This book captures recent advances in motion compensation for efficient
video compression. The application oriented part of the book employs the
concept of ITU-T Recommendation H.263, and continues with the
improvements by superimposed motion-compensated signals for the EMERGING
STANDARDS ITU-T Recommendation H.264 & ISO/IEC MPEG-4 part 10. In
addition, Video Coding with Superimposed Motion-Compensated Signals:
Applications to H.264 and Beyond discusses a new approach for
wavelet-based video coding. This book incorporates more than 200
references, summarizes relevant prior work, and develops a mathematical
characterization of superimposed motion-compensated signals.
