METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR INTER PREDICTION USING MOTION VECTOR CANDIDATE BASED ON TEMPORAL MOTION PREDICTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18746655 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR INTER PREDICTION USING MOTION VECTOR CANDIDATE BASED ON TEMPORAL MOTION PREDICTION

The patent application describes a method for enhancing image encoding/decoding efficiency through inter prediction.

• Deriving reference motion information related to a unit in a current picture
• Performing motion compensation for the unit using the derived reference motion information

Potential Applications: - Video encoding and decoding technologies - Multimedia streaming services - Video surveillance systems

Problems Solved: - Improving image quality in video compression - Reducing data transmission bandwidth requirements
