A Minimum Mean Square Error Estimation and Mixture-Based Approach to Packet Video Error Concealment

In this paper, a minimum mean square error-optimized mixture-based estimator is used for packet video error concealment. At the same time as on-line computational complexity is reduced, performance in peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) is increased in comparison with a Gaussian mixture-based estimator that obtains its parameters through probability density estimation by means of the expectation maximization algorithm. Moreover, our method increases performance in PSNR compared to several other previous error concealment algorithms©2009 IEEE. Personal use of this material is permitted.
