Analysis of Frame Partitioning in HEVC

  • Conference paper
Computer Vision and Graphics (ICCVG 2014)

Abstract

The paper presents analysis of frame partitioning in the next generation video coding standard HEVC. Complex study on frequency of the particular coding unit, prediction unit and transform unit sizes selection made by the encoder compliant with HEVC technology is included. General conclusions based on extensive experiments for HD video sequences are presented. Such knowledge may be the first step to the development of more efficient mode selection algorithms.
