Scalability techniques based on content information
First Claim
1. A method of encoding multimedia data, comprising:
- classifying content of multimedia data;
partitioning the multimedia data into a first data group and a second data group based on the content classification, wherein the partitioning is defined according to a bandwidth ratio; and
encoding the multimedia data in the first data group and in the second data group based on the partitioning, wherein the amount of data in the first data group relative to the second data group corresponds to the bandwidth ratio.

Abstract
Apparatus and methods of using content information for encoding multimedia data are described. A method of processing multimedia data includes classifying content of multimedia data, and encoding the multimedia data in a first data group and in a second data group based on the content classification, wherein the first data group comprises a coefficient and the second data group comprises a first differential refinement associated with the first data group coefficient. An apparatus for using content information for encoding multimedia data includes a content classifying module configured to classify content of multimedia data and provide content classification data, and an encoder configured to encode the multimedia data in a first data group and in a second data group based on the content classification, wherein the first data group comprises a coefficient and the second data group comprises a first differential refinement associated with the first data group coefficient.
