Abstract

Instructions embedded on a computer-readable medium, when executed on one or more computer devices, improve video coding performance while using a merge mode in motion estimation. The instructions comprise instructions to perform one or more refinement searches on a plurality of candidate regions of a current frame. The instructions also comprise instructions to determine one or more distortion values based, at least in part, on reduced candidate regions and instructions to code motion data based, at least in part, on the one or more refinement searches.
