Abstract

As the capacity of communications systems is currently being outpaced by the increasing demand for access to audio-visual services, the versatile video coding (VVC) standard has emerged. It shows around 40% bit rate savings over the predecessor codec, the high efficiency video coding (HEVC) standard. However, this coding gain is obtained with a significant increase in the computational complexity associated with VVC. The cuboidal partitioning algorithm has shown capabilities in modeling both the global and local commonality of a video frame and discovers a set of non-overlapping rectangular regions, known as cuboids, over the current frame. Since cuboids are highly homogeneous and are computationally efficient, in this paper, it is proposed to employ their intrinsic homogeneity information in predicting the coding tree unit (CTU) structure of VVC. Experimental results show that up to 10.5% complexity reduction for intra coded 4K resolution video sequences, with an increase in bit rate by 1.4%.

OtherWe are delighted to extend a warm invitation to you for the 25th International Conference on Digital Image Computing: Techniques and Applications (DICTA 2024). DICTA is the premier conference organized in Australia on computer vision, image processing, pattern recognition, and related areas. DICTA was established in 1991 as a flagship conference of the Australian Pattern Recognition Society (APRS) and has been historically co-sponsored technically by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the International Association for Pattern Recognition (IAPR). The 25th DICTA 2024 conference will be held in Novotel Perth Murrey Street, Perth, Western Australia from Nov 27-29, 2024 preceded by workshops on Nov 26 at The University of Western Australia. DICTA 2024 will feature regular and special sessions, industry demos and panels, journal-to-conference track, challenges, and keynote talks from distinguished speakers.

DICTA 2024 offers ample opportunities to connect with the brightest minds from academia and industry in the field of digital image processing. We invite students, academic and industry researchers as well as practitioners to submit their latest work for presentation at DICTA 2024. We look forward to welcoming you all to Perth for an enriching conference experience!
