In image compression, codecs that rely on interpolation with partial differential equations (PDEs) are becoming increasingly popular. However, there have not been many attempts to transfer this concept to video compression. Since real-time performance is challenging for PDE-based reconstruction, first efficient approaches work on a frame-by-frame basis and focus on parallel implementations without considering coding quality. So far, there is no fully PDE-based video codec that exploits temporal redundancies. As a remedy, we propose a modular framework that combines PDE-based compression with motion compensation: Intra frames are predicted with PDE-based inpainting and inter frames with dense optic flow fields. We use this framework to develop a proof-of-concept codec that combines homogeneous diffusion inpainting with the variational optic flow model of Brox et al. (2004). Even without sophisticated parallelisation, we are able to perform real-time decompression of colour videos for the first time in PDE-based video compression.
