This paper presents a fast algorithm for H.264 fractional motion estimation (ME). In H.264 ME is the most time consuming component. The ME process consists of two stages: integer ...
Fractional motion estimation (FME) is widely used in video compression standards. In H.264/AVC, the precision of motion vector is down to quarter pixels to improve the coding effi...
We modify the multilevel successive elimination algorithm (MSEA) to make it compatible with the motion estimation required for the H.264/AVC video coding standard. The algorithm m...
This paper focuses on the mode decision and motion selection problem when H.264/AVC video streams are transcoded in spatial resolution. A fast downsizing transcoding scheme is dev...
: 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...
