| This paper presents an MPEG-2 compatible
adaptive quantization algorithm that leads to the optimal
encoding of I-frames in the sense of maximizing PSNR. It
integrates three key features into a single Lagrangian
optimization model: adaptive quantization including
quantizer-change overhead consideration, coefficient
thresholding, and a new coefficient amplitude reduction
technique. Our results show that I-frames generated by the TM5
reference encoder are about 1.5-2.0 dB below the theoretical
optimum. |
