Extended Successive Elimination Algorithm for Fast Optimal Block Matching Motion Estimation
In this paper, we propose an extended successive elimination algorithm (SEA) for fast optimal block matching motion estimation (ME). By reinterpreting the typical sum of absolute differences measure, we can obtain additional decision criteria whether to discard the impossible candidate motion vectors. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm reduces the computational complexity up to 19.85% on average comparing with the multilevel successive elimination algorithm. The proposed algorithm can be used with other SEA to improve the ME performance
