Abstract
Systems and methods for using selective inter-layer prediction during layered video coding operations are described. In one aspect, a layered coded video structure is generated by selectively employing only objectively efficient inter-layer predictions between respective frames. Responsive to receiving a request for coded video data, one or more layers of the layered coded video structure are communicated to an application for decoding and presentation of video data to a user.
