Detailed Description
The following description of the embodiments of the present application is provided by way of specific examples, and other advantages and effects of the present application will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art from the disclosure herein. The present application is capable of other and different embodiments and its several details are capable of modifications and/or changes in various respects, all without departing from the spirit of the present application. It is to be noted that the features in the following embodiments and examples may be combined with each other without conflict.
It should be noted that the drawings provided in the following embodiments are only for illustrating the basic idea of the present application, and the drawings only show the components related to the present application and are not drawn according to the number, shape and size of the components in actual implementation, and the type, number and proportion of the components in actual implementation may be changed freely, and the layout of the components may be more complicated.
In order to solve the above problems, the present application provides a method, an apparatus, a device, and a medium for unified management of multi-format coded reference frames, which implement management of various coding formats by using a unified reference frame management scheme, and convert syntax elements related to reference frames required for generating each format, thereby implementing convenient management by using a system-to-system managed reference frame in a multi-format composite coding system, and facilitating expansion. Meanwhile, a specific implementation of HEVC/AV1 reference frame unified management is provided. Hevc (high Efficiency Video coding) is high Efficiency Video coding, and AV1 is a coding format.
Fig. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a unified management method for a multi-format coded reference frame according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown, the method comprises:
step S101: a reference frame set (RPS) is generated according to the relation of the input current frame.
Briefly, after a video image is obtained, reference frame information is extracted according to the inter-frame relationship of an input current frame to form a reference frame set (RPS).
In an embodiment of the present application, the generating a reference frame set according to a relationship of an input current frame includes:
A. determining the number of reference frames of the current frame;
B. determining whether each reference frame is a long-term reference frame or a short-term reference frame; judging whether the current frame is a short-term reference frame according to the POC difference value of the current frame; and/or, a certain reference frame is designated as a long-term reference frame and an id is designated;
the GOP is a Group Of Pictures (GOP) Of several small Pictures, and POC is the display order Of Pictures in the GOP in video coding, and usually takes a value range Of 1-GOPSize.
C. It is determined whether each reference frame is referred to by the current frame.
For example, the reference frame set (RPS) may include the following information: the number of reference frames of the current frame; whether each reference frame is a long-term reference frame; POC difference of the (short term reference frame) reference frame with respect to the current frame; (long-term reference frame) long-term reference frame id/POC; whether each reference frame is referenced by the current frame, etc.
Step S102: reference frame sets are assigned to reference frame queues according to the HEVC specification.
In brief, HEVC is used to uniformly manage reference frames using a reference frame set (RPS), and a plug-in manages reference frame management information required by various coding formats. The method comprises the following steps: frame level reference frame queues are selected and updated and maintained by HEVC reference frame levels; and generating frame-level reference frame syntax elements, inputting the syntax elements into a reference frame set (RPS) of the current frame, and generating corresponding frame header/slice header syntax elements by each format plug-in according to the RPS.
HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding) adopts a reference frame set (RPS) technique to manage already decoded frames and to serve as reference frames for subsequent encoding. The RPS is a parameter information set that contains a reference picture queue for constructing a current codec picture and manages the DPB. The encoding end configures RPS for the encoding image, so that each image contains a mark for managing the image in the DPB, and the aim of managing the reference image is further achieved. The reference frame set (RPS) of HEVC indicates all used reference frames of a current frame and reference frames that need to be retained, so that reference frame queue changes can be expressed compactly and are suitable as basic logic for reference frame queue management.
In an embodiment of the present application, the allocating reference frame sets to reference frame queues according to HEVC specification includes: predefining a plurality of reference frame queues; and distributing each reference frame in the reference frame set to a corresponding reference frame queue according to the reference frame information.
In an embodiment of the present application, the reference frame queue includes any one or more of:
a first queue for assembling a forward short-term reference frame referred to by a current frame;
the second queue is used for collecting backward short-term reference frames referred by the current frame;
a third queue for collecting short-term reference frames which are not referred by the current frame but need to be reserved;
a fourth queue for collecting long-term reference frames referred to by the current frame;
and a fifth queue for aggregating long-term reference frames that are not currently referenced but need to be retained.
For example, reference frame queue management is performed according to the HEVC specification, dividing reference frames in RPS into 5 queues:
before, forward short-term reference frame referred by current frame;
after, backward short-term reference frame referred by current frame;
follow, short-term reference frames that are not currently referenced but need to be retained;
lt _ current is a short-term reference frame referred to by the current frame;
lt _ follow, long-term reference frame that is not currently referenced but needs to be retained;
it should be noted that the queues described in the present application are not limited to the above examples, and different queues may be adjusted or added according to the requirements of different format coding.
Step S103: and calling a corresponding function to generate a syntax element according to the video format by taking the reference frame set as an input.
In an embodiment of the present application, the syntax elements include:
A. determining a key frame which needs to be updated by the next current frame in the reference frame queue;
B. generating an updating instruction by the reference frame queue of the next current frame according to the reference frame set;
C. a mapping relationship of a reference frame from a set of reference frames to a next current frame is specified.
For example, refresh _ frame _ flag selects which frames within FrameStore are updated by the current frame; enabling _ order _ hit 1 explicitly specifies a reference frame mapping relationship; ref _ order _ hit [ ] for each slot a reference frame is selected. It should be noted that the syntax elements described in the present application are not limited to the above examples, and the present application can also adjust or add the relevant syntax elements according to the coding requirements of different formats.
Step S104: and operating the reference frame queue of the next current frame according to the syntax element so as to ensure the reference frame queue to be consistent with the reference frame set.
In an embodiment of the present application, the operating the reference frame queue of the next current frame according to the syntax element to ensure consistency with the reference frame set includes:
A. marking a reference frame queue of the next current frame, and marking frames which do not belong to a reference frame set;
B. generating an updating instruction aiming at all marked frames so as to enable the next current frame to update all marked frames;
C. a reference frame is selected for each reference frame queue in the next current frame and all reference frame queues are mapped to the reference frames in the reference frame set used by the next current frame.
For example, when managing for AV1 reference frames, the underlying reference frame queue generates maintenance update instructions from the reference frame set (RPS); a fixed mapping logic is used to map from a reference frame set (RPS) to a currently used reference frame.
In one or more embodiments, the present application takes reference frame set (RPS) generation AV1 reference frame syntax as an example for detailed illustration.
Reference frame management for AV1 includes 2 parts:
the entire reference frame queue is managed by FrameStore, where each entry corresponds to 1 reference frame held in the queue.
The reference frame for use by the current frame is mapped to 7 slots (reference frame queue):
LAST _ FRAME/LAST2_ FRAME/LAST3_ FRAME/GOLDEN _ FRAME/BWDREF _ FRAME/ALTREF2_ FRAME/ALTREF _ FRAME; each block may select 1 (single _ reference) or 2 (component _ reference) reference frames from them.
The relevant syntax elements are:
refresh _ frame _ flag selects which frames within FrameStore are updated by the current frame;
enable _ order _ hit 1 explicitly specifies the reference frame mapping relationship
ref _ order _ hit [ ] for each slot a reference frame is selected.
Step 1): a reference frame queue FrameStore marking a next current frame, wherein frames that are not already within a reference frame set (RPS) are marked as unused;
step 2): the refresh _ frame _ flag is generated to contain all the entries marked as unused, i.e. all unused entries are updated with the current frame, as shown in fig. 2.
Step 3): a reference frame is selected for each slot.
Here we choose to map all slots to the reference frame in the RPS used by the current frame. The common cases are 3:
1)1 forward reference frame F0: all 7 slots map to F0, as shown in fig. 3A, illustrating the mapping of 1 reference frame.
2)2 reference frames (forward reference frame F0+ backward reference frame F1, or 2 forward reference frames F0, F1):
LAST _ FRAME/LAST2_ FRAME/LAST3_ FRAME/GOLDEN _ FRAME maps to F0; BWDREF _ FRAME/ALTREF2_ FRAME/ALTREF _ FRAME maps to F1. As shown in fig. 3B, the mapping relationship of 1 reference frame is illustrated.
3)3 reference frames (forward reference frame F0+ backward reference frame F1+ long term reference frame F2):
LAST _ FRAME/LAST2_ FRAME/LAST3_ FRAME maps to F0; BWDREF _ FRAME/ALTREF2_ FRAME/ALTREF _ FRAME maps to F1; GOLDEN _ FRAME maps to F2. Fig. 3C illustrates the mapping relationship of 3 reference frames.
To sum up, the unified management method for multi-format coded reference frames according to the present application mainly provides a set of effective reference frame management schemes for a multi-format composite coding system, so as to manage various coding formats by using a unified reference frame management scheme, and convert syntax elements related to reference frames required by generating each format, thereby achieving convenient management and easy expansion by using a system-to-system managed reference frame in the multi-format composite coding system.
