Abstract
In this paper, we propose a fast multiple reference frame selection method using neighboring motion vectors and the correlation of inter-mode blocks in H.264 video coding. Using the property that an optimal reference frame has the statistical characteristics, the motion estimation of small Inter-block size is estimated from the motion estimation of the larger Inter-block size. Simulation results show that the proposal method decreased the computations about 91%. Without the sacrifice of coding performance, comparing to the H.264 multiple reference picture coding.
