Abstract

A fast motion-estimation algorithm based on regulated partial block distortions is proposed. The proposed algorithm can obtain very accurate motion vectors with a small computational load. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme provides very close performance to the full search while it is about 6 to 28 times faster than the full search.

본 논문은 비디오 코딩에서 조절된 부분 영상 블럭의 차이값을 이용한 빠른 움직임 추정 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 적은 계산량을 통하여 매우 정확한 움직임 벡터를 구할 수 있다. 실험을 통하여 제안된 방법은 전역 검색 방법(Full Search)가 매우 유사한 정확도를 보인 반면, 전역 검색 방법 보다 6에서 28배의 속도 향상을 보여주고 있다.
