Motion Estimation (ME) plays an important role in video compression. In Block Matching (BM) based ME approach, Exhaustive search algorithm (ES) is the initial algorithm which finds the Motion Vector (MV) through Mean Absolute Difference values for all macro blocks of the search window. But the computations required is more. Recently, several fast BM algorithms like diamond search, Three step search,...
