Basics of stereoscopic video, new compression results with MPEG-2 and a proposal for MPEG-4

Objective Video Quality Assessment for Stereoscopic Video

“…스테레오 영상은 기존의 2D 영상과는 달리 사용자에게 깊이정보를 제공함으로써 영상을 통해 입체감을 전달하며 이로 인해 사용자는 현장감과 실재감을 느끼게 된다 [9] . 상영시간은 10초 투표시간은 5초로 설정하였다 [14] .…”

Zerotree-based stereoscopic video CODEC

“…The authors of Ref. 3 provide a comprehensive review of other DCT-based stereoscopic video coding techniques.…”

Scalable Stereo Video Coding for Heterogeneous Environments

“…There are many research activities about stereo video compression using block matching algorithm (BMA) or its alternative implementations. The most general implementation method for motion/disparity estimation is BMA which is used in motion estimation of MPEG standard [3][4][5]. Recently, several stereoscopic video compression schemes have been developed by using multi-resolution based BMA in order to reduce a searching complexity of vectors and hierarchical disparity estimation which uses variable block size instead of using fixed block size, to raise accuracy of disparity estimation [6] [7].…”

“…Recently, several stereoscopic video compression schemes have been developed by using multi-resolution based BMA in order to reduce a searching complexity of vectors and hierarchical disparity estimation which uses variable block size instead of using fixed block size, to raise accuracy of disparity estimation [6] [7]. Most of the compression techniques of stereo video mainly focused on the developing the modified coding algorithm using the MPEG-2 multi-view profile [4] [5]. These schemes modified various types of scalability to be suitable for stereo video and concentrated on improving a compression ratio using the similarity between the two views.…”
