A METHOD, AN APPARATUS AND A COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR ESTIMATING MOTION BETWEEN FRAMES OF A VIDEO SEQUENCE

摘要

Various embodiments provide a method for estimating motion between frames of a video sequence, the method including: determining a first intermediate motion vector relating to a frame portion of a first frame, the motion vector representing motion of the frame portion of the first frame to a second frame in a first temporal direction; and determining a second intermediate motion vector relating to another frame portion of the first frame, the additional motion vector representing motion of the other frame portion of the first frame to a third frame, the third frame being in an opposite temporal direction from the first frame as the second frame; and determining a motion vector relating to the frame portion of the first frame using the first intermediate motion vector and the second intermediate motion vector.
