Abstract:
An image encoding method using a Binary Partition Tree (BPT) includes performing the BPT on a reference frame, detecting blocks, each having a difference in a pixel value exceeding a threshold value in a current frame, based on a result of the BPT of the reference frame, and performing the BPT of the current frame on the detected blocks. In accordance with the present invention, block partition is not applied to all frames, but a partial partition method based on a difference between the pixel values of a reference frame and a current frame to be encoded is provided. Accordingly, the encoding speed within the P frame or the B frame can be improved. Furthermore, the PSNR of a corresponding frame can be maintained within a specific range of the PSNR of a reference frame, and a compression effect can be improved.
Abstract:
Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for generating metadata of immersive media and disclosed also are an apparatus and a method for transmitting metadata related information. The apparatus includes: at least one of a camera module photographing or capturing the image; a gyro module sensing horizontality; a global positioning sensor (GPS) module calculating a position by receiving a satellite signal; and an audio module recording audio; and a network module receiving sensor effect information from a sensor aggregator through a wireless communication network; and an application generating metadata by performing timer-synchronization of an image photographed based on the camera module, a sensor effect collected by using the gyro module or the GPS module, or audio collected based on the audio module.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an image encoding method using an adaptive preprocessing scheme, including loading an input image for each frame, determining an encoding type of each of the frames, determining the size of a block to be encoded in each frame according to the determined encoding type, determining blocks that can be replicated from the blocks having the determined size and performing an intra-picture replication preprocessing or inter-picture replication preprocessing procedure on the determined blocks according to the encoding types of the frames, and encoding the frames on which the preprocessing procedure has been performed.
