摘要:

IEEE 1857, Standard for Advanced Audio and Video Coding, was released as IEEE 1857-2013 in June 2013. Despite consisting of several different groups, the most significant feature of IEEE 1857-2013 is its surveillance groups, which can not only achieve at least twice coding efficiency on surveillance videos as H.264/AVC HP, but also should be the most recognition-friendly video coding standard till to now. This article presents an overview of IEEE 1857 surveillance groups, highlighting the background model based coding technology and recognition-friendly functionalities. We believe that IEEE 1857-2013 will bring new opportunities and drives to the research communities and industries on smart video surveillance systems.
