Intra-fr a me coding is used in video coding (compression). It is part of an intra-fr a me codec like ProRes: a group of pictures codec without inter fr a mes.
Intra-fr a me prediction exploits spatial redundancy, i.e. correlation among pixels within one fr a me, by calculating prediction values through extrapolation from already coded pixels for effective delta coding. It is one of the two classes of predictive coding methods in video coding. Its counterpart is inter-fr a me prediction which exploits temporal redundancy. Temporally independently coded so-called intra fr a mes use only intra coding. The temporally coded predicted fr a mes (e.g. MPEG's P- and B-fr a mes) may use intra- as well as inter-fr a me prediction.
