To seamlessly adapt to time-varying network bandwidths, Quality Scalable High-Efficiency Video Coding (QSHVC) is developed. However, its coding process is overwhelmingly complex, and this seriously limits its wide applications in realtime environments. Therefore, it is of great significance to study fast coding algorithms for QSHVC. In this paper, we propose a novel probability-based All-Zero Block (AZB) early termination algorithm for QSHVC. We observe that the generated residual coefficients follow the Laplace distribution if a CU is accurately predicted. Based on this observation, we derive the sum of squared differences-based AZB decision condition. Second, the probability of each coding mode and coding depth being chosen as the best ones are combined with AZBs to derive the probability-based early termination condition. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can improve the average coding speed by 74.95% with a 0.26% increase in BDBR.
