Abstract

A new motion estimation/compensation scheme for TV coding is proposed in this paper. This scheme is based on predictions of inter-block motion information using minimum absolute difference block matching an hence substantially increases the searching and computation efficiency. A comparison is also made with the "optimal" full motion searching scheme for a standard test sequence.
