Abstract
A method for decoding/encoding a video signal using an inter layer prediction process is disclosed. The method for decoding a video signal including several layer information includes: a) acquiring a first prediction signal for a current block of an enhancement layer and a residual signal based on at least a base layer block; b) smoothing the sum of the first prediction signal and the residual signal, and generating a second prediction signal for the current block; and c) reconstructing the current block based on the second prediction signal. Therefore, the method for decoding/encoding a video signal uses a variety of inter layer prediction methods according to the macroblock type of macroblocks of the current and base layers, and removes inter layer redundancy, resulting in increased coding efficiency.
Description
- The present invention relates to a method for decoding/encoding a video signal, and more particularly to a method for decoding/encoding a video signal using an inter layer prediction process.
- Generally, a Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) under ISO/IEC (International Organization for Standardization/International Electro-technical Commission) and a Video Coding Experts Group (VCEG) under ITU-T (International Telecommunications Union Telecommunication Standardization sector) have jointly configured a Joint Video Team (JVT), such that they have proposed a new standard capable of implementing a video image compression performance superior to those of the MPEG-4 Part 2 standard and the H.263 standard. Representative examples of the above-mentioned new standard are an MPEG-4 AVC (MPEG-4 Part 10: Advanced Video Coding) proposed by the ISO/IEC and the H.264 standard proposed by the ITU-T.
- There must be developed a new method for encoding moving pictures or moving images, such that it must maximize compression efficiency, and must suitably cope with a variety of terminals and variable communication environments. With the above-mentioned demands of the aforementioned enhanced encoding method, the JVT acting as a collaboration team of the ISO/TEC and the ITU-T is conducting intensive research into the standardization of Scalable Video Coding (SVC) based on H.264/AVC.
- The scalable video coding (SVC) basically includes three scalability methods, i.e., temporal scalability, spatial scalability, and SNR scalability.
- The spatial scalability has been executed by an inter layer prediction process, and the SVC provides the increase of coding efficiency.
- The above-mentioned inter layer prediction calculates a high correlation between several layers, such that the overlapping information can be removed from the resultant images by an inter layer prediction process. Therefore, a variety of prediction methods capable of performing the inter-layer prediction must be newly developed.
- An object of the present invention is to provide various method for decoding and encoding a video signal by inter layer prediction.
- Reference will now be made in detail to the preferred embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings.
- The above-mentioned inter layer prediction is classified into a texture prediction and a motion prediction.
- The texture prediction is classified into an intra base prediction and a residua prediction. The motion prediction is classified into a base mode, a base mode refinement, and a motion prediction mode.
- The above-mentioned intra base prediction will be described in detail. If a lower layer macroblock corresponding to a target macroblock to be encoded is encoded by an intra prediction mode, the above-mentioned intra base prediction reconstructs the lower layer macroblock, performs upsampling of the reconstructed macroblock at resolution of the target macroblock to be encoded, and uses the upsampling result as a prediction signal.
- The above-mentioned residual prediction will be described in detail. If a lower layer macroblock corresponding to a target macroblock to be encoded is encoded by an inter prediction mode, such that the lower layer macroblock includes a residual signal, the above-mentioned residual prediction performs the inter layer prediction on the residual signal. Therefore, if motion information of a current macroblock is equal to or similar to that of the lower layer macroblock, the residual prediction performs upsampling of the encoded lower layer residual signal, and uses the upsampling result as a prediction signal of a current macroblock, such that it can remove the inter-layer overlapping information. The above-mentioned base mode will be described in detail. If a lower layer is present between at least two layers having different resolution, the base mode performs upsampling of motion information acquired form the lower layer without using a motion estimation within a current layer, and uses the upsampling resultant image.
- A method for decoding/encoding a video signal using an inter layer prediction process according to the present invention will hereinafter be described with reference to the annexed drawings.

FIG. 1 is a flow chart illustrating a method for decoding a video signal according to the present invention. - Referring to
FIG. 1 , the video signal decoding method acquires a first prediction signal for a current block of an enhancement layer and a residual signal based on at least a base layer block at step S10. In other words, the video signal decoding method according to the present invention uses the inter layer prediction, such that it should be noted that the video signal decoding method uses a first prediction signal for a current layer as a predictor signal capable of decoding a current macroblock and a residual signal based on a base layer block. - In this case, the first prediction signal for the current block can be generated by at least one prediction mode information from among the current block and the base layer block.
- For example, the macroblock type of the current block is an inter macroblock, the prediction signal is generated by a motion vector of the current macroblock. If the macroblock type of the current block is an intra macroblock, the prediction signal is generated by an intra prediction mode of the current macroblock.
- In this case, the intra prediction mode is indicative of one of prediction directions acquired when the prediction mode is performed by referring to neighboring macroblocks during the intra prediction encoding mode.
- For example, the 4×4 pixel-unit intra prediction includes 9 modes according to 9 prediction directions. The higher the generation frequency of a corresponding prediction direction, the lower the allocation number of the corresponding prediction direction.
- The residual signal based on the base layer block is indicative of a residual signal generated according to the macroblock type of macroblocks contained in the base layer.
- In the meantime, a method for generating a second prediction signal as a representative example of the video signal decoding method according to the present invention will hereinafter be described with reference to
FIGS. 2-7 . - The video signal decoding method performs smoothing of the sum of the first prediction signal and the residual signal generated at step S10, and generates a second prediction signal for a current block at step S12.
- The video signal decoding method reconstructs the current block by adding the second prediction signal and the residual signal at step S14. In other words, the video signal decoding method receives the residual signal for a current layer from an encoding unit, and adds the second prediction signal acting as a predictor and the residual signal, such that it reconstructs a current macroblock.
- Also, the video signal decoding method performs smoothing-filtering of the second prediction signal, and adds the smoothing-filtered second prediction signal and the residual signal for the current layer, such that it can decode a current macroblock.
- In this case, the term smoothing-filtering is indicative of a specific process for smoothing directivity of a prediction signal generated by the intra prediction mode.

The residual signal 203 (Rb) for the base layer is generated by the intra prediction mode of the macroblock of the base layer.
- In other words, the video signal decoding method of

filtering signal 209 of thesecond prediction signal 207 and the residual signal 211 (Rc) for the current layer, resulting in the implementation of the reconstruction of the current macroblock 213 (0 c), as represented by an equation “Oc=Rc+f(Pc+u(Rb))”. -

second prediction signal 509 and the residual signal 511 (Rc) for the current layer, as represented by an equation “Oc=Rc+f(u(d(Pc)+Rb))” -

second prediction signal 607 and the residual signal 611 (Rc) for the current layer, as represented by an equation “Oc=Rc+f(Pc+u(Rb))”. -

FIG. 8 , the video signal encoding method according to the present invention generates a second prediction signal for the current layer using a first prediction signal and a residual signal for a base layer at step S80. In other words, the video signal encoding method according to the present invention uses an inter layer prediction method, such that it can be recognized that the first prediction signal for the current layer and the residual signal for the base layer are used as predictor signals for encoding the current macroblock. - In this case, the first prediction signal for the current layer is indicative of a prediction signal generated by the macroblock type of the current layer macroblock. If the macroblock type is indicative of the inter macroblock, the video signal encoding method according to the present invention generates the prediction signal using a motion vector of the current macroblock. Otherwise, if the macroblock type is indicative of the intra macroblock, the video signal encoding method according to the present invention generates the prediction signal by an intra prediction mode of the current macroblock.

FIG. 9 . - Referring to
FIG. 9 , a first prediction signal 901 (Pc) is generated by the intra prediction mode of thecurrent layer macroblock 907. In other words, the video signal encoding method ofFIG. 9 acquires the prediction signal by performing an intra prediction encoding process in a predetermined direction under the intra prediction mode. - The residual signal 903 (Rb) for the base layer is generated by the intra prediction mode of the base layer macroblock.

FIG. 10 is a conceptual diagram illustrating a video signal encoding method ofFIG. 8 according to the present invention. - Provided that the macroblock types of macroblocks contained in current and base layers are indicative of intra macroblocks, a method for generating a second prediction signal according to the present invention is depicted in
FIG. 10 . - Referring to
FIG. 10 , a first prediction signal 101 (Pc) and the residual signal 103 (Rb) for the base layer are generated by the intra prediction mode of the base layer macroblock. In other words, the video signal encoding method ofFIG. 10 calculates a difference between the prediction signal generated by the intra prediction mode of the base layer macroblock and the base layer macroblock, such that it generates a residual signal 103 (Rb) for the base layer. According to the present invention, thefirst prediction signal 101 is generated by the intra prediction mode of the base layer macroblock, such that a correlation between the base layer macroblock and the current layer macroblock is high. Therefore, the video signal encoding method according to the present invention can generate more accurate predictor signal, resulting in the increase of coding efficiency. - Finally, the
second prediction signal 105 is generated by adding the upsampling signal (u) and the first prediction signal 101 (Pc). The upsampling signal (u) is generated by upsampling the residual signal 103 (Rb) for the base layer at resolution of the current layer. - In this case, the video signal encoding method according to the present invention generates the residual signal 109 (Rc) by calculating a difference between the smoothing-filtering signal (f) of the
second prediction signal 105 and the current macroblock, and is then encoded, as represented by an equation “Rc=Oc−f(Pc+u(Rb))” - Flag information of the video signal decoding method of
FIG. 10 can be encoded. In this case, a new syntax may be used as the flag information. Otherwise, residual prediction flag information (residual_prediction_flag) or base mode flag information (base_mode_flag) can be used as the flag information. - A method for generating a first prediction signal, a residual signal for a base layer, and the second prediction signal using the video signal encoding method (not shown) corresponding to the video signal decoding method of
FIGS. 4˜7 are equal to those ofFIGS. 4˜7 . - A weight prediction method (not shown) for an intra base prediction from among inter layer prediction methods will hereinafter be described in detail.
- A video signal encoding method based on the intra base prediction is as follows.
- A weight (w) is multiplied to the upsampling signal (B) of a current layer corresponding to the base layer macroblock, and an offset value (o) is added to the multiplied result, such that a prediction signal for the current layer is generated. In this case, the weight may be the weight of a chromatic signal (chroma) or a luminescence signal (luma), and the offset value may be the offset value of the chromatic signal (chroma) or the luminescence signal (luma).
- Finally, the video signal encoding method based on the intra base prediction encodes the residual signal (R) between the current layer prediction and the current layer macroblock (S), as represented by an equation “R=S−(B*w+o)”. Also, the video signal encoding method based on the intra base prediction can encode the flag information indicating the above-mentioned prediction method, and can also encode weight and offset value information.
- In this case, a new syntax i.e., a weighted intra base prediction flag (weighted_intra_base_prediction_flag) may be defined as the flag information indicating the prediction method.
- For example, if the weighted intra base prediction flag (weighted_intra_base_prediction_flag) is indicative of “1” this indicates that the weight and offset values of the luminescence signal and the chromatic signal are applied to the intra base prediction. If the weighted intra base prediction flag (weighted_intra_base_prediction_flag) is indicative of “0” this indicates that the weight and offset values of the luminescence signal and the chromatic signal are not applied to the intra base prediction.
- Also, the weight information of the luminescence signal and the chromatic signal may be a weight itself, and the offset value information of the luminescence signal and the chromatic signal may be an offset value itself. Otherwise, the weight information and the offset value information may also be indicative of specific information capable of acquiring weight and offset values.
- A video signal decoding method based on intra base prediction is as follows.
- The above-mentioned video signal decoding method based on intra base prediction calculates the weight (w) and the offset value (o) using the weight and offset value information according to the weighted intra base prediction flag (weighted_intra_base_prediction_flag).
- For example, if the weighted intra base prediction flag (weighted_intra_base_prediction_flag) is indicative of “1” this indicates that the weight and offset values of the luminescence signal and the chromatic signal are applied to the intra base prediction. If the weighted intra base prediction flag (weighted_intra_base_prediction_flag) is indicative of “0” this indicates that the weight and offset values of the luminescence signal and the chromatic signal are not applied to the intra base prediction.
- The above-mentioned video signal decoding method based on intra base prediction generates a prediction signal for a current layer using the calculated weight (w) and the offset value (o).
- Finally, the above-mentioned video signal decoding method based on intra base prediction adds the prediction signal for the current layer and the residual signal (R), and decodes the macroblock (S) of the current layer, as represented by an equation “S=R+(B*w+o)”
