Systems and methods are described for determining an optimised sampling ratio for coding video data that reduces overall distortion introduced by the coding process. It seeks to balance the information loss introduced during downsampling and the information loss introduced during coding. The sampling ratio is generally determined by reducing, or in some cases minimizing, the overall error introduced through the downsampling process and the coding process, and may be adaptive based on the content of the video data being processed and a target bit rate. Computation power can be saved by coding a downsampled video. The process derives a plurality of downsampling ratios, and selects a downsampling ratio that reduces the total amount of distortion introduced during the down - sampling and coding stages. The down - sampling ratio may be selected given the available data transmission capacity, input video signal statistics, and/or other operational parameters, and may optimally reduce the overall distortion. |
