Abstract:
PURPOSE: An image encoding/decoding method and a device thereof are provided to reduce the bit numbers needed for encoding the division information of a target encoding block. CONSTITUTION: A decoder acquires the division information of a neighbor block to a target decoding block when the use of prediction division information is determined(S220,S230). The decoder predicts the division information of the target decoding block by an acquired neighbor block division information(S240). When the target decoding block is divided by the prediction division information, the decoder utilizes the prediction division information as the division information of the target decoding block(S250,S260).
Abstract:
PURPOSE: An image encoding and decoding method and a device thereof are provided to set a quantization parameter of an encoding target block, thereby performing encoding and decoding. CONSTITUTION: A quantization parameter determining unit receives block information of a decoding target block. The quantization parameter determining unit calculates a quantization parameter based on block information of the decoding target block(640). The block information is at least one of size information and depth information of the decoding target block.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: An apparatus and method for coding and decoding images using a skip coding are provided to removing an image noise, a blocking phenomenon, a quantization error, and aliasing by filtering a restored coding target or previously restored image. CONSTITUTION: A filtering unit(110) filters a restoration signal which is restored before a coding target signal. A predictive signal generator(120) generates a predictive signal of the coding target signal through the filtered restoration signal. A skip coding unit(130) sets the generated predictive signal as the restoration signal of the coding target signal. An indicator(140) shows the skip coding of the coding target signal.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: An apparatus and method for coding and decoding images using skip coding are provided to improve coding and decoding performance by omitting a residual signal generated by a difference between an original image signal and a predictive signal from a coding target. CONSTITUTION: An image coding apparatus filters a restoration signal which is restored before a coding target signal(410). The image coding apparatus generates a predictive signal of the coding target signal(420). The image coding apparatus sets the generated predictive signal as the restoration signal of the coding target signal. The image coding apparatus generates a residual signal based on the difference between the coding target signal and the predictive signal(430). The image coding apparatus does not code the residual signal(440).
Abstract:
PURPOSE: An apparatus for compensating a low frequency band audio signal based on listener characteristics is provided to reproduce a high quality of audio signal based on the listening characteristics of a listener. CONSTITUTION: A frequency band division unit(110) divides a frequency band of an audio signal into plural sub-frequency bands, and an auditory characteristic information storage unit(140) stores auditory characteristic information on auditory frequency range of a listener and minimum recognition volume information for an audio signal of each sub frequency band of a listener. A low band compensating unit(150) controls the volume of an audio signal within an auditory frequency range based on auditory characteristic information to be maintained over the minimum recognition volume information.

A record space information gaining unit(130) gains the record space information toward the record space of sound source signals. A sound source location information gaining unit(120) gains the sound source location information of the sound source signals. An encoder(140) generates a object-based audio contents by encoding one among a plurality of object audio signals, the record space information and the sound source location information at least.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: An inter-object regeneration relation and volume information storage/interpretive method and an apparatus thereof are provided, which interpret force/restriction information through numerical formula based on logical/relational operator, add force/restrict efficiently to operation of an object-based audio player. CONSTITUTION: An object-based audio player(101) inputs an audio object information and compulsion/restriction information within object-based audio file(102) to compulsion/restriction information analysis module(103). The force/condition information analysis module interprets the audio object information and force/restrict information. The force/condition information analysis module selects tracks to decode before decoding(104) of an audio object. The force/condition information analysis module adds restriction to replay volume information of the track in a mixing stage(105).

PURPOSE: A method and a device for editing an audio object in a multi-object audio code based on space information are provided to omit a coding process about the edited object using the multi-object bit stream and a down mix signal generated through the coding of the input objects. CONSTITUTION: An object information extractor(210) receives an object bit stream. The object information extractor extracts the object information from the object bit stream. A down mix processor(220) receives the down mix signal. The down mix processor controls the down mix signal using the object edition information and the object information. A bit stream processor(230) edits the object information according to the object edition information. The bit stream processor generates the object bit stream controlled based on the edited object information.
