Abstract
In this paper a coding unit early termination algorithm resulting in a fast intra prediction is proposed that terminates complete full search prediction for the coding unit. This is followed by a prediction unit mode decision to find the optimal modes HEVC encoder 35 prediction modes. This includes a two-step process: firstly calculating the Sum of Absolute Differences (SAD) of all the modes by down sampling method and secondly applying a three-step search algorithm to remove unnecessary modes. This is followed by early RDOQ (Rate Distortion Optimization Quantization) termination algorithm to further reduce the encoding time. Experimental results based on several video test sequences for 30 frames from each test sequence show for HEVC a decrease of about 35%-48% in encoding, with negligible degradation in peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR). Metrics such as BD-bitrate (Bjontegaard Delta bitrate), BD-PSNR (Bjontegaard Delta Peak Signal to Noise Ratio) and RD plots (Rate Distortion) are also used.
