ABSTRACT:
A method and a device for determining an image shift in an image sequence may be used, for example, to compensate for a camera movement or other image source movement. A plurality of image zones of images are available to determine the shift, with the zone shift of any given image zone from a plurality of image zones being determined from the image data of, for example, consecutive images within any given image zone. A block matching method or a method using block shift information from a block-based coding method is used to determine the zone shift and to determine a reliability for the zone shift determination.
