For stationary or quasi-stationary frames of a video sequence, traditional block matching algorithms (BMA) will easily lead the search to be trapped into a local minimum. In this ...
A method for efficiently selecting the operating modes within a block-based multi-mode video compression system is described. For a given image region, the optimum combination of ...

Multi-reference frame motion estimation improves the accuracy of motion compensation in video compression, but it also dramatically increases computational complexity. Based on tr...
Three-dimensional (3-D) subband/wavelet coding using a motion compensated temporal filter (MCTF) is emerging as a very effective structure for highly scalable video coding. Most p...
Sub-pixel motion compensation plays an important role in compression efficiency within modern video codecs such as MPEG2, MPEG4 and H.264. Sub-pixel motion compensa tion is implem...
