The emerging High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) standard is a new improved next generation video coding standard. HEVC aims to provide improved compression performance as compared to all other video coding standards. To improve the coding efficiency a number of new techniques have been used. The higher compression efficiency is obtained at the cost of an increase in the computational load. In HEVC 35 modes are provided for intra prediction to improve the compression efficiency. The best mode is selected by Rate Distortion Optimization (RDO) process. It achieves significant improvement in coding efficiency compared with previous standards. However, this causes high encoding complexity. This paper discuss the various fast mode decision algorithms for intra prediction in HEVC.

The emerging international standard of high efficiency video coding based 3D video coding (3D-HEVC) is a successor to multiview video coding (MVC). In 3D-HEVC depth intracoding, depth modeling mode (DMM) and high efficiency video coding (HEVC) intraprediction mode are both employed to select the best coding mode for each coding unit (CU). This technique achieves the highest possible coding efficiency, but it results in extremely large encoding time which obstructs the 3D-HEVC from practical application. In this paper, a fast mode decision algorithm based on the correlation between texture video and depth map is proposed to reduce 3D-HEVC depth intracoding computational complexity. Since the texture video and its associated depth map represent the same scene, there is a high correlation among the prediction mode from texture video and depth map. Therefore, we can skip some specific depth intraprediction modes rarely used in related texture CU. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can significantly reduce computational complexity of 3D-HEVC depth intracoding while maintaining coding efficiency.
