METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR IMPROVED VIDEO ENCODING USING REGION OF INTEREST (ROI) INFORMATION

摘要

A method and apparatus are provided for improved video encoding using region of interest information. The apparatus includes an encoder for encoding a plurality of regions of a picture by determining, using region of interest detection, a respective probability that each of the plurality of regions belong to a region of interest, and adaptively controlling a respective quality of each of the plurality of regions based on a value of the respective probability.
