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...
The prediction step is a very important part of hybrid video codecs for effectively compressing video sequences. While existing video codecs predict either in temporal or in spati...
— Video encoding to yield a decoder-friendly H.264 bit stream that consumes less decoding power yet with little coding efficiency degradation is investigated in this work. The e...
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 ...
In the latest video coding standard H.264, intra frame prediction is employed to reduce the blocks’ spatial correlation. In this paper, a new algorithm is proposed to improve th...
