Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to the field of image processing, and more specifically to the encoding and decoding of digital images and digital image sequences.
- the invention can thus, in particular, apply to the video coding implemented in current (MPEG, H.264, etc.) or future video encoders (ITU-T / VCEG (H.265) or ISO / MPEG ( HVC).
- current MPEG, H.264, etc.
- future video encoders ITU-T / VCEG (H.265)
- ISO / MPEG HVC
- each macroblock is itself divided into blocks and each block, or macroblock, is coded by intra-image prediction or inter-image prediction.
- intra-image prediction some images are coded by spatial prediction (intra prediction), while other images are coded by temporal prediction (inter prediction) with respect to one or more coded-decoded reference images, by means of compensation. in motion known to those skilled in the art.
- inter prediction temporal prediction
- for each block can be coded a residual block corresponding to the original block minus a prediction.
- the coefficients of this block are quantized after a possible transformation, then coded by an entropic coder.
- Intra prediction and inter prediction require that some blocks that have been previously coded and decoded be available, so as to be used, both at the decoder and the encoder, to predict the current block.
- a schematic example of such a predictive coding is shown in FIG. 1, in which an image I N is divided into blocks, a current block MB of this image being subjected to a predictive coding with respect to a predetermined number of three blocks.
- MBr- ⁇ , MBr 2 and MBr 3 previously coded and decoded, as indicated by the gray arrows.
- the three aforementioned blocks specifically include the MBn block located immediately to the left of the current block MB ,, and the two blocks MBr 2 and MBr 3 respectively located immediately above and to the right above the current block MB ,.
- the entropic encoder encodes the information according to their order of arrival. Typically a line-by-line path of the blocks is made, of "raster-scan" type, as illustrated in FIG. 1 by the reference PRS, starting from the block at the top left of the image. For each block, the various information necessary for the representation of the block (block type, prediction mode, residual coefficients, ...) are sent sequentially to the entropy coder.
- CABAC Context Adaptive Binary Arithmetic Coder
- This entropic coder implements different concepts:
- arithmetic coding the coder, as initially described in J. Rissanen and G. G. Langdon, "Universal modeling and coding,” IEEE Trans. Inform. Theory, vol. IT-27, pp. 12-23, Jan. 1981, uses, to encode a symbol, a probability of appearance of this symbol;
- Adaptation to the context it is a question of adapting the probability of appearance of the symbols to be coded. On the one hand, an on-the-fly learning is done. On the other hand, depending on the state of the previously coded information, a specific context is used for the coding.
- Each context corresponds to a probability of appearance of the symbol itself.
- a context corresponds to a type of coded symbol (the representation of a coefficient of a residue, coding mode signaling, etc.) according to a given configuration, or a neighborhood state (for example the number of modes). "Intra" selected in the neighborhood, ...);
- binarization a setting in the form of a sequence of bits of the symbols to be encoded is performed. Subsequently, these different bits are successively sent to the binary entropic coder.
- this entropic coder implements, for each context used, a system for learning on-the-fly probabilities with respect to symbols previously coded for the context in question. This learning is based on the coding order of these symbols. Typically, the image is scanned according to a "raster-scan" type order, described above.
- the learning of the probability p of appearance of this symbol is updated for a current block MB, as follows: where a is a predetermined value, for example 0.95 and p M is the probability of appearance of symbol calculated at the last appearance of this symbol.
- FIG. 1 A schematic example of such an entropy coding is shown in FIG. 1, in which a current block MB of the image 1 N is subjected to entropy coding.
- the probabilities of appearance of symbols used are those obtained after coding a previously coded and decoded block, which is the one immediately preceding the current block MB, in accordance with the line-by-line blocks of the type "raster scan" supra.
- Such learning based block dependency is shown in Figure 1 for some blocks only for the sake of clarity of the figure, by the arrows fine line.
- a disadvantage of such a type of entropy encoding lies in the fact that when encoding a symbol at the beginning of a line, the probabilities used correspond mainly to those observed for the symbols at the end of the previous line. , taking into account the "raster scan" path of the blocks.
- the probabilities of the symbols for example for a symbol linked to a movement information, the movement situated on the right part of an image may be different from that observed on the left part and therefore of even for the resulting local probabilities
- a lack of local matching of the probabilities can be observed, which may lead to a loss of efficiency during coding.
- proposals for changes to the order of the blocks have been made, in order to ensure better local consistency, but the coding and decoding remain sequential.
- the entropic coder CABAC has the particularity of assigning a non-integer number of bits to each symbol of a current alphabet to be encoded, which is advantageous for the probabilities of appearance of symbols. greater than 0.5. Specifically, the CABAC encoder waits to read several symbols, then assigns to this set of symbols read a predetermined number of bits that the encoder registered in the compressed stream to be transmitted to the decoder.
- Such an arrangement thus makes it possible to "mutualize" the bits over several symbols and to encode a symbol on a fractional number of bits, this number reflecting information that is closer to the information actually conveyed by a symbol.
- Other bits associated with the symbols read are not transmitted in the compressed stream but are kept waiting to be assigned to one or more new symbols read by the CABAC coder again to mutualize these other bits.
- the entropic coder proceeds at a given instant to "emptying" these non-transmitted bits. In other words, at said given instant, the encoder extracts the bits not yet transmitted and writes them in the compressed stream to the decoder.
- Such emptying occurs for example at the moment when the last symbol to be coded has been read, so as to ensure that the compressed stream contains all the bits that will allow the decoder to decode all the symbols of the alphabet.
- the time at which the drain is performed is determined by the performance and functionality of a particular encoder / decoder.
- the document which is available at http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/people/iinl/paper 2002 / msri jpeg.htm as of April 15, 201 1, describes a process still image encoding compliant with the JPEG2000 compression standard.
- the still image data undergo discrete wavelet transform followed by quantization, thereby obtaining quantized wavelet coefficients to which quantization indices are respectively associated.
- Quantization indices obtained are encoded using an entropy coder.
- the quantized coefficients are previously grouped in rectangular blocks called codeblocks, typically of size 64x64 or 32x32. Each codeblock is then independently encoded by entropy coding.
- the entropic coder when coding a current block code, does not use the appearance probabilities of symbols calculated during the coding of previous codeblocks.
- the entropic coder is therefore in a state initialized at the beginning of coding a code-block.
- Such a method has the advantage of decoding the data of a code-block without having to decode neighboring code blocks.
- client software may require server software to provide compressed codeblocks that the client only needs to decode an identified sub-part of an image.
- Such a method also has the advantage of authorizing the encoding and / or the decoding in parallel of the code blocks.
- the smaller the code-blocks the higher the level of parallelism.
- the value of the level of parallelism is equal to the number of code blocks to be encoded in the image.
- the compression performance obtained with this method is not optimal considering that such a coding does not take advantage of probabilities arising from the immediate environment of the current code-block.
- One of the aims of the invention is to overcome disadvantages of the state of the art mentioned above.
- an object of the present invention relates to a method of encoding at least one image comprising the steps of:
- the coding step comprising, for the first block of the image, a substep of initialization of state variables of the entropy coding module,
- the current block is the first block to code a subset considered, it is proceeded to the determination of symbol occurrence probabilities for the first current block, the probabilities being those which have been determined for a predetermined coded and decoded block of at least one other subset,
- the writing step mentioned above amounts to carrying out, as soon as the last block of a subset of blocks has been coded, an emptying of the digital information (bits) not yet transmitted, as explained above. in the description.
- Coupling the aforementioned write step and the entropy coding module reset step produces an encoded data stream containing different data sub-streams corresponding to at least one coded block subset, respectively. said stream being adapted to be decoded in parallel according to different levels of parallelism, regardless of the type of coding, sequential or parallel, which has been applied to the subsets of blocks.

- the probabilities of appearance of symbols present in the CABAC decoder at the moment of the beginning of the decoding of the current block are exactly the ones that are present after decoding the previous block on that same line.
- step D33 the current block is decoded by iterating the steps D24 to D28 described above.
- step D34 step D29 for selecting the next block MB to be coded is again implemented.
- the decoding unit UDk performs a step identical to the aforementioned step D23, that is to say initializes again the an interval representative of the probability of appearance of a symbol contained in the predetermined set of symbols.
- a reset is shown in Figures 4A and 4B by a black dot at the beginning of each line SEk.
- the decoder DO is in a state initialized at each beginning of the line, which allows a great flexibility from the point of view of the choice of the level of decoding parallelism and an optimization of the processing time during decoding.
- the coder CO comprises a single coding unit UC, as shown in FIG. 3A, while the decoder DO comprises six decoding units.
- the encoding unit UC sequentially encodes the lines SE1, SE2, SE3, SE4, SE5 and SE6.
- the lines SE1 to SE4 are fully coded, the line SE5 is being coded and the line SE6 has not yet been coded.
- the coding unit UC is adapted to deliver a stream F which contains the substreams F1, F2, F3, F4 ordered one after the other, in the coding order of the lines SE1, SE2, SE3 and SE4.
- the substreams F1, F2, F3 and F4 are symbolized with the same hatching as those which respectively symbolize the lines SE1, SE2, SE3, SE4 encoded.
- the decoder DO whenever it reads a sub-stream to decode it, is in an initialized state and can therefore optimally decode in parallel the four sub-streams F1, F2, F3, F4 with decoding units UD1, UD2, UD3 and UD4 which can by example be installed on four different platforms.
- the coder CO comprises two coding units UC1 and UC2, as shown in FIG. 3C, while the decoder DO comprises six decoding units.
- the encoding unit UC1 sequentially codes the odd-rank lines SE1, SE3 and SE5, while the encoding unit UC2 sequentially encodes the even-numbered lines SE2, SE4 and SE6.
- lines SE1, SE3 and SE5 have a white background
- lines SE2, SE4 and SE6 have a dotted background.
- the lines SE1 to SE4 are fully encoded, the SE5 line is being coded and the SE6 line has not yet been coded.
- the coding unit UC1 is adapted to deliver a sub-flux F 2n + i broken down into two parts F1 and F3 obtained following the coding respectively of the lines SE1 and SE3
- the coding unit UC2 is adapted to deliver a sub-flux F 2n decomposed into two parts F2 and F4 obtained following the coding respectively lines SE2 and SE4.
- the encoder CO is therefore adapted to transmit to the decoder DO a stream F which contains the juxtaposition of the two substreams F 2n + 1 and F 2n and therefore a scheduling of the substreams F1, F3, F2, F4 which differs from that shown in FIG. 7A.
- the substreams F1, F2, F3 and F4 are symbolized with the same hatching as those which respectively symbolize the lines SE1, SE2, SE3, SE4 coded, the substreams F1 and F3 having a white background (coding lines of odd rank) and the substreams F2 and F4 having a dotted background (coding of lines of even rank).
- such a coding / decoding scheme also has the advantage of being able to have a decoder whose level of decoding parallelism is completely independent of the level of parallelism of the coding. which makes it possible to further optimize the operation of an encoder / decoder.
