摘要:
A codec, systems, and methods for compressing video data includes selecting a current video frame of the video data, dividing the current video frame into multiple blocks, wherein each block has M×N pixels, approximating the blocks of the current frame based on motion vectors associated with corresponding blocks from the previous frame, further refining the blocks of the current frame by determining optimal motion vectors for the blocks of the current frame based on the motion vectors provided (i) by the corresponding blocks from the previous frame, (ii) by the surrounding blocks in the current frame, and (iii) from successively smaller blocks within the current frame, wherein the optimal motion vectors for the blocks of the current frame are optimized to balance distortion and rate and wherein the optimal motion vectors are represented by codewords generated from Huffman tables.
摘要:
The image reconstruction method generates higher quality reconstructed images from compression of a bi-level image. The method includes thresholding to force pixels of the starting image to be closer to bi-level to generate a threshold image. The method transforms the threshold image to generate transform coefficients representing the decomposition of the threshold image. The method selectively clamps the transform coefficients into quantization bins defined by compression of the bi-level image. The selective clamping generates modified coefficients corresponding to the higher quality reconstructed image. The method also includes applying an inverse-transform on the modified coefficients to generate higher quality reconstructed image. The starting image and the reconstructed image can be compared to determine the degree of improvement obtained with the method. The method can be repeated iteratively to obtain an image that more closely represents the original image than does the original lower-quality image.
