APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR GENERALIZED FGS TRUNCATION OF SVC VIDEO WITH USER PREFERENCE

摘要

An apparatus for truncating fine granular scalability (FGS) data of a scalable video coding (SVC) video, the apparatus including: a rate-distortion (R-D) data extractor analyzing a bitstream to extract R-D data of at least one spatial layer; a user preference collector collecting user preference information associated with each spatial layer; a decision engine unit deciding an optimal bitrate of each spatial layer based on the R-D data and the collected user preference information; and a scaling engine unit truncating FGS data that does not correspond to the optimal bitrate of each spatial layer is provided.
