Abstract :
A novel motion estimation algorithm that contains edge matching and block matching is presented. The edge matching reduces candidates for the block matching that performs accurate searching. Thus, the two-phase procedure speeds up motion estimation. As a result, edge-matching first block-matching last algorithm (EFBLA) may significantly save the computation load by 93.9%.
