• Authors: Ali Abdari, Pouria Amirjan, Azadeh Mansouri
• Abstract summary: Temporal redundancy and the sheer size of raw videos are the two most common problematic issues related to video processing algorithms. This paper presents an approach for using residual data, available in compressed videos directly, which can be obtained by a light partially decoding procedure. Applying neural networks exclusively for accumulated residuals in the compressed domain accelerates performance, while the classification results are highly competitive with raw video approaches.

• Abstract: With the widespread use of installed cameras, video-based monitoring approaches have seized considerable attention for different purposes like assisted living. Temporal redundancy and the sheer size of raw videos are the two most common problematic issues related to video processing algorithms. Most of the existing methods mainly focused on increasing accuracy by exploring consecutive frames, which is laborious and cannot be considered for real-time applications. Since videos are mostly stored and transmitted in compressed format, these kinds of videos are available on many devices. Compressed videos contain a multitude of beneficial information, such as motion vectors and quantized coefficients. Proper use of this available information can greatly improve the video understanding methods' performance. This paper presents an approach for using residual data, available in compressed videos directly, which can be obtained by a light partially decoding procedure. In addition, a method for accumulating similar residuals is proposed, which dramatically reduces the number of processed frames for action recognition. Applying neural networks exclusively for accumulated residuals in the compressed domain accelerates performance, while the classification results are highly competitive with raw video approaches.

  Existing video compression (VC) methods primarily aim to reduce the spatial and temporal redundancies between consecutive frames in a video. Previous works have achieved remarkable results on videos acquired under specific settings such as instant (known) exposure time and shutter speed. In this work, we tackle the VC problem in a general scenario where a given video can be blurry due to predefined camera settings or dynamics in the scene.

  We focus on exploiting the unique characteristics of video content and exploring temporal information to enhance compression performance. For long-range temporal information exploitation, we propose temporal prior that can update continuously within the group of pictures (GOP) during inference. In that case temporal prior contains valuable temporal information of all decoded images within the current GOP. In detail, we design a hierarchical structure to achieve multi-scale compensation.
