Adaptive Selection of Motion Estimation Block Size for Rate-Distortion Optimization
نویسندگان
چکیده
The employment of the Variable Block size motion estimation technique introduces a new optimization issue for the motion compensated transform coding. An increase in bit rate allocation is necessary to accommodate VBS motion vectors. An algorithm for adaptive selection of motion estimation block size is proposed for R-D optimal motion estimation. It avoids reduction in the block size in visually irrelevant areas. Improvement in R-D performance is obtained at reduced complexity.

New adaptive interpolation schemes for efficient meshbased motion estimation
Motion estimation and compensation is an essential part of existing video coding systems. The mesh-based motion estimation (MME) produces smoother motion field, better subjective quality (free from blocking artifacts), and higher peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) in many cases, especially at low bitrate video communications, compared to the conventional block matching algorithm (BMA). Howev...

متن کاملRate-distortion optimization between the hierarchical variable block size motion estimation and motion sequence coding
Recently, a variable block size(VBS) motion estimation technique has been employed to improve the performance of the motion compensated transform coding(MCTC). This technique allows larger blocks to be used when smaller blocks provide little gain, saving the bit rates, especially for areas containing more complex motion. However, the employment of the VBS motion estimation technique addresses a...
