Hot Research Topics in Video Coding and Systems

This chapter provides a brief overview of the recent hot research topics and challenges in video coding and systems.This chapter consists of four parts. The first part introduces the perceptual coding-related technology, and the second part details the emerging Internet media-oriented coding. The third part talks about the future challenges and the last part summarizes this chapter.
