Abstract:
High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) is a successor to the H.264/AVC standard and is the newest video coding standard using a quad-tree structure with three block types of a coding unit (CU), a prediction unit (PU), and a transform unit (TU). HEVC uses all possible depth levels to determine the lowest RD-cost block. Thus, HEVC is more computationally complex than the previous H.264/AVC standard. To overcome this problem, an early skip and merge mode detection algorithm is proposed using spatiotemporal and depth information. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can achieve an approximate 40% time saving with a random-access profile while maintaining comparable rate-distortion performance, compared with HM 12.0 reference software.
