The present invention relates to a method of encoding a sequence of pictures divided into blocks of data, said encoding method comprising: a residual error block from a deviation between a candidate area and a current block included in a current picture using a prediction function Calculating an entropy of a residual error block, computing an overall error between the candidate region and the current block, estimating power consumption of a video processing device adapted to perform the prediction function. Computing a rate distortion value based on entropy, total error, and estimated power consumption of the video processing device, and selecting a prediction function according to the rate distortion value, using the set of prediction functions as a candidate Applying the preceding steps to the set of regions. |
