    Hierarchical SNR Scalable Video Coding with Adaptive Quantization for Reduced Drift Error
    (2015) Choupani, Roya; Wong, Stephan; Tolun, Mehmet; 06.01. Bilgisayar Mühendisliği; 06.09. Yazılım Mühendisliği; 06. Mühendislik Fakültesi; 01. Çankaya Üniversitesi
    In video coding, dependencies between frames are being exploited to achieve compression by only coding the differences. This dependency can potentially lead to decoding inaccuracies when there is a communication error, or a deliberate quality reduction due to reduced network or receiver capabilities. The dependency can start at the reference frame and progress through a chain of dependent frames within a group of pictures (GOP) resulting in the so-called drift error. Scalable video coding schemes should deal with such drift errors while maximizing the delivered video quality. In this paper, we present a multi-layer hierarchical structure for scalable video coding capable of reducing the drift error. Moreover, we propose an optimization to adaptively determine the quantization step size for the base and enhancement layers. In addition, we address the trade-off between the drift error and the coding efficiency. The improvements in terms of average PSNR values when one frame in a GOP is lost are 3.70(dB) when only the base layer is delivered, and 4.78(dB) when both the base and the enhancement layers are delivered. The improvements in presence of burst errors are 3.52(dB) when only the base layer is delivered, and 4.50(dB) when both base and enhancement layers are delivered.

    Multiple Description Scalable Coding for Video Transmission Over Unreliable Networks
    (Springer-verlag Berlin, 2009) Choupanı, Roya; Choupani, Roya; Tolun, Mehmet Reşit; Wong, Stephan; Tolun, Mehmet R.; 1863; Bilgisayar Mühendisliği; Yazılım Mühendisliği; 06.01. Bilgisayar Mühendisliği; 06.09. Yazılım Mühendisliği; 06. Mühendislik Fakültesi; 01. Çankaya Üniversitesi
    Developing real time multimedia applications for best effort networks such as the Internet requires prohibitions against jitter delay and frame loss. This problem is further complicated in wireless networks as the rate of frame corruption or loss is higher in wireless networks while they generally have lower data rates compared to wired networks. On the other hand, variations of the bandwidth and the receiving device characteristics require data rate adaptation capability of the coding method. Multiple Description Coding (MDC) methods are used to solve the jitter delay and frame loss problems by making the transmitted data more error resilient, however, this results in reduced data rate because of the added overhead. MDC methods do not address the bandwidth variation and receiver characteristics differences. In this paper a new method based on integrating MDC and the scalable video coding extension of H.264 standard is proposed. Our method can handle both jitter delay and frame loss, and data rate adaptation problems. Our method utilizes motion compensating scheme and, therefore, is compatible with the current video coding standards such as MPEG-4 and H.264. Based on the simulated network conditions, our method shows promising results and we have achieved tip to 36dB for average Y-PSNR.
