Abstract
It is well-known that flexibility and error resilience are
significantly improved by employing a scalable bit stream. The major
drawback of multi-layered representations within a motion compensated
(MC) discrete cosine transform (DCT) based framework is the increase in
bit rate as compared to a single-layered representation having the same
frequency, spatial and temporal resolution as in the highest layer of
the multi-layered representation. Using rate-distortion (RD)
optimization techniques, we can improve the compression efficiency of
MC-DCT based SNR and spatially scalable video coding framework. We first
show how RD optimization techniques can be applied independently for
each layer. We then extend the framework to consider coding decisions
jointly across layers
