Fisheye cameras have become extremely popular in applications where the goal is to capture large fields of view with only one camera. However, wide-angle fisheye imagery has special characteristics that may not be very well suited for modern video codecs employ block-based translational motion model. This model fails describe complex deformable which often present videos. In this paper, we advocate usage elastic compensating such a motion. The presented design enables re-use existing codecs,...

This because HEVC, current partitioning starts from rigid $64 \times 64$ pixels level without...

Traditional video coding standards employ block-based translational motion modelwhere all the pixels inside current block are assigned a single vector. Thisuniformity of within assumption does not hold if containsa discontinuity. To improve gain, modern codecs partitionblocks around object boundaries into smaller square or rectangular sub-blocks. The prediction residual energy frame is minimized at expense increasing bit rate to code data. inspiration behind hints move away from this...
Traditional video coding uses the motion model to approximate geometric boundaries of moving objects where discontinuities occur. Motion hints based inter-frame prediction paradigm moves away from this redundant approach and employs an innovative framework consisting hint fields that are continuous invertible, at least, over their respective domains. However, estimation is computationally demanding, in particular for high resolution sequences. In paper, we propose discover models associated...
Recent advances in motion modelling have largely focused on careful partitioning of blocks the vicinity object boundaries. The need for such fine can be avoided by using hints which provide a global description over specific domains.
