Application of Predictive Diamond Searching for Video Coding
Zhong Ji · Systems engineering and electronics · 2002
A ne highly efficient technique used in video coding which is based on predictive motion vector and diamond search is presented. By introducing the predictive motion vector to motion estimation stage in video coding, predictive diamond searching (PDS) is used to get steady and smooth motion field, making full use of the correlation of adjacent blocks. Extensive simulations demonstrate the efficacy of these algorithms, especially when compared to standard video coding techniques based conventional fast block matching algorithm.\;
