Perceptually Lossless Compression with Error Concealment for Periscope and Sonar Videos

Abstract

We present a video compression framework that has two key features. First, we aim at achieving perceptually lossless compression for low frame rate videos (6 fps). Four well-known video codecs in the literature have been evaluated and the performance was assessed using four well-known performance metrics. Second, we investigated the impact of error concealment algorithms for handling corrupted pixels due to transmission errors in communication channels. Extensive experiments using actual videos have been performed to demonstrate the proposed framework.
