    摘要: Image sequences are advantageously recoded based on an evaluation of complexities before and after trans-coding of the images. Initially, information is extracted representing at least the complexity of recoding each image. A complexity ratio is calculated in accordance with the complexities of images recoded previously using the aforementioned mode to the complexities of the initial coding of said images. After smoothing the complexity ratio undergoes updating. Each image is recoded according to the mode by estimating the complexity of each image to be recoded as the product of the complexity of the initial coding of the image by the smoothed complexity ratio for the mode.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a method and a device for monitoring the quality of video data having to undergo coding and decoding, making it possible to maintain predetermined constant quality of the video data after decoding. The method is such that information representing the complexity of video data to be coded is received from at least one coder. For each video-data item to be coded, a reference quantization value is calculated as a function of the complexity. For each video-data item to be coded, a reference throughput calculated as a function of the reference quantization value and of the value of the predetermined constant quality is calculated and transmitted to the coder, allowing the coder to code each video data item so as to obtain video data at the predetermined quality, after decoding.

    摘要: A device for regulating bit rate in a system for statistically multiplexing several streams of MPEG 2 coded images is disclosed. The statistical multiplexing system includes a device (1) for allocating bit rate using the complexity calculated by a bit rate regulating device (10). Each coder E(i) of an image stream includes a first coding device (20) for performing spatial coding, a second coding device and a memory for storing the complexity X1st| of the last image coded spatially by the first coding device. The complexity (X−GOP) of the last group of pictures is coded by the second coding device (30). Device (10) regulates the bit rate of coder E(i) for determining the complexity value for the next image coded by the second coding device (30), using stored complexity values. This complexity value is transmitted to the bit rate allocator (1) to determine the next bit rate sent to the coder E(i).
