Motion-compensated temporal filtering subband video codecs have attracted recently a lot of
attention, due to their compression performance comparable with that of state-of-the-art
hybrid codecs and due to their additional scalability features. In this paper, we present a
scalable video codec based on a 5/3 adaptive temporal lifting decomposition. Different
adaptation criteria for coping with the occluded areas are discussed and new criteria for
optimizing the temporal prediction are introduced. For our simulations, we use a memory …
