Abstract

The IEEE 1857 Standard for Advanced Audio and Video Coding was released as IEEE 1857-2013 in June 2013. Despite consisting of several different groups, the most significant feature of IEEE 1857-2013 is its Surveillance Groups, which can not only achieve at least twice the coding efficiency on surveillance videos as H.264/AVC High Profile, but it´s the most analysis-friendly video coding standard. This article presents an overview of IEEE 1857 Surveillance Groups, highlighting background model-based coding technology and analysis-friendly functionalities. IEEE 1857-2013 will present new opportunities and drive research in smart video surveillance communities and industries.
