residues. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm not only significantly improves subjective visual quality of the temporal low-pass frames but also maintains the PSNR performance compared with the normal full update.
