چکیده

Motion estimation is the main bottleneck in real-time video coding applications, and the search for fast and effective motion estimation algorithms has been a challenging problem recently. This paper describes a new block-matching algorithm that exploits the spatial and temporal correlations, and proposes an adaptive twolevel multi-mode search algorithm (ATMMS) based on the analysis of the neighboring area surrounding the predicted motion vectors. Compared with the well-know diamond search (DS) algorithm recently proposed, our algorithm is robust and achieves better performance with fewer search points.

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...

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...

Fast motion search with efficient inter-prediction mode decision for H.264

A fast inter-prediction mode decision and motion search algorithm is proposed for the H.264 video coding standard. The multi-resolution motion estimation scheme and an adaptive rate-distortion model are employed with early termination rules to accelerate the search process. With the new algorithm, the amount of computation involved in the motion search can be substantially reduced. Experimental...

A fast multi-resolution block matching algorithm and its LSI architecture for low bit-rate video coding

In this paper, we propose a fast multi-resolution block-matching algorithm (BMA) using multiple motion vector (MV) candidates and spatial correlation in MV fields, called a multi-resolution motion search algorithm (MRMCS). The proposed MRMCS satisfies high estimation performance and efficient LSI implementation. This paper describes the MRMCS with three resolution levels. At the coarsest level,...
