This document proposes a fast inter-mode decision method based on the residual of motion estimation for H.264/AVC. There are 7 different MB modes in inter-mode coding with a SKIP mode, as well as 9 modes of 4 times 4, 8 times 8 and 4 modes of 16 times 16 in intra-mode coding for P-slices coding, which brings drastic computational complexity to the encoder. To solve this problem, we suggest a novel...
Fractional motion estimation (FME) is widely used in video compression standards. In H.264/AVC, the precision of motion vector is down to quarter pixels to improve the coding efficiency. However, FME occupies over 45% of the computation complexity in an H.264 encoder and this high complexity limits the processing capability. In this paper, a single-iteration full search FME is proposed. By the algorithm...
To provide more vivid perception, more and more advanced features, like the 4ktimes2k resolution and the multiview functionality, are emerging for TV. For a multiview video coding (MVC) encoder, motion and disparity estimation (ME/DE) take at least half the hardware requirement. To solve these challenges, a cache-based integer ME/DE algorithm is proposed. With a cache memory as the search window buffer,...
External memory bandwidth is an important issue in system-on-chip (SoC) systems. Especially in high definition (HD) video coding, the bandwidth requirement of off-chip memory is critical in video processing. In recent researches, embedded compression shows high potential on off-chip memory bandwidth reduction. Works about embedded compression have been done for low power applications. However, there...
High Definition (HD) video compression enables vivid reproduction of scenes. However, Motion Estimation (ME) requires large memory capacity and huge memory bandwidth, which are undesirable in many platforms including ASIC and SoC. In this paper, an algorithm and architecture design of cache system and fast ME in HD H.264/AVC are proposed. With the proposed cache system and hardware-oriented fast ME...
3-D video will become one of the most important video technologies in the next generation of television. Due to ultra high data bandwidth requirement for 3-D video, effective compression technology becomes an essential part in the infrastructure. Thus stereo and multiview video coding (MVC) plays a critical role. However, MVC systems require much more computational complexity relative to mono-view...

Multiview video coding (MVC) plays a critical role in 3D-TV systems. However, MVC require much more memory bandwidth and computational complexity relative to mono-view video coding. Therefore, an efficient prediction scheme is necessary for computation reduction. In this paper, a new fast prediction algorithm, computation-free motion estimation (ME) with inter-view mode decision, is proposed. By utilizing...
