cost value

English to German Tech/Engineering Patents Bewegungscodierung

The Motion estimation block then selects each of the possible
coding modes one after the other, in turn, and performs motion estimation in order to identify a best match for the
macroblock in the reference frame, on the basis of the selected coding mode and the pixel values of the macroblock to
be coded. Each best-match is associated with an overall cost value, for example, a linear combination of the sum of absolute differences between the pixel values in the macroblock under examination and the best matching region in the reference
frame, and an estimated number of bits required to code the mode and represent motion vectors
