Abstract: A hierarchical motion prediction apparatus and method. The hierarchical motion prediction method splits a current frame and a reference frame into pixel groups, changes a pixel location of each pixel group, and selects one pixel, and thus resolutions of the current frame and reference frame are reduced. A motion vector of a down-sampled current block is obtained based on a down-sampled current frame and reference frame, and is expanded to a motion vector of an original resolution based on a down sampling rate.
