Abstract
Problem statement: The visual effects of blocking artifacts can be reduce by using deblocking filter. Also with out smoothing the natural edges,the perceived quality of video sequence can be enchanced. This study propose a method to remove blocking artifacts in low bit-rate block based video coding. Approach: The proposed algorithm has two separate filtering modes, which are selected by pixel behavior around the block boundary. In each mode, proper one-dimensional filtering operations are performed across the block boundary along horizontal and vertical directions, respectively. In the first mode corresponding flat regions, a strong filter is applied inside the block as well as on the block boundary, because the flat regions are more sensitive to the Human Visual System (HVS) and the artifacts propagated from the previous frame due to motion compensation are distributed inside the block. In the second mode corresponding to other regions, a sophisticated smoothing filter, which is based on the frequency information around block boundaries, is used to reduce blocking artifacts adaptively without introducing undesired blur. Even though the proposed deblocking filter is quite simple, it improves both subjective and objective image quality for various image features. Results and Conclusion: Deblocking filter improves the PSNR of about 0.1 dB for video encoded using MPEG-4 and H.264 without using its own in-loop deblocking filter. It has proven to be good in the reduction of the very annoying blocking artifacts caused by video compression.

The main topics in the modern research of the field of multimedia are video compression and video coding
Block-based processing technique was used by the most of the video coding standards of the part. This kind of processing can cause visible blocking artifacts in the encoded video which are annoying for the user. their effect should be mitigated as much as possible.The main source of blocking artifacts is the block-based integer Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) in intra- and inter-frame prediction error coding.The second source of blocking artifacts is motion compensated prediction.The interpolated pixel data present in different reference frames can be used to generate motion compensated blocks.Discontinuities on the edge of copied block occur as there is almost never a perfect fit fot this data.Video compression leads to blocking which is the annoying visible artifacts
The PSNR for two images can be computed as follows: to original image the small improvement in PSNR value,the deblocking filter has proved to be reduced of annoying blocking artifacts by video compression..It can be clearly seen that the blocks are smoothed out human eye perceives a better quality of the deblocked frame
Summary
The main topics in the modern research of the field of multimedia are video compression and video coding. Filtering modes are calculated based on the video codecs (and the related blocking-artifacts), are variation of vertical and horizontal six-pixel vectors in covered by this method such that it filters 4×4 its each 4x4 block boundary. This process considers the blocking artifacts in video coded with 8×8 block DCT, like. The PSNR for two images can be computed as follows: to original image the small improvement in PSNR value,the deblocking filter has proved to be reduced of annoying blocking artifacts by video compression..It can be clearly seen that the blocks are smoothed out human eye perceives a better quality of the deblocked frame
