Theoretical Modeling of Inter-Frame Prediction Error for High Frame-Rate Video Signal

Realistic representations using extremely high quality images are becoming increasingly popular. For example, digital cinemas can now display moving pictures composed of high-resolution digital images. Although these applications focus on increasing the spatial resolution only, higher frame-rates are being considered to achieve more realistic representations. Since increasing the frame-rate increases the total amount of information, efficient coding methods are required. However, its statistical properties are not clarified. This paper establishes for high frame-rate video a mathematical model of the relationship between frame-rate and bit-rate. A coding experiment confirms the validity of the mathematical model.
