EFFICIENT QUANTIZATION PARAMETER ESTIMATION IN HEVC BASED ON ρ-DOMAIN
Résumé
This paper proposes a quantization parameter estimation algorithm for HEVC CTU rate control. Several methods were proposed, mostly based on Lagrangian optimization combined with Laplacian distribution for transformed coeffi-cients. These methods are accurate but increase the encoder complexity. This paper provides an innovative reduced com-plexity algorithm based on a ρ-domain rate model. Indeed, for each CTU, the algorithm predicts encoding parameters based on co-located CTU. By combining it with Laplacian distri-bution for transformed coefficients, we obtain the dead-zone boundary for quantization and the related quantization pa-rameter. Experiments in the HEVC HM Reference Software show a good accuracy with only a 3% average bitrate error and no PSNR deterioration for random-access configuration.
