摘要:
In a picture information encoding apparatus that outputs picture compression information according to a picture encoding system such as MPEG4/AVC, when it is determined whether the mode of a predetermined block is a skip mode or a spatial direct mode, moving vector information and so forth for all of predetermined adjacent blocks needs to have been computed. However, when each block is processed in parallel to speed up the entire processes, moving vector information and so forth of the predetermined adjacent blocks may not be always obtained. In this case, moving vector information and so forth of neighbor blocks instead of adjacent blocks are pseudo-used to determine the mode of the block without need to wait until moving vector information and so forth of adjacent blocks have been computed.

An object of the invention is to provide a prediction compensation device and its method in which the processing efficiency of the overall coding process is enhanced. The address of an object pixel block serving as a pixel block of prediction object among a plurality of pixel blocks is detected, a first search range or a second search range narrower than the first search range is decided as the search range of a motion vector for the object pixel block on the reference frame according to the detected address, and the motion vector is searched for from the decided search range around the predictor of the motion vector based on the surrounding pixel blocks adjacent to the object pixel block.

A data processing apparatus, a method of data processing and an encoding device are provided. The data processing apparatus is capable of encoding all motion compensation block data, wherein, when generating for example a motion vector MV of a motion compensation block data A in macro block data MB_X, when the motion vectors MV of the motion compensation block data B1, B2, and B3 at the periphery of that are not generated, a predictive vector generation unit of a motion prediction and compensation circuit generates a predictive motion vector PMV of the motion compensation block data A by using already generated motion vectors MV of motion compensation block data C1, C2, and C3 in the adjacent macro block data MB_Y in place of them.

An encoding apparatus and an encoding method, a decoding apparatus and a decoding method, a recording medium, and a program suitable for encoding image signals with a higher compression ratio for transmission or accumulation. In an arithmetic coding section, from among the syntax elements of input image compression information, the frame/field flag is first encoded by a frame/field flag context model. When the macroblock to be processed is subjected to frame-based encoding, a frame-based context model, specified in the current H.26L standard, is applied. On the other hand, when the macroblock to be processed is subjected to field-based encoding, a field-based context model is applied for the syntax elements described below. The present invention is applied to an encoder for encoding image information and a decoder for decoding image information.

An image decoding method is for decoding a bit stream in an image decoding apparatus. The method includes receiving the bit stream and a weight parameter that is added to a luma quantization parameter by an addition operation. The method also includes decoding, in a decoding unit in the image decoding apparatus, the bit stream and generating a chroma component of quantized coefficients. In addition, the method includes performing, in a dequantization unit in the image decoding apparatus, dequantization on the chroma component of quantized coefficients using the chroma quantization parameter calculated on the basis of a luma quantization parameter weighted by the weight parameter.

The present invention is directed to an image information encoding apparatus, used in receiving compressed image information through network media when processing of such compressed image information is performed on storage media. A picture sorting buffer delivers information of picture type of frame Picture_type to a picture type discrimination unit. The picture type discrimination unit transmits command to a motion prediction/compensation unit on the basis of that information. The motion prediction/compensation unit generates predictive picture by using filter coefficients having the number of taps lesser than that of P picture with respect to B picture for which operation quantity and the number of memory accesses are required to more degree as compared to P picture on the basis of that command.

The present invention relates to an image processing apparatus and an image processing method capable of performing weighted prediction on the basis of local characteristics of an image.An inter-TP motion prediction/compensation unit 76 performs a matching process on a block of an image of a frame to be encoded using an inter-template matching method and performs implicit weighted prediction using a weighting coefficient computed from the pixel values of a template region for the matching. The weighting coefficient is computed by a weighting coefficient computing unit 77. The present invention is applicable to, for example, an image encoding apparatus that performs encoding using the H.264/AVC standard.
