Abstract

In this paper an improved, macroblock (MB) level, visual saliency algorithm, aimed at video compression, is presented. A Relevance Vector Machine (RVM) is trained over 3 dimensional feature vectors, pertaining to global, local and rarity measures of conspicuity, to yield probabalistic values which form the saliency map. These saliency values are used for non-uniform bit-allocation over video frames. A video compression architecture for propagation of saliency values, saving tremendous amount of computation, is also proposed.
