摘要： A semiconductor device and an image data processing apparatus are capable of easily realizing address control, simplifying a circuit for address control, and easily realizing access to image data while reducing the volumes of pieces of image data of different resolutions in different hierarchies. In the image data processing apparatus, a memory cell array stores pieces of composite data, each containing a piece of pixel data and additional information data, for example, a motion vector associated with the pixel data. A designated pixel data and a motion vector associated with the pixel data are read out and a search region is suitably predicted and set up on the basis of the motion vector, and motion estimation is performed in the search region, for example, by a block matching process. Accordingly, motion estimation can be performed in a small search region equivalent to a large search region having been generally used for motion estimation, to realize high-speed, high-efficient motion estimation and improve the estimation accuracy.

摘要： An NTSC signal is supplied to a first area extracting circuit and a second area extracting circuit. The first area extracting circuit extracts class taps from the NTSC signal. The second area extracting circuit extracts predictive taps from the NTSC signal. The first area extracting circuit extracts pixels in predetermined positions from same phase pixels as a considered pixel. Based on level differences between extracted pixels, a pattern detecting section performs a class categorization. A class code determining section generates class codes based on the result of the class categorization and supplies the generated class codes to a coefficient memory. The coefficient memory outputs pre-stored predictive coefficients based on the class codes to a predictive calculating section. The predictive calculating section performs a sum of product calculation of pixel data as predictive taps received from the first area extracting circuit and the predictive coefficients received from the second area extracting circuit and generates for example a component signal Y with the result of the sum of product calculation.

摘要： The present invention relates to a signal processing apparatus and method, a recording medium, and a program, in which a more preferable class can be easily selected. A region extracting unit 151 extracts a class tap from an input composite video signal, and pattern detecting units 152 to 154 detect patterns for classes by using different predetermined methods. A class-code determining unit 155 determines a class based on information from an evaluation table 156, and a coefficient memory 157 supplies a predictive coefficient corresponding to the class to a predictive computing unit 159. The predictive computing unit 159 performs predictive computing based on a predictive tap supplied from a region extracting unit 158 and the predictive coefficient supplied from the coefficient memory 157, so that a component Y signal is generated and is output therefrom. The present invention can be applied to a television receiver.

摘要： The present invention provides an apparatus for converting image data, including a block extraction unit extracts a class tap from a composite signal. A pixel-location-mode output unit determines a pixel location mode from the extracted class tap, and outputs it to a coefficient memory. A coefficient calculation unit acquires a seed coefficient from a seed coefficient memory to determine a predictive coefficient based on a transform method selection signal input from a designation unit, and stores the result into the coefficient memory. The coefficient memory supplies a predictive coefficient corresponding to the pixel location mode to a predictive calculation unit. A block extraction unit extracts a predictive tap from the composite signal, and outputs the result to the predictive calculation unit. The predictive calculation unit outputs a component signal or a transformed component signal based on the predictive tap and the predictive coefficient.

摘要： The absolute value of the difference between each of the pairs of pixel values of a target pixel and an upper pixel with respect to the target pixel, a pixel that is left-adjacent to the target pixel and an upper pixel with respect to the left-adjacent pixel, the left-adjacent pixel and a lower pixel with respect to the left-adjacent pixel, a pixel that is right-adjacent to the target pixel and an upper pixel with respect to the right-adjacent pixel, and the right-adjacent pixel and a lower pixel with respect to the right-adjacent pixel is obtained. A “1” is assigned if the absolute value of the difference is greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold value whereas a “0” is assigned if the absolute value of the difference is smaller than the predetermined threshold value, forming a pattern having six bits in total.
