摘要:
The present invention provides a mechanism for preventing quality degradation of decoded data during the decoding of encoded data. In one embodiment, error propagation is detected and corresponding data is flagged. An error recovery process is then applied to the flagged data. In an alternate embodiment, scores for hypotheses are calculated for lost/damaged data. A score distribution is used for detection of the false hypotheses. The data are flagged if their score distribution is within a range defined by a threshold and an error recovery process is applied to recover those data having associated error flags set.

Data is encoded to maximize subsequent recovery of lost or damaged compression constants of encoded data. In one embodiment, a compression constant is used to define a randomization pattern and the data is randomized using the randomization pattern. In one embodiment, a bit reallocation process and code reallocation process are performed on the data to randomize the data.

The system and method of the present invention provides an innovative technique for recovering lost or damaged (lost/damaged) compression constants in the encoded domain. In one embodiment, a lost/damaged compression constant is recovered by determining at least one candidate compression constant, adjusting encoded data to a common scale, scoring the candidate compression constant using the adjusted encoded data and selecting the candidate compression constant with the best score as the recovered compression constant.

A classified adaptive spatio-temporal creation process is utilized to translate data from one format to another. This process creates new pixels by applying a filter selected on an output pixel by pixel basis which has been adaptively chosen from an application-specific set of three-dimensional filters. In one embodiment, a standard orientation is chosen, which is defined according to each output data position. Input data is flipped to align the output data position with the output position of the standard orientation. A classification is performed using the flipped input data and an appropriate filter is selected according to the classification. The filter is then executed to generate the value of the output data point.

A system and method for decoding a signal comprising fixed-length data (FL-data) and variable length data (VL-data) is disclosed. In one embodiment, groups of fixed length data (FL-data) and blocks of variable length data (VL-data) are stored in a predetermined space. Each group of FL-data corresponds to a block of VL-data. The blocks of VL-data are retrieved by referencing corresponding groups of FL-data. In one embodiment, this system and method permits bidirectional recovery of data. In one embodiment, this is used in the transmission of video signals over a potentially lossy communications channel.

A method, apparatus, and article of manufacture for restoring a deteriorated signal to an undeteriorated signal. A deteriorated signal consists of a plurality of deteriorated and undeteriorated data points. For each deteriorated data point, a plurality of class types is created based upon characteristics of the area containing the deteriorated data point. The data point is classified with respect to one of the plurality of class types and assigned a corresponding input signal class. The undeteriorated signal is generated by adaptively filtering the deteriorated input signal in accordance with the input signal classification result. More than one classification method is used to create the plurality of class types. Created classes may include a motion class, an error class, a spatial class or a spatial activity class. A spatial class is modified according to a spatial symmetry.

An apparatus, method, and computer-readable medium for selectively performing, in parallel structures, different functions on an input image, sound data or other correlated data. An input is configured to receive the input data. There are at least two circuits, each circuit is coupled to the input and each circuit is configured to perform a different function on the input data. A motion-detection circuit is coupled to the input and each of the at least two circuits. The motion-detection circuit is configured to determine a level of change in the input data and generate an output of motion data. The motion data is used by each of the at least two circuits to perform its corresponding function. A select device is coupled to each of the at least two circuits and a control input. The select device is configured to select as output data, the output of one of the at least two circuits based upon the control input. The different functions performed on the input data may be selected from the group consisting of recovering erroneous data contained in the input data, interpolating the input data, and reducing the noise level of the input data.

A system and method for buffering a plurality of divisions of a signal prior to transmission of the signal is disclosed. The buffering is configured to prevent error propagation during decoding of the transmitted signal. A set of encoding levels at a transmission rate is selected from a threshold table having a plurality of encoding levels. Each set of encoding levels includes a plurality of ranges configured to select encoding bits. Each division of the signal is encoded using the set of encoding levels. In one embodiment, this is used in the transmission of video signals over a potentially lossy communications channel.
