Local Binary Pattern Guided Bilateral Spatial Error Reconstruction

In many communication occasions, packet loss or data corruption often occurs. Data incompleteness results in video degradation, which greatly affect visual quality. Error concealment is needed for the robustness of video transmission. In this paper, we introduce a local binary pattern guided bilateral spatial error concealment. In the computation of local search window, neighboring local binary patterns are computed. The computed binary value is forwarded to bilateral distance weight framework. In bilateral weight computation framework, geometric distance of neighboring patches is replaced by Hamming distance of neighboring local binary patterns. Finally, favorable results of the proposed algorithm are shown in experiments comparing with several competitors.
