However, this results in much higher computational complexities. To address this problem, we develop two fast RQT algorithms for intra- and inter-prediction residual coding respectively. For intra coding, the proposed algorithm selects the best prediction mode in the rate distortion mode decision process using a Prediction Unit （PU） size-dependent fast RQT depth decision on a reduced prediction mode candidates set from the rough mode decision process. For inter coding, in addition to CU size-dependent fast RQT depth decisions, we propose a discriminant analy- sis-based fast depth decision algorithm to det- ermine the best transform unit size. Experimental results show that on average, we can real- ise a 21.29% encoding time saving and 0.03% bit-rate reduction for intra coding, while 15% of the encoding time can be saved with a negligible coding performance loss for inter coding.展开更多
