    摘要: An input digital video signal is encoded to produce at least first and second hierarchical data signals which respectively represent a first video signal and a lower resolution video signal. Each pixel data signal of the second hierarchical data signal is calculated as an average of N pixel data signals of the input digital video signal. The second hierarchical data signal is output together with first hierarchical pixel data signals representing only N−1 of the N pixel data signals of the input digital video signal. The first hierarchical pixel data signals may be differential signals produced by subtracting each of the N−1 pixel data signals from the average value of the N pixel data signals. During decoding the Nth pixel data signal is reconstructed from the N−1 pixel data signals and the average value provided as the corresponding second hierarchical pixel signal.

    摘要: A subtraction device subtracts a predicted value generated by a predicting portion from a digital picture signal supplied through an input terminal. The subtraction device generates a difference signal as an output signal. A quantizing portion detects an activity of the difference signal, designates the number of quantizing steps corresponding to the activity, and quantizes the difference signal with the number of quantizing steps. The quantizing portion outputs side information to an output terminal.

    摘要: An input digital information signal is prediction-encoded and thereby difference signals are generated. The difference signals are block segmented. A maximum value and a minimum value of each block are detected. Whether or not the range of levels of the maximum value MAX and the minimum value MIN crosses 0, a mode determining circuit 5 determines a quantizing mode and generates a mode signal MODE that represents the determined quantizing mode. When the range of the levels crosses 0, a first quantizing mode is selected. Otherwise, a second quantizing mode is selected. In the first quantizing mode, the quantizing circuit 6 performs the normal quantizing process. In the second quantizing mode, the quantizing circuit 6 performs a code conversion in such a manner that the number of bits of quantized output data is smaller than that of the normal quantizing process.

    摘要: An image processing device and method, a program, and a recording medium whereby the detection precision of a motion vector by the gradient method is further improved. A counter value computing unit acquires the number of valid pixels, the number of pixels having no gradient in the horizontal direction, and the number of pixels having no gradient in the vertical direction from a valid pixel number counter, a no-horizontal-gradient counter, and a no-vertical-gradient counter, computes the ratio between valid pixels within a computation block and one-sided gradient pixels among the valid pixels, and controls the value of a flag which a flag setting unit sets in accordance with the computation results. The flag setting unit sets the value of a gradient flag, and outputs the gradient flag to the subsequent stage. At the subsequent stage, gradient method computation and vector evaluation processing are executed based on the gradient flag. The above can be applied to a signal processing device for performing frame frequency conversion processing from a 24P signal to a 60P signal.

    摘要: For each pixel in an operation block, an effective pixel determining unit sets a predetermined pixel difference (threshold value) on a time-base pixel difference. When the time-base pixel difference is less than the set predetermined pixel difference, it is determined that the pixel contributes to (or are effective in) motion vector detection, and uses the pixel in the gradient method in the case of performing motion vector detection. When the time-base pixel difference is not less than the set predetermined pixel difference, it is determined that the pixel is regarded as having a possibility to generate irregularity in movement, and the pixel is excluded from the gradient operation in the case of performing motion vector detection. The present invention is applicable to a signal processing apparatus for performing frame frequency conversion from a 24 P signal to a 60 P signal.
