The class of video coders using 3-D subband/wavelet transforms along the motion trajectory has received a lot of interest lately. These non-hybrid or stateless video coders can be highly scalable in bitrate, resolution, and frame rate, and hence are very attractive for implementation on heterogeneous networks. These interframe subband/wavelet coders require a highly accurate local motion field though, and the question of motion vector scalability naturally arises. In this tutorial, we try to illustrate some of the new issues by using the motion-compensated video coder MC-EZBC as a concrete example. We compare results of scalable MC-EZBC to those of the non-scalable H.264 coder, as well as the new scalable video coder currently being developed by MPEG. We also raise the difficult issue of comparison of scalable coders at lower frame rates and resolutions, where they generally have different natural references, and propose a cross-check method. We cover the different architectures of current interframe subband/wavelet video coders and present their advantages and disadvantages. We also present results from wired network video simulation and also in-network data adaptation (scaling) for this class of imbedded video coders. The short course endeavors to bring the attendees knowledge in basic image and video coding up to date on recent developments in this exciting field.
