摘要：With the study of human visual system (HVS), people find that the human eye shows different degree of sensitivity to different light signals. A higher background brightness region of the human eye for the distortion, the degree of sensitivity will be greatly reduced. The human eye's sensitivity will be greatly reduced to the distortion of a higher brightness background region. This finding is discribed in Weber-Fechner law. Therefore, the encoder can be improved by employing this characteristic of human visual system. In this paper, the authors use this characteristic to improve the H.264 video coding algorithm. In order to improve the compression efficiency of encoder, give the brightness of different regions with different levels of quantification by adjusting the quantization step size (QP), without affecting the subjective quality of video. Experimental results show that the output bit rate decrease up to 10% -20% by using this improved algorithm in H.264 reference encoder, and the subjective quality of decoded image by using this improved algorithm is as good as the standard H.264 encoders.
