Interpolation of video compression frames
Video image decompression systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media are disclosed. Some techniques involve accessing a sequence of predicted and bidirectional predicted frames each comprising pixel values arranged in image regions, wherein at least one image region within a bidirectional predicted frame is determined using direct mode prediction based on motion vectors from two or more predicted frames, and wherein at least one such motion vector is scaled by a frame scale fraction of less than zero or greater than one.
1. A video image decompression system including a processor and a decoder, the system accessing a sequence of predicted and bidirectional predicted frames each comprising pixel values arranged in image regions, wherein at least one image region within a bidirectional predicted frame is determined using direct mode prediction based on a motion vector from a predicted frame, and wherein the motion vector is scaled by a frame scale fraction of less than minus one or greater than one.
2. A video image compression system accessing a sequence of predicted and bidirectional predicted frames each comprising pixel values arranged in image regions, wherein at least one image region within a bidirectional predicted frame is determined using direct mode prediction based on motion vectors from two or more predicted frames, and wherein at least one such motion vector is scaled by a frame scale fraction of less than minus one or greater than one.
3. The video image compression system of claim 2 , wherein at least two such motion vectors are scaled by a frame scale fraction of less than −1 or greater than 1.
4. A decoder accessing a sequence of predicted and bidirectional predicted frames each comprising pixel values arranged in image regions, wherein at least one image region within a bidirectional predicted frame is determined using direct mode prediction based on motion vectors from two or more predicted frames, and wherein at least one such motion vector is scaled by a frame scale fraction of less than minus one or greater than one.
5. The decoder of claim 4 , wherein at least two such motion vectors are scaled by a frame scale fraction of less than −1 or greater than 1.
