IMAGE ENCODING METHOD AND EQUIPMENT FOR IMPLEMENTING THE METHOD

摘要

The invention proposes a method for encoding a first image in a set of images, in which the first image is cut into blocks, each block being encoded according to one from a plurality of encoding modes comprising at least one temporal correlation prediction encoding mode using a plurality of images from the set of images. The method comprises, for a current block of the first image: determining a first motion estimation vector of the current block, determining a value of a visual distortion metric for a temporal correlation prediction encoding mode, the visual distortion metric using a distance between a first temporal prediction vector of the current block pointing to the second image and the first motion estimation vector of the current block, and using the value of the visual distortion metric to encode the current block.
