Low complexity hybrid rate control for lower complexity Wyner-ZIV video decoding

Wyner-Ziv (WZ) video coding is an emerging paradigm which promises to lower the encoding complexity at the cost of additional decoding complexity regarding predictive coding solutions. However, the current decoding complexity increase is huge, very likely unacceptable for the relevant applications, asking for solutions which allow reducing this cost without negatively impacting the RD performance and the encoding complexity. This paper proposes hybrid rate control solutions which allow reaching the objectives above for Stanford-like WZ video codecs.
