Abstract

In ATM networks cell loss or channel errors can cause data to be dropped in the channel. When digital images/video are transmitted over these networks one must be able to reconstruct the missing data so that the impact of the errors is minimized. We present an error concealment technique for object-coded sequences using the MPEG-4 video coding standard. This method, which is based on using global motion estimation for boundary recovery, consists of boundary extraction, boundary patching using global motion compensation, and object filling to reconstruct the damaged video object.
