Abstract

본 논문에서는 십자패턴과 육각패턴을 이용한 고속 블록 정합 동작 예측 기법을 제안한다. 블록 기반 탐색에서 전역 탐색방법이 가장 좋은 동작벡터를 찾지만, 탐색영역 내의 모든 전을 검색하기 때문에 많은 시간을 필요로 하게 된다. 본 방법은 대부분의 동영상에서 동작벡터가 블록의 중심 부근에 집중적으로 분포함을 착안하여 십자패턴으로 중앙을 우선 탐색한 다음 움직임이 큰 동작벡터를 육각패턴을 사용하여 찾는다. 실험결과, 본 방법은 기존의 탐색방법보다 화질과 탐색시간에서 대부분의 경우에 좋은 성능을 보임을 알 수 있다. In this paper, we propose a fast block-matching motion estimation method using the cross pattern and the hexagonal pattern. For the block-matching motion estimation method, full search finds the best motion estimation, but it requires huge search time because it has to check every search point within the search window. The proposed method makes use of the fact that most of motion vectors lie near the center of block. The proposed method first uses the cross pattern to search near the center of block, and then uses the hexagonal pattern to search larger motion vectors. Experimental results show that our method is better than recently proposed search algorithms in terms of mean-square error performance and required search time.
