Abstract
The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for hierarchically encoding an intra prediction mode in an image encoding / decoding apparatus. A method and apparatus for encoding a hierarchical intra prediction mode divides a given prediction mode into a predetermined group, and performs entropy decoding for the group and the actual prediction mode with an adaptive number of bits according to the mode of the neighboring block.
Description
The present invention relates to an image encoding / decoding apparatus and method, and more particularly, to an image encoding / decoding apparatus and method for hierarchically encoding an intra prediction mode.
Next-generation high efficiency video coding (HEVC), which is currently being standardized with H.264 / AVC, includes an intra picture coding method. In H.264 / AVC, there are 4x4, 8x8, and 16x16 block size prediction methods for luminance images, and 9, 9, and 4 prediction modes are used according to the block size. The next generation of high-efficiency video compression standards also use variable prediction modes depending on the block size. In H.264 / AVC and next-generation video compression standards, the prediction of the current intra prediction mode is performed by using the most probable mode (MPM) when the intra prediction mode is encoded. If the highest probability prediction mode and the current intra prediction mode are the same, only one bit of flag is transmitted.If the highest probability prediction mode and the current intra prediction mode are different, in addition to the one bit flag, the actual intra prediction for the current block is performed. Send the mode. At this time, the actual intra prediction mode is represented by fixed bits according to the number of modes. For example, in-picture prediction mode for a 4x4 block of H.264 / AVC using nine modes is one bit flag sent if it matches the highest probability prediction mode, and if it is different from the highest probability prediction mode. One bit of flag and three bits of actual intra prediction mode information are transmitted. In the next-generation video compression standard using 35 modes, in-picture prediction mode transmits one bit of the flag if it matches the highest probability prediction mode, one bit of the flag and five bits if it differs from the highest probability prediction mode. Six bits of actual intra prediction mode information are transmitted.
However, if the intra prediction mode does not match the highest probability prediction mode, a high bit amount is required for the actual intra prediction mode because fixed bits are used. In particular, since the number of intra prediction modes is greatly increased in the next generation video encoding compression, the transmission of the actual intra prediction modes using fixed bits causes a decrease in performance. Accordingly, there is a need for an efficient encoding technique for encoding an intra prediction mode.
An object of the present invention is to provide a method and apparatus for hierarchically encoding an intra picture mode by grouping a mode of a neighboring block and a given intra picture prediction mode.
The technical problems of the present invention are not limited to the technical problems mentioned above, and other technical problems not mentioned will be clearly understood by those skilled in the art from the following description.
In accordance with another aspect of the present invention, an image encoding apparatus includes an entropy decoder, an inverse quantization and inverse transform decoder, an intra prediction mode derivation unit, an intra prediction decoding unit, an inter prediction prediction decoder, and a reconstructed image storage. Contains wealth.
The hierarchical intra picture prediction encoding method and apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention provide an efficient intra picture mode compression method in encoding and decoding an intra picture prediction mode. Through efficient in-screen mode transmission, the overall video compression performance can be improved.

If the intra prediction mode and the highest probability prediction mode of the current block are different, the intra prediction mode for the current block is decoded (320). If the intra prediction mode and the highest probability prediction mode of the current block are the same, the intra prediction mode of the current block is derived using the neighboring block.

If the intra prediction mode and the highest probability prediction mode of the current block are different, the intra prediction mode for the current block is encoded (320). When the intra prediction mode and the highest probability prediction mode of the current block are the same, a flag for the highest probability prediction mode direction may be additionally transmitted 340. If the intra prediction mode and the highest probability prediction mode of the current block are the same, the intra prediction mode of the current block is derived according to the intra prediction mode and the highest prediction mode direction flag of the neighboring block. If the highest probability prediction mode is different, the intra prediction mode is derived using the decoded intra prediction mode (330).

In intra prediction mode decoding of the current block, the group flag is decoded 400, and according to the flag value, it is determined whether the group to which the intra prediction mode of the current block belongs is the same as the group to which the mode of the neighboring block belongs. If the group belonging to the intra prediction mode of the current block is different from the group of the neighboring block, the index of the group to which the current block belongs is decoded (420). The index of a group may be transmitted with an adaptive number of bits according to the number of remaining groups. If the group of the current block is the same as the group of neighboring blocks, the index for the intra prediction mode of the current block in the group is decoded (430). The intra prediction mode of the current block may be transmitted with an adaptive number of bits according to the number of modes belonging to the current group. The intra prediction mode of the current block is decoded using the decoded group flag or group index and the index within the decoded group.

If the group of the current block and the neighboring block is the same, a flag is decoded as to whether the group to which the intra prediction mode of the current block belongs is the same as the left block or the upper block (450). The index for the intra prediction mode of the current block in the group is decoded (430). The intra prediction mode of the current block may be transmitted with an adaptive number of bits according to the number of modes belonging to the current group.

7 illustrates a decoding process of FIG. 6 according to a first embodiment of the present invention. According to the decoding process of FIG. 7, it is determined whether the intra prediction mode for the current block is the same as the highest probability prediction mode (700). If the intra prediction mode of the current block is the same as the highest probability mode, it is determined whether the mode matches the mode of the left block or the mode of the upper block (701). When the intra prediction mode of the current block is the same as the highest probability mode, the intra prediction mode of the current block may be derived by 2-bit decoding. If the intra prediction mode of the current block is different from the highest probability mode, it is determined whether the group to which the intra prediction mode of the left neighboring block belongs to the group to which the intra prediction mode of the upper neighboring block belongs is the same. When the group to which the intra prediction mode of the left neighboring block belongs and the group to which the intra prediction mode of the upper neighboring block belongs are the same, it is determined whether the intra prediction mode of the current block belongs to the group of the neighboring block (703). If the intra prediction mode of the current block belongs to a group of neighboring blocks, it is determined whether the mode corresponding to the small mode among the modes belonging to the group matches (704). When the neighboring blocks have the same group and the intra prediction mode of the current block belongs to the group, the intra prediction mode can be derived by decoding of 3 bits. If the intra prediction mode of the current block is different from the group of the neighboring block, the index for the group is decoded, and the index for the mode belonging to the group is decoded. When the neighboring blocks have the same group, but the intra prediction mode of the current block is different from the group of the neighboring blocks, it is possible to derive the intra prediction mode by decoding 7 bits. If the group to which the intra prediction mode of the left neighboring block belongs and the group to which the intra prediction mode of the upper neighboring block belongs are different, it is determined whether the intra prediction mode of the current block belongs to the group of neighboring blocks (705). If the intra prediction mode of the current block belongs to the group of neighboring blocks, it is determined whether the group belongs to the group of the left block or the group of the upper block (706). If the intra prediction mode of the current block is the same as the intra prediction mode of the left block, it is determined whether the same mode is one of the modes belonging to the group (707). According to an embodiment, it may be determined whether the mode of the group is the same as the mode having the intermediate value of the mode number. In the case of one particular mode, an intra prediction mode may be derived through decoding of 4 bits. If it is different from one particular mode, the intra prediction mode may be derived through 5-bit decoding. If the intra prediction mode of the current block is the same as the intra prediction mode of the upper block, it is determined whether the same mode is one of the modes belonging to the group (708). According to an embodiment, it may be determined whether the mode of the group is the same as the mode having the intermediate value of the mode number. In the case of one particular mode, an intra prediction mode may be derived through decoding of 4 bits. If it is different from one particular mode, the intra prediction mode may be derived through 5-bit decoding. If the intra prediction mode of the current block does not belong to the group of neighboring blocks, the index for the group is decoded, and the index for the mode belonging to the group is decoded. When the group of neighboring blocks is different and the intra prediction mode of the current block is different from the group of the neighboring block, it is possible to derive the intra prediction mode by decoding 7 bits.
