Claim One:
1. A system for encoding, the system comprising: an interface configured to receive a video signal including original pictures in a video sequence; and a processor configured to: generate target perceptual representations from received original pictures, select reference perceptual representations from a plurality of reference perceptual representations of pictures, determine perceptual-reference representation motion vector information from the target perceptual representations and the reference perceptual representations, wherein the perceptual-representation motion vector information corresponds to the entire received original picture of the reference pictures, encode the determined perceptual-representation motion vector information as data, and store the target perceptual representations with the plurality of reference perceptual representations of pictures, select reference pictures from a plurality of reference pictures to process independent of the perceptual-representation motion vector data, and apply the perceptual-representation motion vector data to the selected reference pictures to generate a motion compensated representation of the original pictures, wherein the processor is configured to generate the target perceptual representations by generating spatial detail maps for pixel values of the original pictures, determining sign information of the generated spatial detail maps, determining absolute value information of the generated spatial detail maps, and processing the determined sign information and the determined absolute value information to generate the target perceptual representations.
