Abstract
We present an efficient computation constrained block-based motion vector estimation algorithm for low bit rate video coding that offers good tradeoffs between motion estimation distortion and number of computations. A reliable predictor determines the search origin. An efficient search pattern exploits structural constraints within the motion field. A flexible cost measure used to terminate the search allows simultaneous control of the motion estimation distortion and the computational cost. Experimental results demonstrate the viability of the proposed algorithm in low bit rate video coding applications, achieving essentially the same levels of rate-distortion performance and subjective quality as that of the full search algorithm when used by the UBC H.263+ video coding reference software. However the proposed motion estimation algorithm provides substantially higher encoding speed as well as graceful computational degradation capabilities.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
