摘要:
Methods of encoding and decoding for video data are describe in which significance maps are encoded and decoded using non-spatially-uniform partitioning of the map into parts, wherein the bit positions within each part are associated with a given context. Example partition sets and processes for selecting from amongst predetermined partition sets and communicating the selection to the decoder are described.
摘要:
Methods and devices for encoding and decoding that involve sorting bins according to their respective estimated probabilities to form subsequences, each subsequence having an associated estimated probability. Subsequences are encoded to form codewords. Ordered sets of phrases of known length are then formed from the codewords. Each first of the phrases in a set contains at least part of one codeword. The first phrase has an associated estimated probability and the probability estimates associated with each of the other phrases in the set are determined based upon the probability estimate associated with the first phrase, which permits the phrases to be decoded in parallel.
摘要:
A method for parallel context modeling through reordering the bits of an input sequence to form groups of bits in accordance with a context model-specific reordering schedule. The reordering schedule is developed such that the groups of bits are formed to satisfy two conditions: first, that the context for each of the bits in a group of bits is different from the context of each of the other bits in that group, and the context of each of the bits in that group is determined independently from each of the other bits in that group. The parallel context modeling may be used in encoding or decoding operations.
摘要:
A method for encoding an input sequence of symbols. The method includes, sequentially, for each symbol in the input sequence, determining an estimated probability for that symbol based on a context model, identifying a codeword associated with a sequence of symbols resulting from appending that symbol to a previous sequence of symbols associated with that estimated probability, using an encoding tree associated with that estimated probability, and storing the codeword in a buffer element of a first-in-first-out buffer, wherein the buffer element is associated with the estimated probability. Stored codewords are output from the buffer in a first-in-first-out order.
摘要:
Methods and systems are described for combining sources in a data compression system. In a system in which a context model results in the production of multiple sources or symbols, each source being associated with a probability estimate, sources may be combined by defining another, reduced size, set of probabilities. The new set of probabilities may be a subset of the predefined set of probabilities provided by the context model. Minimizing relative entropy may be a basis upon which to define a mapping of predefined probabilities to the new set of probabilities. An input sequence that was modeled using the context model may then be entropy encoded and entropy decoded using the new set of probabilities based on a mapping between the new probabilities and the predefined probabilities.
摘要:
A method for entropy coding data using parallel entropy coders to encode an input sequence as a plurality of encoded subsequences, which are then combined to form an output bitstream. The input sequence is separated into subsequences on the basis of a context model. A method for entropy decoding a bitstream of encoded data by extracting a plurality of encoded subsequences from the bitstream and entropy decoding the encoded subsequences in parallel to generate a plurality of decoded subsequences, which are then interleaved based on a context model to produce a reconstructed sequence.

摘要:
A method for encoding an input sequence of symbols as a plurality of codewords including primary codewords and secondary codewords, and a method of decoding the plurality of codewords. The codewords are output as a bitstream including an associated codeword type indicator, which specifies whether its associated plurality of consecutive codewords includes at least one secondary codeword and, if so, the location of the first of the at least one secondary codewords. The decoder selects between a primary codeword decoding tree and a secondary codeword decoding tree, and decodes one of the plurality of codewords using the selected decoding tree.
