Description

Visual point synthesizing method, device and encoder during a kind of coding depth information
Technical field
The present invention relates to multimedia technology field, more particularly to visual point synthesizing method, dress during a kind of coding depth information Put and encoder.
Background technology
In the 98th MPEG(Moving Pictures Experts Group, dynamic image expert group)In meeting, HHI (Heinrich Hertz Institute, Rhein-hertz research institute)One kind is proposed in depth image compression based on synthesis The rate-distortion optimization algorithm of viewpoint distortion information.In the algorithm, the distortion size of depth image is by synthesizing the distortion of viewpoint Change to weigh, can specifically be expressed as:
(x, y)∈l[s'T(x,y)-s′T, R(x, y)]2 (1)
Wherein, s'T,R(x, y) represents the virtual view that application original texture image and original depth information are synthesized.Meanwhile, During coding depth information, an amplitude deepness image is divided into encoded, present encoding and uncoded three class.ForAnd s'T (x, y), is all that the texture image of selection application distortion is synthesized.Difference is, s'TThe encoded depth of (x, y) application reconstruct Information is spent, the depth information and other original pixel depth information of original present encoding are synthesized, andUsing The encoded depth information of reconstruct, the depth information of the present encoding of distortion and other original pixel depth information are closed Into.If as can be seen that the depth information of current distortion will not cause the change for synthesizing viewpoint, then Δ D=0.
Existing technical scheme is the situation of change based on synthesis viewpoint distortion to being closed caused by current depth information distortion Estimated into viewpoint distortion, therefore need in actual coding to proceed as follows:
1. encoding before current depth image, View Synthesis is carried out to original depth image and original texture image, that is, synthesized s'T,R(x,y).View Synthesis is carried out to original depth image and distortion texture image, that is, synthesizes s'T(x, y) and Before cataloged procedure starts
2. when encoding current block, it is necessary to the rate of progress distortion computation.If current depth block is B, the mistake of calculation rate distortion True block is B ', and the original depth information in encoded region is P, and distortion depth information is P ', uncoded region original depth Information is H, then current s'T(x, y) is by P ', B, and H depth information, which is drawn, to be obtained, and need not be calculated at this moment( It is updated in below step).However, for the Δ D in calculation formula (1), it is necessary to update current depth block message using B ' The later synthesis view information of distortion is so as to updateIn this process, the synthesis viewpoint pixel only being had influence on to B ' Drafting operation is carried out, rather than is updated for entire image, so Δ D carry out rate distortion computations are can obtain.
3. when having encoded current block, View Synthesis is carried out with current encoded distortion information to update synthesis viewpoint Information.It is similarly assumed that current depth block is B, reconstructed blocks are B ", and the original depth information in encoded region is P, distortion depth Information is P ', and uncoded region original depth information is H, during current block is encoded, equally, s'T(x, y) be by P ', B, H depth information are obtained, however, obtaining B " later, it is necessary to s' when having encoded current blockT(x, y) applies B " to carry out more Newly.With 2, the synthesis viewpoint pixel that renewal process still only has influence on to B " carries out drafting operation, rather than for entire image It is updated, so that P ' is obtained, B ", the s' that H is drawnT(x,y)。
It can see from as above process, existing technical scheme needs constantly to carry out the drafting of viewpoint in an encoding process With renewal, it is necessary to larger time complexity(Time overhead).Accordingly, it would be desirable to which designing quick technical scheme is ensureing Encoding Reduce the time complexity of coding side while energy.

Another further aspect, the embodiments of the invention provide a kind of encoder, the encoder includes above-mentioned coding depth information When View Synthesis device.
The above method of the embodiment of the present invention, device or encoder techniques scheme have the advantages that:Because using During View Synthesis during coding depth information, to every a line depth value of depth image coding unit, according to depth value with The mapping relations of horizontal parallax, are each mapped to original level parallax by original depth value and distortion depth value and level of distortion are regarded Difference;Judge that current line distortion is deep according to the difference of original level parallax and level of distortion parallax, and using horizontal parallax distortion threshold Whether angle value can cause the change for synthesizing viewpoint pixel value;If it is determined that current line distortion depth value is without result in synthesis viewpoint pixel The change of value, then skip the row during View Synthesis, and the technology hand of View Synthesis is not carried out using the line distortion depth value Section, it is possible to reduce the time complexity of coding side while coding efficiency is ensured.
The technical scheme that the above method of the embodiment of the present invention, device or encoder are proposed is during coding, often Before secondary synthesis viewpoint, after obtaining original depth information and current depth information, using original depth information and work as Preceding depth information, and the characteristic of blocking of texture image characteristic and synthesis viewpoint are analyzed, thus judge whether to need into Row View Synthesis is operated.(It should be noted that the technical program does not have any influence for decoding end)Specific technical scheme is such as Under:
In the case of camera horizon parallel arranged, relation between real depth information z and parallax information d can be with It is expressed as:
Wherein, f represents the focal length of video camera.L represents the reference range between two viewpoints.
If the corresponding quantisation depths of current depth z are v=Q (z), then the relation between parallax information and quantisation depth can be with It is expressed as:
Different depth informations can cause different horizontal parallaxs it can be seen from formula (3).However, in practical application In, floor operation (rounding) can be typically done to horizontal parallax.For example in existing 3DV-HEVC, horizontal parallax is used 1/4 pixel precision is rounded, as shown in figure 4, being regarded to be original in the case of the identical 1/4 pixel precision parallax of application example of the present invention correspondence Difference and distortion parallax schematic diagram.It can see after rounding, original depth and distortion depth correspond to the pixel precision of identical 1/4 Horizontal parallax.Therefore, the distortion of depth information can not necessarily cause the distortion of horizontal parallax.
If the position of current pixel is p, the corresponding parallax d of pixel depth value is R in the operation rounded of 1/N precisionN (d).Assuming that dopFor original disparity, dspFor distortion parallax.Then parallax distortion can be expressed as
DN(dop,dsp)=RN(dop)-RN(dsp) (4)
In existing 3DV-HEVC, horizontal parallax is rounded using 1/4 pixel precision, then N=4.
When parallax distortion is not 0, the distortion and texture image characteristic for synthesizing virtual view have very big relation, such as scheme It is the corresponding synthesis viewpoint schematic diagram of application example original depth of the present invention shown in 5 (a);Fig. 5 (b) is application example of the present invention The corresponding synthesis viewpoint schematic diagram of distortion depth;Fig. 5 (c) is synthesis viewpoint in application example Fig. 5 (a) of the present invention and Fig. 5 (b) The differential of pixel value is intended to.As we can see from the figure:The pixel value of position 2 ~ 5 is identical in texture image, these position texture maps Picture gradient very little is 0, in this case, the picture in the synthesis viewpoint obtained using original depth information and distortion depth information The pixel value of synthesis viewpoint position 1 ~ 3 in plain difference very little, such as Fig. 5 (a) and Fig. 5 (b);On the other hand, position 5 in texture image ~ 9 pixel value is changed greatly, and these position texture image gradients are larger, in this case, utilize original depth information and distortion Pixel differences in the synthesis viewpoint that depth information is obtained are very big, the picture of synthesis viewpoint position 4 ~ 7 in such as Fig. 5 (a) and Fig. 5 (b) Element value.
The embodiment of the present invention defines threshold value Gl,GrCurrent pixel left side and right side after 1/4 picture element interpolation are represented respectively Smoothness, specifically, GlRepresent in the range of the pixel on the left of current pixel p, for current pixel p and GlBetween Any one pixel, the value of the pixel is identical with current pixel p, similarly, GrRepresent the pixel point range on the right side of current pixel p It is interior, for current pixel p and GrBetween any one pixel, the value of the pixel is identical with current pixel p.
Gl=min { plWherein plMeet:I (m)=I (p)
Gr=max { prWherein prMeet:I (m)=I (p) (5)
Wherein, p1<P represents the pixel on the left of pixel p, pr>P represents the pixel on the right side of pixel p, and I is represented after interpolation High-resolution reconstruction image.
When current pixel is blocked, the depth information of current pixel does not work in View Synthesis.As shown in fig. 6, being Application example of the present invention blocks pixel schematic diagram.C, d pixel depth information do not influence the result of View Synthesis.The depth of current pixel Spend after information distortion, if current pixel is still blocked, you can think that the distortion of its depth information will not be to View Synthesis Produce influence.When being currently blocked as pixel, application example definition of the present invention:
Wherein poFor the position for the depth pixel for blocking current pixel, p is the position of current pixel.To<Represent closing when 0 Current pixel is blocked by the pixel on the left of it on into viewpoint.If the depth value distortion of current pixel causes current pixel in synthesis Position in viewpoint move to left but not move to left toIf left side, the depth value distortion does not interfere with synthesis viewpoint Distortion.Similar, To>0 represent synthesis viewpoint on current pixel by it on the right side of pixel block.
When current pixel blocks other pixels, application example of the present invention requires that current pixel can not produce any parallax and lose Very.
To sum up, application example of the present invention defines threshold value TlAnd TrIt is as follows(TlRepresent the horizontal parallax and original level after distortion Parallax is compared, can at most offset to the left how much, TrRepresent that the horizontal parallax after distortion compared with original level parallax, at most may be used With offset to the right how much):
And define condition:
C={ RN(v)-RN(v')≤TlAnd RN(v')-RN(v)≤Tr, wherein, C represents the horizontal parallax after distortion assorted In the range of will not cause the distortion that synthesizes viewpoint, v represents original level parallax, and v' represents level of distortion parallax.
As shown in fig. 7, visual point synthesizing method flow chart during for application example coding depth information of the present invention, including it is as follows Step:
701st, j=0 is initialized;
702nd, to jth row pixel S in current blockj
703rd, judge whetherD ∈ C, if it is, i.e. it is believed that the distortion of current line depth information pixel is to synthesis Viewpoint distortion does not influence, then goes to step 704, if it is not, then going to step 706;
704th, jth row is skipped, View Synthesis is not carried out using the jth row pixel;
The 705th, j+1 is assigned to j the newest, i.e. j=j+1,702 are then gone to step;
706th, jth row pixel S is utilizedjView Synthesis;
The 707th, j+1 is assigned to j the newest, i.e. j=j+1,702 are then gone to step.
As can be seen here, when needing the depth value with one piece of distortion to carry out View Synthesis in coding, to every row depth value Judged, judge whether that the row depth value all meets set C condition, if all meeting, regarded without the row depth value Point synthesis, otherwise, View Synthesis is carried out according to normal flow.
The technical scope of the technical program application(Field)It is the View Synthesis process in coding depth information process.Compiling During code depth information calculated distortion, existing method is regarded using every one-row pixels of each depth image coding unit Point synthesis.In the scheme that the technical program is proposed, first determine whether every a line of depth image coding unit whether to View Synthesis Have an impact, if do not influenceed, the row is skipped during View Synthesis to reduce encoding-time-complexity.
