Abstract

An example apparatus for encoding video frames includes a mask selector to select a subset of visual masks according to an actual target compression ratio and GOP configuration and a complexity estimator to estimate a picture level spatial/temporal complexity for a current frame. The example apparatus further includes a GOP adaptive visual mask selector to specify a visual mask from the subset of the visual masks corresponding to the estimated spatial and temporal complexity value a good enough picture QP deriver to derive a good enough picture QP value using the visual mask. The example apparatus also includes an adjustor to adjust the good enough picture QP value based on block level human visual system sensitivity and statistics of already encoded frames to obtain a final human visual system QP map.
