Fast H.264 Inter-Prediction Mode Decision Based on Macroblock Inner Complexity

摘要：

The H.264 standard achieves much higher codingefficiency than the MPEG-4 standard,due to itsimproved inter-and intra-prediction modes at theexpense of higher computational complexity.Motionestimation is allowed to use seven kinds of block sizesto improve the rate-distortion performance.This newfeature has achieved significant coding gain comparedto coding a macroblock using fixed block size.However,motion estimation is computational intensivewith complexity increasing linearly to the number ofallowed block sizes.In order to reduce the complexity,a fast inter-prediction mode decision with macroblockInner Complexity is proposed in this paper.Theanalysis results show that the speed improvement ofour proposed algorithm over the primitive algorithm isabout 10％ to 24％ times but with little qualitydegradation.
