Abstract
A new faster block-matching algorithm (BMA)
named SSC-APDS is presented by subsampling search
candidates in adjustable partial distortion search
(APDS). Firstly APDS is modified to visit about half
points of all search candidates by taking subsampling
on them, using a spiral-scanning path with one skip.
Two selected candidates that have minimal and second
minimal block distortion measures are obtained. Then
a fine-tune step is taken around them to find the best
one, while at most 8 more candidates were required.
Experimental results show that the SSC-APDS can
maintain its MSE performance very close to that of the
APDS with higher speedup ratio. Moreover, the wider
the search window is, the better SSC-APDS performs.
