Abstract

In this paper, we notice that the original NTSS algorithm can be proposed as the NTSS-3 Level algorithm by the multi-resolution technique. The fast block matching algorithm affects the speed by the patten combination and this paper proposes the block matching algorithm in different levels by multi-resolution technique, quite different from the original NTSS Patten. The block matching algorithm requires the multi-candidate to reduce the occurrence of low-image quality by the local minima problem. The simulation result compared to FS shows search speed 16 times quicker, and the PSNR 0.11-0.12[dB] gets improved Image quality compared to the original fast block matching algorithm NTSS, and the speed is improved up to 0.1 times for improved image by the search point portion.

본 논문에서는 기존 NTSS 알고리즘을 다중해상도(MR : Multiple Resolution)기법을 이용하여 NTSS-3 레벨 알고리즘으로 제안하였다. 고속 블록정합 알고리즘은 패턴 방식에 따라 속도에 많은 영향을 미치는데 본 논문에서는 기존 NTSS의 패턴 방식과 다른 다중해상도 기법을 이용한 레벨에 따른 블록정합 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 블록 정합알고리즘에서 국부최소화 문제(Local minima problem)로 발생하는 화질 저하를 개선하기 위해 MC(Multiple Candidate)라는 다중후보를 이용하였다. 실험 결과 제안한 기법을 FS와 비교하면 16배의 탐색 속도론 나타내었고 기존 고속 블록 정합 알고리즘인 NTSS 방식에 비교 할 때 PSNR값에 있어서는 0.11-0.12(dB) 화질이 개선되었으며 속도 면에서도 0.1배 향상되었고 탐색점 대비 화질개선이 우수함을 나타내었다.
