dc.description.abstract | We present and compare methods for choosing
motion vectors for block-based motion-compensated video
coding. The primary focus is on videophone and video-
conferencing applications, where low bit rates are neces-
sary, where motion is usually limited, and where the amount
of computation is also limited. In a typical block-based
motion-compensated video coding system, motion vectors
are transmitted along with a lossy encoding of the resid-
uals. As the bit rate decreases, the proportion required
to transmit the motion vectors increases. We provide ex-
perimental evidence that choosing motion vectors explic-
itly to minimize rate (including motion vector coding), sub-
ject to implicit constraints on distortion, yields better rate-
distortion tradeo s than minimizing some measure of pre-
diction error. Minimizing a combination of rate and distor-
tion yields further improvements. Although these explicit-
minimization schemes are computationally intensive, they
provide invaluable insight which we use to develop practi-
cal algorithms. We show that minimizing a simple heuristic
function of the prediction error and the motion vector code-
length results in rate-distortion performance comparable to
explicit-minimization schemes while being computationally
feasible. Experimental results are provided for coders that
operate within the H.261 standard. | |
