Abstract

This paper proposes an efficient motion compensation algorithm for video sequences with brightness variations. In the proposed algorithm, the brightness variation parameters are estimated and local motions are compensated. To detect the frame with large brightness variations. we employ the frame classification based on the cross entropy between histograms of two successive frames, which can reduce the computational redundancy. Simulation results show that the proposed method yields a higher peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) than the conventional methods, with a low computational load, when the video scene contains large brightness changes.

본 논문은 밝기 변화가 심한 비디오 시퀀스에 대해 효율적인 움직임 보상 알고리즘을 제안한다 제안한 알고리즘에서는 화면간의 밝기 변화 변수들을 추정하고 지역적인 움직임 보상을 수행한다. 밝기 변화가 심한 화면을 검출하기 위해 화면간의 히스토그램의 크로스 엔트로피를 계산하여 밝기 변화가 심한 화면을 그렇지 않은 화면과 나누어 불필요한 계산량을 줄였다. 밝기 변화가 심한 비디오 시퀀스에 대한 실험결과 제안한 알고리즘은 기존의 알고리즘에 비해 적은 계산량으로 높은 PSNR (peak signal to noise ratio) 성능을 나타내었다.
