Highly scalable video compression with scalable motion coding

A scalable video coder cannot be equally efficient over a wide range of bit rates unless both the video data and the motion information are scalable. We propose a wavelet-based, highly scalable video compression scheme with rate-scalable motion coding. The proposed method involves the construction of quality layers for the coded sample data and a separate set of quality layers for the coded motion parameters. When the motion layers are truncated, the decoder receives a quantized version of the motion parameters used to code the sample data. The effect of motion parameter quantization on the reconstructed video distortion is described by a linear model. The optimal tradeoff between the motion and subband bit rates is determined after compression. We propose two methods to determine the optimal tradeoff, one of which explicitly utilizes the linear model. This method performs comparably to a brute force search method, reinforcing the validity of the linear model itself. Experimental results indicate that the cost of scalability is small. In addition, considerable performance improvements are observed at low bit rates, relative to lossless coding of the motion information.
