Motion estimation is an important component in video
compression schemes which impacts the encoder performance
and the quality of the reconstructed video sequence.
Block-based techniques are the most popular among the
several motion estimation techniques used in practice due
to their simplicity allowing efficient hardware implementations.
The quality of motion predicted frame and the speed
of motion vector computation are the primary measures of
performance of motion estimation schemes. The video compression
standards only specify the syntax of the bitstream
and not any specifics of the motion estimation techniques.
Thus, the knowledge of the workings and performance of
commonly used motion estimation schemes would facilitate
development of better schemes or choosing a particular one
for a given application. This paper presents the results
of performance evaluation of combinations of several commonly
used block-based motion estimation algorithms and
distortion measures.
