Abstract
In this paper, a fuzzy reasoning based temporal error concealment method is proposed. The basic temporal error concealment is implemented by estimating Motion Vector (MV) of the lost MacroBlock (MB) from its neighboring MVs. Which MV is the most proper one is evaluated by some criteria. Generally, two criteria are widely used, namely Side Match Distortion (SMD) and Sum of Absolute Difference (SAD) of corresponding MV. However, each criterion could only partly describe the status of lost block. To accomplish the judgement more accurately, the two measures are considered together. Thus a refined measure based on fuzzy reasoning is adopted to balance the effects of SMD and SAD. Terms SMD and SAD are regarded as fuzzy input and the term ‘similarity’ as output to complete fuzzy reasoning. Result of fuzzy reasoning represents how the tested MV is similar to the original one. And k-means clustering technique is performed to define the membership function of input fuzzy sets adaptively. According to the experimental results, the concealment based on new measure achieves better performance.
