HASH-BASED ENCODER DECISIONS FOR VIDEO CODING

摘要

Innovations in encoder-side decisions that use the results of hash-based block matching are presented. For example, some of the innovations relate to ways of building hash tables that include some (but not all) uniform blocks. Other innovations relate to ways of determining motion vector resolution based on results of hash-based block matching. Still other innovations relate to scene change detection, including long-term reference picture selection and picture quality determination during encoding.
