In all of the existing block-based image and video coding standards, blocks are processed in the fixed scan order. Then in HEVC intra coding, intra prediction is always based on the top and/or left neighboring reconstructed pixels, which incurs less accurate prediction for blocks where the spatial correlation is not along the topleft-to-bottomright direction. To obtain better intra prediction, we propose to flexibly determine the coding order of blocks in HEVC intra coding. Complying with the hierarchical quadtree structure in HEVC, our flexible block ordering (FBO) technique recursively decides the coding order of four sub-blocks when splitting one block. Moreover, we propose new methods to perform inter/extrapolation for intra prediction so as to fully utilize neighboring reconstructed pixels, not always being top/left. Experimental results show that our proposed FBO technique achieves on average 2.9% BD-rate reduction compared to HEVC baseline.

In this paper, we propose a novel deep architecture with multiple classifiers for continuous sign language recognition. Representing the sign video with a 3D convolutional residual network and a bidirectional LSTM, we formulate continuous sign language recognition as a grammatical-rule-based classification problem. We first split a text sentence of sign language into isolated words and n-grams, where an n-gram is a sequence of consecutive n words in a sentence. Then, we propose a word-independent classifiers (WIC) module and an n-gram classifier (NGC) module to identify the words and n-grams in a sentence, respectively. A greedy decoding algorithm is employed to integrate words and n-grams into the sentence based on the confidence scores provided by both modules. Our method is evaluated on a Chinese continuous sign language recognition benchmark, and the experimental results demonstrate its effectiveness and superiority.

Rapid growing intelligent applications require optimized bit allocation in image/video coding to support specific task-driven scenarios such as detection, classification, segmentation, etc. Some learning-based frameworks have been proposed for this purpose due to their inherent end-to-end optimization mechanisms. However, it is still quite challenging to integrate these task-driven metrics seamlessly into traditional hybrid coding framework. To the best of our knowledge, this paper is the first work trying to solve this challenge based on reinforcement learning (RL) approach. Specifically, we formulate the bit allocation problem as a Markovian Decision Process (MDP) and train RL agents to automatically decide the quantization parameter (QP) of each coding tree unit (CTU) for HEVC intra coding, according to the task-driven semantic distortion metrics. This bit allocation scheme can maximize the semantic level fidelity of the task, such as classification accuracy, while minimizing the bit-rate. We also employ gradient class activation map (Grad-CAM) and Mask R-CNN tools to extract task-related importance maps to help the agents make decisions. Extensive experimental results demonstrate the superior performance of our approach by achieving 43.1% to 73.2% bit-rate saving over the anchor of HEVC under the equivalent task-related distortions.

The directional intra prediction (DIP) modes in HEVC are capable of predicting local continuous image features. Recently, intra block copy (IBC) is proposed for screen content coding, aiming at predicting non-local recurrent image features. For natural video, we observe that recurrent features are often irregular and not aligned with blocks. Thus, we propose a combination of DIP and IBC with block partition for better intra prediction, where one block can be divided into several partitions, each of which may choose between DIP and IBC. We study an intra prediction scheme with the proposed combination, especially the rate-distortion optimization and entropy coding in the scheme. Preliminary experimental results show that the proposed combined intra prediction achieves as high as 5.8% bit-rate saving compared to HEVC anchor.

Query difficulty estimation (QDE) attempts to automatically predict the performance of the search results returned for a given query. QDE has been widely investigated in text document retrieval for many years. However, few research works have been explored in image retrieval. State-of-the-art QDE methods in image retrieval mainly investigate the statistical characteristics (coherence, robustness, etc.) of the returned images to derive a value for indicating the query difficulty degree. To the best of our knowledge, little research has been done to directly estimate the real retrieval performance of the search results, such as average precision, instead of only an indicator. In this paper, we propose a novel query difficulty estimation approach which automatically estimate the average precision of the image search results. Specifically, we first select a set of query relevant and query irrelevant images for each query via pseudo relevance feedback. Then an efficient and effective voting scheme is proposed to estimate the relevance label of each image in the search results. Based on the images' relevance labels, the average precision of the search results returned for the given query is derived. The experimental results on a benchmark image search dataset demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Semantic segmentation is a fundamental task in indoor scene understanding. Most previous supervised approaches rely on densely annotated image data sets. Due to the limited amount of images with segmentation labels, the performance of existing networks is greatly limited. In this paper, we exploit temporal correlation in video frames to improve the performance and robustness of segmentation networks. Two effective learning strategies are proposed to propagate the information from a few labeled frames to their immediate neighbor frames. First, we scale up training dataset for supervised semantic segmentation networks by generating pseudo ground-truth for neighboring frames from a labeled frame using filtered homography transformation. Furthermore, we introduce a self-supervised loss function to ensure temporal consistency between the segmentation results of adjacent frames. The experimental results demonstrate that our proposed method outperforms state-of-the-art techniques for semantic segmentation on NYU-Depth V2 dataset.

Motion estimation and motion compensation are fundamental in video coding to remove the temporal redundancy between video frames. The current video coding schemes usually adopt block-based motion estimation and compensation using simple translational or affine motion models, which cannot efficiently characterize complex motions in natural video signal. In this paper, we propose a frame extrapolation method for motion estimation and compensation. Specifically, based on the several previous frames, our method directly extrapolates the current frame using a trained deep network model. The deep network we adopted is a redesigned Video Coding oriented LAplacian Pyramid of Generative Adversarial Networks (VC-LAPGAN). The extrapolated frame is then used as an additional reference frame. Experimental results show that the VC-LAPGAN is capable in estimating and compensating for complex motions, and extrapolating frames with high visual quality. Using the VC-LAPGAN, our method achieves on average 2.0% BD-rate reduction than High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) under low-delay P configuration.

The High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) with the transform bypass mode is simple but inefficient for lossless coding. For this reason, we propose a novel transform to further eliminate the redundancy between residues of different blocks in intra prediction. Dependent on intra prediction modes, the proposed transform is adaptable to exploit correlations of residues formed by different modes. In order to accurately obtain parameters of the transform matrix, an approach similar to the Wiener filtering method is adopted. Experimental results show that on top of the lossless coding mode in HEVC, our method offers the performance with a 7.4% bit-rate reduction on average for All Intra Main configuration. Compared with other representative algorithms, our proposal still shows an improvement in the compression ratio, without substantial increases of computational complexity in the encoder or decoder.

Light field image quality assessment (LF-IQA) plays a significant role due to its guidance to Light Field (LF) contents acquisition, processing and application. The LF can be represented as 4-D signal, and its quality depends on both angular consistency and spatial quality. However, few existing LF-IQA methods concentrate on effects caused by angular inconsistency. Especially, no-reference methods lack effective utilization of 2D angular information. In this paper, we focus on measuring the 2-D angular consistency for LF-IQA. The Micro-Lens Image (MLI) refers to the angular domain of the LF image, which can simultaneously record the angular information in both horizontal and vertical directions. Since the MLI contains 2D angular information, we propose a No-Reference Light Field image Quality assessment model based on MLI (LF-QMLI). Specifically, we first utilize Global Entropy Distribution (GED) and Uniform Local Binary Pattern descriptor (ULBP) to extract features from the MLI, and then pool them together to measure angular consistency. In addition, the information entropy of SubAperture Image (SAI) is adopted to measure spatial quality. Extensive experimental results show that LF-QMLI achieves the state-of-the-art performance.

Objective quality assessment of stereoscopic panoramic images becomes a challenging problem owing to the rapid growth of 360-degree contents. Different from traditional 2D image quality assessment (IQA), more complex aspects are involved in 3D omnidirectional IQA, especially unlimited field of view (FoV) and extra depth perception, which brings difficulty to evaluate the quality of experience (QoE) of 3D omnidirectional images. In this paper, we propose a multi-viewport based full-reference stereo 360 IQA model. Due to the freely changeable viewports when browsing in the head-mounted display, our proposed approach processes the image inside FoV rather than the projected one such as equirectangular projection (ERP). In addition, since overall QoE depends on both image quality and depth perception, we utilize the features estimated by the difference map between left and right views which can reflect disparity. The depth perception features along with binocular image qualities are employed to further predict the overall QoE of 3D 360 images. The experimental results on our public Stereoscopic OmnidirectionaL Image quality assessment Database (SOLID) show that the proposed method achieves a significant improvement over some well-known IQA metrics and can accurately reflect the overall QoE of perceived images.
