A coding mode selection method is provided to improve the visual quality of an encoded video sequence. The coding mode is selected based on a human visual tolerance level. Picture data may be received for a video coding process. The picture data is then analyzed to determine human visual tolerance adjustment information. For example, parameters of a cost equation may be adjusted based on the human visual tolerance level, which may be a tolerance that is based on a distortion bound that the human visual system can tolerate. The picture data may be analyzed in places that are considered visually sensitive areas, such as trailing suspicious areas, stripping suspicious areas, picture boundary areas, and/or blocking suspicious areas. Depending on what kind of visually sensitive area is found in the picture data, a parameter in a cost equation may be adjusted based on different visual tolerance thresholds. The coding mode is then determined based on the cost. |
