Abstract

High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) is the latest video coding system jointly developed by ITU Video Coding Experts Group (VCEG) and ISO/IEC Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG). According to the quality evaluation performed on the set of test sequences adopted for the development of the compression system, HEVC provides the same perceptual video quality of its predecessor ITU-T H.264 / MPEG-4 Part 10 Advanced Video Coding (AVC) almost halving the bitrate. This paper presents novel experimental results on HEVC compression efficiency with respect to AVC based on objective measurements carried out on new 2D and 3D video sequences. 2D test material includes both progressive (from UHD-1 to 720p resolutions, 8/10 bit-depth) and interlaced sequences (1080i) while 3D stereo sequences are full HD 1080p50 per eye.
