Abstract:
PURPOSE: Encoding/decoding apparatus and method using DCT/DST selectively are provided to increase a compression ratio of an image block by performing inter/intra prediction between images for a fixed size blocks and then conversion and quantization. CONSTITUTION: A first conversion unit(220) converts a target image into a first conversion coefficient using DCT(Discrete Cosine Transform). A second conversion unit(230) converts the target image into a second conversion coefficient using DST(Discrete Sine Transform). A conversion method decision unit(260) selects the first or second conversion coefficients as a conversion coefficients for the target image. The first conversion unit creates a first decoding image for the target image based on the first conversion coefficient. The second conversion unit creates a decoding image for the target image based on the second conversion coefficient.

Abstract:
A coding/decoding apparatus using DCT(Discrete Cosine Transform) coefficient scanning adaptive according to pixel similarity and a method thereof are provided to enhance the compression rate of intra encoding by applying the most efficient scanning method according to pixel similarity and coding or decoding images. A coding apparatus using DCT coefficient scanning comprises a mode selection part(10), an intra prediction part(20), a DCT and quantization part(30), and an entropy coding part(40). The mode selection part(10) selects the optimum mode for intra prediction. The intra prediction part(20) executes intra prediction for an inputted image, based on the selected mode. The DCT and quantization part(30) executes DCT and quantization for the residual coefficients outputted from the intra prediction part(20). Using a certain scanning mode determined according to the pixel similarity of the residual coefficients, the entropy coding part(40) performs entropy coding for the quantized DCT coefficients.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for encoding and decoding color video scalability are provided to prevent unnecessary data amount from increasing when storing or transmitting encoded information, improve encoding efficiency by not doubly encoding the same information as already encoded information, prevent the same information as already decoded information from being doubly decoded and improve decoding efficiency. A color video scalability encoding method includes encoding a color image block of an improvement stratum by using lower stratum information. The encoding generates a color sign block pattern value according to quantization coefficient values of a residual color image block by using the lower stratum information. A color video scalability decoding method includes determining presence/absence of an improvement stratum having a different color format from that of a lower stratum in a received bit stream, and decoding a color image block of the improvement stratum by using the lower stratum information.

An apparatus for encoding and decoding by using a converter alternatively according to the correlation of residual coefficients and a method thereof are provided to select a converter with a highest compression rate by perform an RD(Rate-Distortion) cost optimization using DCT(Discrete Cosine Transform) and DST(Discrete Sine Transform) in generating a quantized conversion coefficient through converters and quantizers after prediction between images or within the images in a predetermined size of block, thereby improving the compression rate of an image block. A first converter(31-34) performs the DCT(Discrete Cosine Transform) in a block unit, first quantization, first inverse quantization and IDCT(Interger-approximated Discrete Cosine Inverse Transform) of residual coefficients which are generated after performing prediction between images or within the images. A second converter(35-38) performs the DST(Discrete Sine Transform) in the block unit, second quantization, second inverse quantization, and IDST(Interger-approximated Discrete Sine Inverse Transform) of the residual coefficients. A selection unit(39) performs RD Cost(Rate-Distortion Cost) to select a converter with a high compression rate by block, and a display unit(40) displays converter information selected by the selection unit on a corresponding flag bit in a macro block unit.

A NAL(Network Abstraction Layer) unit type display method, a bit stream transmission apparatus according to the same, and a redundant slice coding apparatus are provided to indicate that a current NAL unit is a redundant coded picture by using No. 19 of a NAL unit type when an auxiliary coded picture is not used. A header parsing unit(311) includes a NAL unit header in which a NAL unit type indicating a redundant coded picture is recorded, parses the NAL unit header of a coded bit stream, and judges whether a NAL unit is a redundant coded picture. When the NAL unit is the redundant coded picture as a result of the header parsing unit(311), a transmission determining unit(312) determines whether to transmit the NAL unit according to a state of a network in which the NAL unit is transmitted.
Abstract:
An apparatus and a method for multi-stage conversion are provided to use multi-dimension conversion or multi-stage conversion to raise the compression efficiency of energy and improve the coding performance. Input image data are DCT(Discrete Cosine Transform)-converted, and R blocks are selected from the DCT-converted image data. In selected R blocks, transform coefficients of the same frequency are one-dimensionally arranged. The one-dimensionally arranged transform coefficients are one-dimensionally converted. The R blocks are selected from the DCT-converted image data in a horizontal direction, a vertical direction, or a diagonal direction.
Abstract:
A redundant slice coding method based on PD(Polyphase Down-sampling) and a CODEC using the method are provided to adaptively vary the quantity of transmitted DCT(Discrete Cosine Transform) coefficients using the PD based redundant slice coding method to improve error resilience of scalable video coding and coding efficiency. A PD based redundant slice encoder includes a PD coding unit(110), a quantizer(120), and a reference block generator(130). The PD coding unit polyphase-down-samples a residual block corresponding to a current block and a predicted block to reconstruct the residual block into four regions. The quantizer transforms and quantizes at least one of the reconstructed regions. The reference block generator generates a reference picture based on a value obtained by inversely transforming and inversely quantizing the quantized region and then inversely polyphase down-sampling the region.
