چکیده

Fast motion estimation technique plays a very important part in video compression standard. In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm using octagon-based search (OCTBS) pattern for fast block motion estimation. The proposed OCTBS algorithm can find motion vector with fewer search points than the diamond search (DS) algorithm. The speedup gain of the OCTBS method over the DS algorithm is more striking for finding large motion vectors. Experimental results justify the performance of the OCTBS algorithm compared with several other popular search algorithms.

Adaptive search area for fast motion estimation

In this paper a new method for determining the search area for motion estimation algorithm based on block matching is suggested. In the proposed method the search area is adaptively found for each block of a frame. This search area is similar to that of the full search (FS) algorithm but smaller for most blocks of a frame. Therefore, the proposed algorithm is analogous to FS in terms of reg...

A New Fast Block Motion Algorithm Based on Octagon and Triangle Search Patterns for H.264/AVC

The block motion estimation process is an integral and important part in the current video coding standards. However, the current algorithms for the block motion estimation process either have a large computational complexity, or have a poor accuracy. The UMHexagonS algorithm is recommended for the implementation of H.264 for its relatively good performance. In this paper, a new fast block moti...

Harmonics Estimation in Power Systems using a Fast Hybrid Algorithm

In this paper a novel hybrid algorithm for harmonics estimation in power systems is proposed. The estimation of the harmonic components is a nonlinear problem due to the nonlinearity of phase of sinusoids in distorted waveforms. Most researchers implemented nonlinear methods to extract the harmonic parameters. However, nonlinear methods for amplitude estimation increase time of convergence. Hen...
