Digital video sequence processing method for e.g. computer, involves selecting location for writing pixel values of given memory block among set of locations of cache memory using labels of memory blocks stored at locations

摘要

The method involves receiving a field of movement vectors, where each vector associates a pixel macroblock of one image to a memory block assembly of another image. Pixel values of memory blocks of the assembly are read using a cache memory. A count of number of macroblocks is stored in a label corresponding to the memory block. A location for writing pixel values of the given memory block is selected among a set of locations (38-1p-38-4p) of the cache memory using the labels of the memory blocks stored at the locations, during reading of the pixel values of the given memory block. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a computer program comprising instructions for implementing a video sequence processing method (2) a device for processing a video sequence of images sub-divided into pixel macroblocks (3) a memory comprising a set of memory zones.
