A dual Cauchy rate-distortion model is proposed for video coding. In our approach, the coefficient distribution of the integer transform is first studied. Then, based on the observation that the rate-distortion model of the luminance and that of the chrominance can be well expressed by separate Cauchy functions, a dual Cauchy rate-distortion model is presented. Furthermore, the simplified rate-distortion formulas are deduced to reduce the computational complexity of the proposed model without losing the accuracy. Experimental results have shown that the proposed model is better able to approximate the actual rate-distortion curve for various sequences with different motion activities.
