摘要:
Motion estimation (ME) consumes the major part of time and power in both video compression standards - HEVC and H.264. This paper evaluates the impact of fractional motion estimation (FME) for HD videos if applied along with Signature Based FME algorithm, which targets Full Search quality. The paper compares the quality of results of Fractional FME (FFME) vs Enhanced FME (EFME) assuming they have similar computation complexity, hence power consumption. The main purpose is improving the image quality for the same power consumption or equivalently reducing cost and power for the same quality in handheld devices performing Motion Estimation. The algorithms used are an extension to one of the most efficient algorithms - HMDS.
