High efficiency video coding (HEVC) is the latest video coding standard. The coding unit(CU) of HEVC uses a quadtree-based coding structure to increase coding performance. To improve predict more accurately, using 35 prediction modes in intra prediction. This process which is meant to improve the efficiency in HEVC intra prediction however leads to a significantly higher computational complexity. Hence, in this paper, we proposed an SVM based fast intra CU depth decision algorithm to reduce the computational complexity. It is convenient to develop the criterion of early CU splitting and termination by applying SVM with features, including Variance, low-frequency AC value, and neighboring CU depth. After that, we utilize two methods to speed up the intra coding prediction. In intra prediction, HEVC adopt RMD algorithm which 8,8,3,3,3 modes for candidates list in different PU size. In our intra mode decision, the modes with larger SATD cost are removed from candidate list of RDO process. The threshold is adaptive by block size and QP. In CU, we used SVM again to fast the criterion of early CU splitting and termination. The experimental results show that our proposed algorithm achieves 25.45% encoding time saving on average without significant degradation of coding performance. |
