摘要:
Provided are alternatives for improving coding efficiency when an AR-FGS technique and an FGS motion refinement technique are applied to scalable video coding. When prediction of a residual signal an FGS layer is not performed, a ′ prediction signal of block related to the FGS layer is predicted in the same manner as the manner of predicting a prediction signal of a base quality layer. A scaling factor is allowed to have a non-zero value if required, and the residual signal of the FGS layer is used to determine a scaling factor of a higher FGS layer. The AR-FGS and FGS motion refinement techniques are restricted from being simultaneously used for key pictures.

Provided is a scalable video coding method and apparatus. Motion data of a high-quality fine grain scalability (FGS) layer is used for interlayer coding in order to remove redundancy between coarse grain scalability (CGS) layers or layers having different spatial resolutions, and information indicating that data of the FGS layer has been used for interlayer motion prediction is inserted for Moving Picture Expert Group (MPEG)-4 scalable video encoding. A bitstream extractor checks the information and performs extraction to maintain the data of the FGS layer. MPEG-4 scalable video decoding is performed using the information. By using the FGS layer, interlayer redundancy can be efficiently removed, thereby improving encoding efficiency.

The present invention relates to modality conversion for supporting Quality of Service (QoS) according to media resources, which includes the steps of receiving a modality conversion descriptor in which the characteristics of the modality conversion of the multimedia contents are described, receiving the multimedia contents, and converting the modality of the multimedia contents into a modality determined according to a media resource and the modality conversion descriptor. According to the present invention, a systematic approach to a design for an overlap content value model is provided so that the conversion boundaries between modalities can be quantitatively calculated. As a result, the correlation between various modalities can be established in a single model, and modality conversion supporting the optimal QoS can be performed.

摘要:
A conventional new video coding technology can provide a bitstream switching picture by encoding the bitstream switching picture into an I picture. However, an encoding efficiency is greatly reduced. As such, the new video coding technology does not provide an efficient bitstream switching function. Also, other advantages provided by a switching picture technology such as a random access, error durability, and a bitstream splicing are not provided. Provided is an apparatus for encoding a video bitstream including a base layer bitstream and an enhancement layer bitstream by encoding an enhancement layer picture of the enhancement layer bitstream, which is reproduced immediately after a base layer picture of the base layer bitstream is reproduced, into a non-switching pictures by interlayer prediction using a reference image generated by decoding a pre-encoded base layer picture or by motion prediction using another reference image generated by decoding a pre-encoded enhancement layer picture, and into a switching picture, which is decoded into the same image as the non-switching picture, by an interlayer prediction using the non-switching picture and a reference image generated by decoding a pre-encoded base layer picture, while the base layer picture is being reproduced.
