Bjontegaard metric :BDBR和BD-PSNR

A、VCEG 建議採用Bjontegaard metric described in [1] to provide relative gain between two methods,by measuring average difference between the two RD-curves.

     參考[3]中的文檔提供了這兩種值的計算工具：the bitrate saving between two methods, for a given objective quality; and the PSNR-Y delta for a given bitrate  .

   由此可見 Bjøntegaard delta bit rate (BDBR) 表示了在同樣的客觀品質下，兩種方法的碼率節省情況(Rate/distortion curves 畫一條水平線)

     Bjøntegaard delta peak signal-to-noise rate (BD-PSNR)表示了在給定的同等碼率下，兩種方法的PSNR-Y的差異(Rate/distortion curves 畫一條垂直線)。

 

B、在HEVC中，[4]提供另外一種使用五點來計算BD-PSNR/Rate的工具，
