An integrated temporal error concealment for H.264/AVC based on spatial evaluation criteria
Owing to error-prone transmission networks, the compressed video bit stream is prone to packet loss in the transmission channel. This loss causes serious distortion and the distortion will propagate to successive frames, especially in highly compressed video coding standard. Therefore, it is very important to efficiently enhance the restored result. In this paper, an integrated temporal error concealment technique for H.264/AVC is proposed. The technique could effectively restore the corrupted data by adaptively integrating error concealment approaches with the adaptive weight-based switching algorithm. The integrated mechanism is based on spatial evaluation criteria, judged by boundary distortion estimation and texture intensity. Experimental results show that the technique could effectively enhance the performance of error concealment.
