In this paper, a fast motion estimation algorithm for variable block-size by using a motion vector merging procedure is proposed for H.264. The motion vectors of adjacent small bl...
: The coding gain of the H.264/AVC video encoder mainly comes from the new incorporated prediction tools. However, their enormous computation and ultrahigh memory bandwidth are the...
In this paper, we propose a fast reverse motion estimation algorithm with efficient mode decision for reverse transcoding of H.264 bitstream. By analyzing the motion vectors and m...
The emerging H.264 advanced video coding (H.264/AVC) standard achieves significant improvement in coding efficiency compared with previous standards such as MPEG-2 and H.263. On...
In the upcoming video coding standard, MPEG-4 AVC/JVT/H.264, motion estimation is allowed to use multiple references and multiple block sizes to improve the rate-distortion perfor...
