In a method of encoding/decoding a video sequence, which is composed of video frames, at least one video frame is divided into a set of coding blocks, and at least one of the coding blocks is encoded by intra-coding. Then a first reliable region that comprises at least one intra-coded coding block is determined, and the first reliable region in the video sequence is encoded such that creation of an information dependency between the first reliable region and coding blocks outside the first reliable region is prevented.

A system and method for enabling the removal of decoded pictures from a decoded picture buffer as soon as the decoded pictures are no longer needed for prediction reference and future output. An indication is introduced into the bitstream as to whether a picture may be used for inter-layer prediction reference, as well as a decoded picture buffer management method which uses the indication. The present invention includes a process for marking a picture as being used for inter-layer reference or unused for inter-layer reference, a storage process of decoded pictures into the decoded picture buffer, a marking process of reference pictures, and output and removal processes of decoded pictures from the decoded picture buffer.

A method for indicating size, shape and location of a region within a digital picture the picture being divided into a set of blocks. A value for at least one size parameter, which is indicative of a number of the blocks within said region is defined, and a value for at least one shape evolution parameter, which is indicative of a selection order of the blocks in said region is selected. Then preferably the values for said at least one size parameter and said at least one shape evolution parameter are encoded into a bitstream of a video sequence in order to indicate size, shape and location of the region within the picture.

Disclosed are a system, apparatus, computer programs and methods for indicating proper temporal layer switching points for temporal scalable coding. Various embodiments provide an apparatus and method for properly indicating temporal layer switching points in a scalable video bit stream or in a scalable video file container. Using these indications, a decoder can determine where to perform temporal layer switching, after which all of the pictures at and below the desired temporal layer can be correctly decoded.

In a start code based bistream structure for use in video coding, a picture header is used simultaneously with the parameter set in the start code. The picture header is present before the slice header in the same picture. As such, it is possible to allow the presence of at least one sequence parameter set or picture parameter set before the slice header. In a NAL unit parameter set bitstream structure, the picture head NAL unit is present before the slice NAL unit. In either structure, the picture header information must remain unchanged during the decoding of the entire picture, but should change more frequently between pictures as compared to the information in the picture parameter set.
摘要:
A method and device for encoding, decoding, storage and transmission of a scalable data stream to include layers having different coding properties including: producing one or more layers of the scalable data stream, wherein the coding properties include at least one of the following: Fine granularity scalability information; Region-of-interest scalability information; Sub-sample scalable layer information; Decoding dependency information; and Initial parameter sets, and signaling the layers with the characterized coding property such that they are readable by a decoder without the need to decode the entire layers. A corresponding method of encoding, decoding, storage, and transmission of a scalable bit stream is also disclosed, wherein at least two scalability layers are present and each layer has a set of at least one property, such as those above identified.
摘要:
A system and method for conveying supplemental enhancement information related to different pictures in one access unit. Different pictures in one access unit may be pictures of each layer of a scalable video, pictures of each view of a multiview video, or pictures of each description in a multiple description coding (MDC) video. An indication is included in the coded bitstream indicating the pictures with which the supplemental enhancement information message is associated. During a subsequent decoding process, the device performing the decoding recognizes this information and uses it appropriately.
