Abstract :
Motion estimation is a key issue in video coding. In very low bitrate applications, the amount of the side information for the motion field represents an important portion of the total bitrate. This paper presents a joint motion estimation, segmentation and coding technique, which tries to reduce the motion side-information while providing a similar or smaller prediction error when compared to more classical motion estimation techniques
