The notion "block rotation" denotes the operation of exchanging two consecutive sequences of elements uv to vu. There are three already well-known block rotation algorithms called BlockRotation, Juggling and Reversal algorithm. Recently we presented a novel block rotation algorithm called QuickRotation. In this paper we compare QuickRotation to these three known block rotation algorithms. This comparison covers a complexity analysis as well as benchmarking and shows that a switch to QuickRotation is almost always advantageous.

A new implementation of Block Adaptive filter in frequency domain is presented in this paper. Block digital filtering involves the calculation of a block or finite set of filter out put from a block of input values. A fast convergence algorithm of block adaptive filter is developed using Gordar theory and compared with the performance results of Satio algorithm and BLMS algorithm. Form the result we can be shown that the convergence state of given algorithm is not only faster than BLMS algorithm but also the resulting convergence error is less than the convergence error of Satio algorithm.

In this paper an effective block matching algorithm is proposed to find the motion vector. There are two approaches to the estimation of the motion vector in MCC (motion compensated coding), i.e., pel(pixel element) recursive algorithm and block matching algorithm. The search algorithm in this paper is based on the block matching method. The advantage of a proposed algorithm using integral projections is the reduction of the computation time. While the conventional block matching methods have to be computed in 2-dimensional arrays, the proposed algorithm using integral projections can be computed in 1-dimensional arrays. In comparison with conventional block matching methods, a computer simulation shows that though the prediction error increases 0.23 db, it is not detectable for human eyes and the average reduction ratio of computation time obtained from the proposed algorithm is about 3-4.

This paper proposes a block matching algorithm to improve the sub-block matching algorithm that uses partial sub-blocks being a great contribution to the block matching. Unlike the conventional algorithm using the one sub-block group the proposed algorithm uses two sub-block groups. The matching using the small group selects a candidate block to be a good possibility of a similar block with a small computation cost and the additional matching using the large group in the selected block decreases a wrong matching. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm always has good image quality at the same computation cost as compared to the conventional algorithm and it has an outstanding performance at the matching using a few sub-blocks.

In this paper, we present a new cost function for subband block adaptive algorithm and block conjugate gradient algorithm for noise cancellation of acoustic signal. For the cost function, we process the subband signals with data blocks for each subbands and recombine it a whole data block. After these process, the cost function has a quadratic form in adaptive filter coefficients, it guarantees the convergence of the suggested block conjugate gradient algorithm. And the block conjugate gradient algorithm which minimizes the suggested cost function has better performance than the case of full-band block conjugate gradient algorithm, the computer simulation results of noise cancellation show the efficiency of the suggested algorithm.

In this paper, an efficient block matching algorithm which is based on the Block Sum Pyramid Algorithm (BSPA) is presented. The cost of BSPA[1] was reduced in the proposed algorithm by using l2 norm and partial distortion elimination technique. Motion estimation accuracy of the proposed algorithm is equal to that of BSPA. The efficiency of the proposed algorithm was verified by experimental results.

Due to the significant computation of full search in motion estimation, extensive research in fast motion estimation algorithms has been carried out. However, most of the algorithms have the degradation in predicted images compared with the full search algorithm. To reduce an amount of significant computation while keeping the same prediction quality of the full search, we propose a fast block-matching algorithm based on gradient magnitude of reference block without any degradation of predicted image. By using Taylor series expansion, we show that the block matching errors between reference block and candidate block are proportional to the gradient magnitude of matching block. With the derived result, we propose fast full search algorithm with adaptively determined scan direction in the block matching. Experimentally, our proposed algorithm is very efficient in terms of computational speedup and has the smallest computation among all the conventional full search algorithms. Therefore, our algorithm is useful in VLSI implementation of video encoder requiring real-time application.

This paper proposes a modified block matching algorithm which reduces an amount of matching computation by using only pixels contributing greatly to block matching. In consideration of algorithm implementation and additional information, the proposed algorithm divides a matching block into sub-blocks, selects some sub-blocks using their complexities, and execute the block mating with them. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm performs a valid block matching with some sub-blocks.
