[Mp4-tech] performance comparison between open loop and closedloopmotion estimation

[배태면]

Dear Gary,
Yes, I’m just considering the encoder side without changing the decoder
side.
The objective of the using the original picture as the reference frame is
parallelizing the encoding structure in designing h.264 hardware.
Sincerely,
Tae Meon Bae

If I'm not mistaken, I think B.G. Kim may be talking about a different
subject.
As I understand it, T.M. Bae is referring only to the motion estimation
being done in an "open loop" fashion.
B.G. Kim seems to refer to a drift between the decoder and the encoder's
model of the decoding process -- this is a different subject -- that is
about motion compensation rather than motion estimation.
As I understand it, T.M. Bae is still planning for the encoder to use the
decoded reference picture in the motion compensation process once the
motion vectors are obtained (either using the original reference picture in
the "open loop" case or the decoded approximation of that picture in the
"closed loop" case).  The resdual difference would still be computed in the
encoder based on the decoded approximation of the reference picture data,
so there should not be any problem with rate control, R-D optimization,
etc.  The only thing affected would be the quality of the motion vectors
that are selected.
The case that B.G. Kim is discussing sounds more like what is often done in
a configuration called "MCTF".
Best Regards,
Gary Sullivan

Yes, what I want to know is the paper or JVT documents that show the
performance of each method.
I guess the performance gap between “open loop motion estimation” and
“closed loop motion estimation” may be small if the target bit-rate is
high.
Where can I find the previous researches related with this issue?

That may not be wrong ! You can do that. But several mismatches  from the
decode side can be caused.
If the obtained MVs are very similar, there will not be serious in decoder.
Otherwise, hum....
Also there will be problems in rate control, RD optimzation and so on,
becsuase of big mismatch from the decoder side.
If you remove the closed reconstruction part, you may speed-tp the encoding
system. But you should consider a performance
of the decoder side.
Best regards

Yes, original picture cannot be used as reference picture in decoder side.
But it could be used in searching motion vector, even though reconstructed
picture is still used as reference picture in decoder side.
Is it a wrong idea?

Hello!
That's not performance problem. In decoder side, 
you can't use an original picture as a reference picture, but only 
a reconstructed picture for motion compensation.
Why are you saying about open-loop structure?

Dear experts,
I'm optimizing h.264 encoder, and I have a question about motion estimation.
Generally open loop motion estimation shows lower performance than closed
motion estimation. Is there any JVT document or paper related with this
issue? I guess that the performance gap may be small if the target bit rate
is high enough. Is this assumption right? 
Thanks in advance.
Sincerely,
Tae Meon Bae
