Abstract :
In this paper, we propose a fast lossless multi-resolution motion estimation algorithm in shift-invariant wavelet domain by using wavelet matching error characteristic based partial distortion elimination (MR-WMEC-PDE). Due to its multi-resolution nature, the proposed approach can be applied to scalable video coding. The proposed algorithm can achieve the same estimate accuracy as full search algorithm (FSA), while needing much less computation requirement than FSA
