This paper presents the modeling and prediction of variable bit rate video
sources using fuzzy set and fuzzy logic theory. The sources are coded with
the hybrid motion compensation/differential pulse code modulation/discrete
cosine transform algorithm. The fuzzy logic prediction scheme discussed her
e is in the category of computational intelligence algorithms. It has the c
apability to handle statistically difficult to describe or unknown series.
The proposed fuzzy logic prediction method is aimed at fast computation for
online operation. It can be applied to the development of connection admis
sion control, usage parameter control, and congestion control algorithms in
multimedia communication networks.
