    摘要: Methods and apparatuses are provided relating to the encoding of data, such as, e.g., images, video, etc. For example, certain methods include processing at least a portion of data using a plurality of different quantization functions to produce a plurality of corresponding quantized portions of data, and selectively outputting one of the quantized portions of data based on at least one threshold value. The method may also include dividing initial data into a plurality of portions and classifying the portion of data based on at least one classification characteristic. Here, for example, there may be a threshold value that is associated with the classification characteristic. Additional syntax may be adopted to enable considerably higher compression efficiency by allowing several alternative motion prediction cases. A high efficiency time stamp independent Direct Mode is also provided which considers spatial motion vector prediction as well with stationary temporal predictors.

    摘要: A system identifies video data to be encoded as well as multiple display regions associated with a particular video display type. Each of the multiple display regions is associated with a different portion of an image associated with the video data. The video data is encoded such that the encoded video data includes information regarding the multiple display regions. Each of the multiple display regions has an associated display region identifier. Additionally, the system may identify an active region of the video data. The active region may be located anywhere within an image associated with the video data. The video data is encoded such that the encoded video data includes information regarding the active region.

    摘要: A first frame of data is encoded and a first timestamp associated with the first frame of data is generated. The first timestamp includes complete timing information. The first frame of data and the associated first timestamp is transmitted to a destination. A second frame of data is encoded and a second timestamp associated with the second frame of data is generated. The second timestamp includes a portion of the complete timing information. The second frame of data and the associated second timestamp is then transmitted to the destination. Additional frames of data are encoded and additional timestamps associated with the additional frames of data are generated. The majority of the additional timestamps include a portion of the complete timing information.

    摘要: Timecoding systems, methods and data structures are described which, in some embodiments, permit a true time to be ascertained from media samples whose timecodes contain an amount of drift which can arise from having non-integer frame rates. Inventive methods incorporate the use of an offset parameter that describes a time difference between a timecode and a true time associated with a media sample. The inventive approaches can be incorporated with and used compatibly in connection with current timecoding paradigms such as SMPTE timecode and the like. Further embodiments permit timecoding to take place at the field level of a frame. This can permit true-time calculations to be done to ascertain the true time associated with individual fields of a frame. In addition, other embodiments provide novel counting compensation methods that are directed to reducing the drift that can be associated with media samples that are sampled at non-integer frame rates.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for encoding a sampled signal using a nonscalar vector quantizer. A lapping window operator is applied to blocks of signal samples of length greater than N to produce length-N transform vectors which are then encoded by a nonscalar vector quantizer. The method and apparatus may use or have a window operator that is identical to that of the modulated lapped transform, that is a 2N.times.N matrix operator, that is identical to that of the modulated lapped transform with asymmetrical, orthogonal butterflies, or that has butterfly transmittances given by h�n!=sin�(2n+1).pi./4N!. The method and apparatus may use or have a vector quantizer is an unconstrained mean-square optimized vector quantizer having codewords of length N. The method and apparatus may use or have a vector reconstructor being an inverse of the nonscalar vector quantizer to reconstruct length-N vectors coupled through a transmission channel to received the length-N vectors from the vector quantizer, and a block decoder connected to receive as input the reconstructed length-N vectors from the vector reconstructor and to apply a reconstructor window operator to produce vectors that may be superimposed to generate a reconstruction of the sampled signal. The reconstructor window operator may be the inverse of the lapping window operator.
