METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SUB-PIXEL INTERPOLATION FOR UPDATING OPERATION IN VIDEO CODING

摘要

In the video encoding and decoding of digital video sequence having a prediction operation and an update operation, the update operation includes interpolation to generate energy distributed interpolation. Prediction is carried out on each block based on motion compensated prediction with respect to a reference frame and a motion vector in order to provide a corresponding block of prediction residues. Updating is carried out on a reference video frame based on motion compensated prediction with respect to the block of prediction residues and a reverse direction of the motion vector. The interpolation filter is determined based on the motion vector and the sample values of sub-pixel are interpolated using the block prediction residues by treating the sample values outside the block of prediction residues to be zero. Interpolation is performed along horizontal direction and vertical direction separately using one dimensional interpolation filter.
