摘要:
The color tone compensation method provides a simple and efficient method to compensate the color tone differences between two different sources of images. A first image sample, such as a still image, from a first image capturing source and a second image sample, such as a video frame, from a second image capturing source are aligned, and a tone-mapping estimation routine is applied to the two aligned images. The tone-mapping estimation routine uses the pixel intensity value histograms associated with the two aligned images and generates a tone mapping table. The tone mapping table includes a conversion intensity value for each intensity value in the second image. The conversion intensity value is a statistical measure, such as the mean, calculated according to the data in the corresponding pixel intensity value histogram. The tone-mapping table is applied to any image generated by the second image capturing source, thereby generating a new image with similar color tone as the first image generated by the first image capturing source.

A method of compression of digital images using a fixed number of bits per block is described. Intra-coding is used for lossless compression of digital images. The image is partitioned into blocks with the same size. The encoder generates a fixed and predetermined number of bits for each block. The encoding process includes gamma conversion applied to the input image to generate data. Additional stages include prediction, quantization, DPCM, entropy coding and refinement.
摘要:
Method and apparatus for hierarchical bi-directional intra-prediction in a video encoder is described. In some examples, initial reference blocks are selected in an image. Sets of blocks in the image are predicted successively over a plurality of stages based on a respectively plurality of templates, each of the plurality of templates including reference blocks selected from at least one of: the initial reference blocks; or previously encoded and reconstructed blocks of the image. The image is encoded in the video encoder using the initial reference blocks and the sets of blocks as predicted.

A method and apparatus for adaptive interpolation filtering for image compression is disclosed. The method includes determining an activity measure associated with a set of pixels neighboring a pixel undergoing intraframe prediction or a distance measure between at least one pixel in the set of pixels and the pixel undergoing intraframe prediction, and selecting a filter for filtering at least a portion of the set of pixels in accordance with the at least one of the activity measure or the distance measure.
摘要:
Method and apparatus for intra-prediction in a video encoder are described. An aspect relates to a method of intra-prediction for a group of samples in an image being coded. In some examples, the method includes: defining a target template for the group of samples; comparing the target template with affine transformations of candidate templates within a search area of the image; identifying at least one matching template of the candidate templates as matching the target template; determining a candidate group of samples based on the at least one matching template; and coding the group of samples using the candidate group of samples as a predictor.

摘要:
An image compression method with random access capability. The method includes intracoding of digital images. The image is partitioned into small blocks and each block is coded independently of other blocks in the image. The encoder generates a fixed and predetermined number of bits for each block. The decoding of each image block is able to be done independently of any other image block.
