Video encoders may use several techniques to improve error resilience. In particular, for video encoders that rely on predictive (inter) coding to remove temporal redundancy, intra coding refreshment is especially useful to stop temporal error propagation when errors occur in the transmission or storage of the coded streams, since these errors may cause the decoded quality to decay very rapidly. In the context of object-based video coding, intra coding refreshment can be applied to both the shape and texture data. In this paper, novel shape and texture intra refreshment schemes are proposed which can be used by object-based video encoders, such as MPEG-4 video encoders, independently or combined. These schemes allow to adaptively determine when the shape and texture of the various video objects in a scene should be refreshed in order to maximize the decoded video quality for a certain total bit rate.
