    摘要: A transcoder that controls the amount of generated codes of an output stream toward a target bit rate without degradation of image quality. The transcoder decodes a first stream and encodes the decoded image again to thereby output a second stream. The transcoder calculates a distortion evaluation value from the image obtained by decoding the first stream and an image obtained by decoding the second stream. Assuming that a ratio between the distortion evaluation value and a total target distortion evaluation value is determined as a target distortion ratio, a target setting bit rate of a second stream in the period can be obtained by multiplying a total target bit rate of the second stream by the target distortion ratio. Alternatively, the target setting bit rate can be obtained by adjusting the target distortion ratio with an appropriate function and adding the target distortion ratio to the total target bit rate of the second stream.

    摘要: An image coding apparatus calculates the activity of each macroblock. All the macroblocks of block lines are set as intra-candidate macroblocks (intra-candidate MBs) which are candidates for intra coding. Every other macroblock is set as an intra-candidate MB in block lines. One of the intra-candidate MBs in each block line, which has the minimum activity, is determined as an intra macroblock of a frame. The macroblock determined as the intra MB is changed from the intra-candidate MB to an intra-forbidden macroblock. After changing the setting of the intra-candidate MBs, intra macroblocks are determined for a frame inputted subsequent to the frame.

    摘要: A correlation value calculation circuit calculates respective correlation values of each pixel for color image or for gray image in four directions. A selection circuit determines respective correlation values (Cv, Ch, CdA and CdB) in the four directions on the basis of a chroma evaluation value. A first correlation judgment circuit determines a correlation direction of a specified pixel from the correlation values (Cv, Ch, CdA and CdB). A first interpolation circuit performs color interpolation on the basis of the determined correlation direction. A color-interpolated image is enlarged by an enlargement circuit. A correlation direction interpolation circuit performs enlargement and interpolation of the correlation direction determined by the first correlation judgment circuit. A filter performs a filtering process for each of pixels of the enlarged image by using the interpolated correlation direction for enlargement.

    摘要: A symbol generation part serially inputs a data string of quantization data. If quantization data of non-zero coefficient is inputted, respective information on an absolute value, a zero run and a sign of the non-zero coefficient are stored in registers. When quantization data of the next non-zero coefficient is inputted, the respective information on the absolute value, the zero run and the sign stored in the registers are updated. At that time, the contents of the registers which have been stored immediately before the input are outputted as symbol data of the immediately preceding non-zero coefficient.

    摘要: An image compression apparatus performs quantization of DC component data, low-pass component data and high-pass component data which are generated by frequency conversion of still image data. An extracting part extracts additional data and coding object data which is to be entropy coded, from quantization data. An entropy coding part performs entropy coding of the coding object data stored in a coding object data memory. An additional data processing part generates a flex bit from the additional data. A pattern information generation part acquires the coding object data directly from the extracting part, to generate pattern information indicating whether the coding object data is zero or not. A bit stream generation part outputs the pattern information, the coding object data and the flex bit in a predetermined order, to output a bit stream.

    摘要: An imaging device made of a single-chip type including a RGB Bayer pattern color filter is where pixel signals outputted from the imaging device are inputted through a signal processing part to an image processing part. A correlation judgment part judges a correlation between the pixel signals, and an interpolation processing part performs a pixel interpolation process based on a correlation result. Thus, each pixel signal becomes a perfect signal having all R, G and B color components. Filter factors for a filter are determined based on the correlation result, and a filtering process is performed on the pixel signals subjected to the pixel interpolation.
