Abstract As High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) is a worldwide popular video coding standard, the steganography of HEVC videos has gained more and more attention. Prediction Unit (PU) is one of the most important innovative modules of HEVC, thus PU partition mode based steganography is becoming a novel branch of HEVC steganography. However, the embedding capacity of this kind of steganography is limited by the types of PU partition modes. To solve the problem, modified Exploiting Modification Direction (EMD) coded PU partition modes based steganography is proposed in this paper, which can hide a secret digit in a ( [[EQUATION]] )-ary notational system in a pair of PU partition modes and thus enlarging the capacity. Furthermore, two mapping patterns for PU partition modes are analyzed and the one that performs the better is selected as the final mapping pattern. Firstly, 8×8 and 16×16 sized PU partition modes are recorded according to the optimal mapping pattern in the video encoding process. Then PU partition modes are modified by using the proposed method to satisfy the requirement of secret information. Finally, the stego video can be obtained by re-encoding the video with the modified PU partition modes. Experimental results show that the embedding capacity can be significantly enlarged, and compared with the state-of-the-art work, the proposed method has much larger capacity while keeping high visual quality.

H.265 also called High Efficiency Video Coding is the new futuristic international standard proposed by Joint collaboration Team on Video Coding and released in 2013 in the view of constantly increasing demand of video applications. This new standard reduces the bitrate to half as compared to its predecessor H.264 at the expense of huge amount of computational burden on the encoder. In the proposed work we focus on intraprediction phase of video encoding where 33 new angular modes are introduced in addition to DC and Planar mode in order to achieve high quality videos at higher resolutions. We have proposed the use of applied machine learning to HEVC intra prediction to accelerate angular mode decision process. The features used are also low complexity features with minimal computation so as to avoid any additional burden on the encoder. The Decision tree model built is simple yet efficient which is the requirement of the complexity reduction scenario. The proposed method achieves substantial average encoding time saving of 86.59%, with QP values 4,22,27,32 respectively with minimal loss of 0.033 of PSNR and 0.0023 loss in SSIM which makes it suitable for acceptance of High Efficiency Video coding in real time applications

Performance Results

The audiovisual entertainment industry has entered a race to find the video encoder offering the best Rate/Distortion (R/D) performance for high-quality high-definition video content. The challenge consists in providing a moderate to low computational/hardware complexity encoder able to run Ultra High-Definition (UHD) video formats of different flavours (360°, AR/VR, etc.) with state-of-the-art R/D performance results. It is necessary to evaluate not only R/D performance, a highly important feature, but also the complexity of future video encoders. New coding tools offering a small increase in R/D performance at the cost of greater complexity are being advanced with caution. We performed a detailed analysis of two evolutions of High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) video standards, Joint Exploration Model (JEM) and Versatile Video Coding (VVC), in terms of both R/D performance and complexity. The results show how VVC, which represents the new direction of future standards, has, for the time being, sacrificed R/D performance in order to significantly reduce overall coding/decoding complexity.

Recently, cloud computing has emerged as a potential platform for distributed video encoding due to its advantages in terms of costs as well as performance. For distributed video encoding, the input video must be partitioned into several segments, each of which is processed over distributed resources. This paper describes the effect of different video partitioning schemes on overall encoding performance in the distributed encoding of High-Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC). In addition, we explored performances of video partitioning schemes on the basis of the types of the content to be encoded
