Disclosed is an H.264 decoder equipped with multiple operation units, and a method for decoding compressed image data using same. The decoder comprises a plurality of operation units that successively perform a Variable Length Decoding (VLD) operation, an Inverse Transform & DeQuantization (ITDQ) operation, and an intra PREDiction & inter PREDiction (PRED) operation with respect to a macroblock for which each operation unit is to perform a decoding operation, on receiving information on a macroblock, for which each operation unit is to carry out the decoding operation, with reference to a synchronization information storage unit. When the VLD, ITDQ, and PRED operations have been completed with respect to all macroblocks, the synchronization information storage unit is initialized, and the multiple operation units perform Deblocking Filter (DF) operations with respect to macroblocks for which the operation units are to carry out the DF operations respectively, and then, complete decoding of compressed image data currently received.

Disclosed is a method for interpolating chroma signals while minimizing the calculation overhead. To this end, multiplication requiring a large operation is removed when obtaining a fractional-pel value through chroma interpolation, and a simple linear interpolation method is used in order to reduce the number of operations including addition, subtraction, etc. In this way, it is possible to considerably reduce the operation amount for an ME and an MC which normally consume more than about 30% of H.264 system processing power.

Disclosed is a method for extracting a region-of-interest of a user in a multimedia mobile terminal. The method includes: setting a search region in an input picture input to the multimedia mobile terminal on a screen picture-to-screen picture basis, and extracting a group of boundary of a region-of-interest based on a brightness difference between the set search region and an environment around the set search region; determining boundary coordinates of the region-of-interest through learning during a predetermined frame among the extracted group of boundary coordinate candidates; and enlarging the region-of-interest having the determined boundary coordinates, and displaying the enlarged region-of-interest. As a result, a region the user is most interested in or pays more attention to than other regions on a screen is automatically extracted. Accordingly, it is possible for users to view pictures in such an efficient manner as to provide the users with an even better experience and understanding during viewing.

A method and apparatus for accessing a memory for processing moving pictures, which loads data from a frame buffer of an external memory, and uses a motion prediction technique. The method includes the steps of: loading, from the frame buffer, pixels of a relevant block of 8×8 size and extra pixel data necessary for an inter prediction while performing the inter prediction of a block of an 8×8 size following division of a macroblock, storing the pixels of the relevant block size of 8×8 and the extra pixel data in an internal cache memory. The stored pixels of the relevant block size of 8×8 and the stored extra pixel data are used; and then the stored pixels of the relevant block size of 8×8 and the stored extra pixel data stored in the cache memory are re-used during an inter prediction of the relevant block size of 8×8 and sub-blocks.

Disclosed is a selective frame error concealment method for a moving picture frame, the method including the steps of determining if an erroneous frame corresponds to one among a predetermined number of frames received after an I frame when the erroneous frame is received during reception of moving picture frames, determining if the number of consecutive erroneous frames is greater than a threshold value when the erroneous frame does not correspond to one among the predetermined number of frames received after the I frame, using an error concealment technique when the number of consecutive erroneous frames is equal to or less than the threshold value; and displaying a frame, which has been received without error before the erroneous frame, until receiving a new I frame, either when the erroneous frame corresponds to one among the predetermined number of frames received after the I frame, or when the number of consecutive erroneous frames is greater than the threshold value.

A deblocking filtering method for image data and a deblocking filter. According to the deblocking filtering method for image data and the deblocking filter, when computation of Boundary Strength (BS) values for each boundary based on one of horizontal and vertical directions from input image data is completed, it is possible to estimate BS values for each boundary based on a direction different from the currently selected direction by using the computed BS values. Further, deblocking filtering is performed based on corresponding directions according to the estimated values, so that the deblocking filtering can be completely performed with only a BS value of boundaries based on a selected one direction. Consequently, a BS value computation process necessarily required in a deblocking filtering process can be considerably reduced, and thus time required in the operation process of a deblocking filter can also be considerably reduced.
