Description

视频解码方法及视频解码器,视频编码方法及视频编码器
本申请要求于2018年9月21日提交中国国家知识产权局、申请号为201811107865.2、发明名称为“视频解码方法及视频解码器,视频编码方法及视频编码器”,以及于2018年9月29日提交中国国家知识产权局、申请号为201811150819.0、发明名称为“视频解码方法及视频解码器,视频编码方法及视频编码器”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。

视频编码(视频编码和解码)广泛用于数字视频应用,例如广播数字电视、互联网和移动网络上的视频传播、视频聊天和视频会议等实时会话应用、DVD和蓝光光盘、视频内容采集和编辑系统以及可携式摄像机的安全应用。
随着1990年H.261标准中基于块的混合型视频编码方式的发展,新的视频编码技术和工具得到发展并为新的视频编码标准形成基础。其它视频编码标准包括MPEG-1视频、MPEG-2视频、ITU-T H.262/MPEG-2、ITU-T H.263、ITU-T H.264/MPEG-4第10部分高级视频编码(Advanced Video Coding,AVC)、ITU-T H.265/高效视频编码(High Efficiency Video Coding,HEVC)…以及此类标准的扩展,例如可扩展性和/或3D(three-dimensional)扩展。随着视频创建和使用变得越来越广泛,视频流量成为通信网络和数据存储的最大负担。因此大多数视频编码标准的目标之一是相较之前的标准,在不牺牲图片质量的前提下减少比特率。即使最新的高效视频编码(High Efficiency video coding,HEVC)可以在不牺牲图片质量的前提下比AVC大约多压缩视频一倍,仍然亟需新技术相对HEVC进一步压缩视频。

具体实施方式

视频编码通常是指处理形成视频或视频序列的图片序列。在视频编码领域,术语“图片(picture)”、“帧(frame)”或“图像(image)”可以用作同义词。本申请(或本公开)中使用的视频编码表示视频编码或视频解码。视频编码在源侧执行,通常包括处理(例如,通过压缩)原始视频图片以减少表示该视频图片所需的数据量(从而更高效地存储和/或传输)。视频解码在目的地侧执行,通常包括相对于编码器作逆处理,以重构视频图片。实施例涉及的视频图片(或总称为图片,下文将进行解释)“编码”应理解为涉及视频序列的“编码”或“解码”。编码部分和解码部分的组合也称为编解码(编码和解码)。
无损视频编码情况下,可以重构原始视频图片,即经重构视频图片具有与原始视频图片相同的质量(假设存储或传输期间没有传输损耗或其它数据丢失)。在有损视频编码情况下,通过例如量化执行进一步压缩,来减少表示视频图片所需的数据量,而解码器侧无法完全重构视频图片,即经重构视频图片的质量相比原始视频图片的质量较低或较差。
H.261的几个视频编码标准属于“有损混合型视频编解码”(即,将样本域中的空间和时间预测与变换域中用于应用量化的2D变换编码结合)。视频序列的每个图片通常分割成不重叠的块集合,通常在块层级上进行编码。换句话说,编码器侧通常在块(视频块)层级处理亦即编码视频,例如,通过空间(图片内)预测和时间(图片间)预测来产生预测块,从当前块(当前处理或待处理的块)减去预测块以获得残差块,在变换域变换残差块并量化残差块,以减少待传输(压缩)的数据量,而解码器侧将相对于编码器的逆处理部分应用于经编码或经压缩块,以重构用于表示的当前块。另外,编码器复制解码器处理循环,使得编码器和解码器生成相同的预测(例如帧内预测和帧间预测)和/或重构,用于处理亦即编码后续块。
如本文中所用,术语“块”可以为图片或帧的一部分。为便于描述,参考多用途视频编码(VVC:Versatile Video Coding)或由ITU-T视频编码专家组(Video Coding Experts Group,VCEG)和ISO/IEC运动图像专家组(Motion Picture Experts Group,MPEG)的视频编码联合工作组(Joint Collaboration Team on Video Coding,JCT-VC)开发的高效视频编码(High-Efficiency Video Coding,HEVC)描述本发明实施例。本领域普通技术人员理解本发明实施例不限于HEVC或VVC。可以指CU、PU和TU。在HEVC中,通过使用表示为编码树的四叉树结构将CTU拆分为多个CU。在CU层级处作出是否使用图片间(时间)或图片内(空间)预测对图片区域进行编码的决策。每个CU可以根据PU拆分类型进一步拆分为一个、两个或四个PU。一个PU内应用相同的预测过程,并在PU基础上将相关信息传输到解码器。在通过基于PU拆分类型应用预测过程获取残差块之后,可以根据类似于用于CU的编码树的其它四叉树结构将CU分割成变换单元(transform unit,TU)。在视频压缩技术最新的发展中,使用四叉树和二叉树(Quad-tree and binary tree,QTBT)分割帧来分割编码块。在QTBT块结构中,CU可以为正方形或矩形形状。在VVC中,编码树单元(coding tree unit,CTU)首先由四叉树结构分割。四叉树叶节点进一步由二进制树结构分割。二进制树叶节点称为编码单元(coding unit,CU),所述分段用于预测和变换处理,无需其它任何分割。这表示CU、PU和TU在QTBT编码块结构中的块大小相同。同时,还提出与QTBT块结构一起使用多重分割,例如三叉树分割。
以下基于图1至4描述编码器20、解码器30和编码解码系统10、40的实施例(在基于图10更详细描述本发明实施例之前)。

图片源16(例如,视频源16)可以为,例如用于捕获图片的相机,例如图片存储器的存储器,包括或存储先前捕获或产生的图片,和/或获取或接收图片的任何类别的(内部或外部)接口。相机可以为,例如,本地的或集成在源设备中的集成相机,存储器可为本地的或例如集成在源设备中的集成存储器。接口可以为,例如,从外部视频源接收图片的外部接口,外部视频源例如为外部图片捕获设备,比如相机、外部存储器或外部图片生成设备,外部图片生成设备例如为外部计算机图形处理器、计算机或服务器。接口可以为根据任何专有或标准化接口协议的任何类别的接口,例如有线或无线接口、光接口。获取图片数据17的接口可以是与通信接口22相同的接口或是通信接口22的一部分。

编码器&编码方法
图2示出用于实现本申请(公开)技术的视频编码器20的实例的示意性/概念性框图。在图2的实例中,视频编码器20包括残差计算单元204、变换处理单元206、量化单元208、逆量化单元210、逆变换处理单元212、重构单元214、缓冲器216、环路滤波器单元220、经解码图片缓冲器(decoded picture buffer,DPB)230、预测处理单元260和熵编码单元270。预测处理单元260可以包含帧间预测单元244、帧内预测单元254和模式选择单元262。帧间预测单元244可以包含运动估计单元和运动补偿单元(未图示)。图2所示的视频编码器20也可以称为混合型视频编码器或根据混合型视频编解码器的视频编码器。
例如,残差计算单元204、变换处理单元206、量化单元208、预测处理单元260和熵编码单元270形成编码器20的前向信号路径,而例如逆量化单元210、逆变换处理单元212、重构单元214、缓冲器216、环路滤波器220、经解码图片缓冲器(decoded picture buffer,DPB)230、预测处理单元260形成编码器的后向信号路径,其中编码器的后向信号路径对应于解码器的信号路径(参见图3中的解码器30)。
编码器20通过例如输入202,接收图片201或图片201的块203,例如,形成视频或视频序列的图片序列中的图片。图片块203也可以称为当前图片块或待编码图片块,图片201可以称为当前图片或待编码图片(尤其是在视频编码中将当前图片与其它图片区分开时,其它图片例如同一视频序列亦即也包括当前图片的视频序列中的先前经编码和/或经解码图片)。
分割
编码器20的实施例可以包括分割单元(图2中未绘示),用于将图片201分割成多个例如块203的块,通常分割成多个不重叠的块。分割单元可以用于对视频序列中所有图片使用相同的块大小以及定义块大小的对应栅格,或用于在图片或子集或图片群组之间更改块大小,并将每个图片分割成对应的块。
在一个实例中,视频编码器20的预测处理单元260可以用于执行上述分割技术的任何组合。
如图片201,块203也是或可以视为具有亮度值(采样值)的采样点的二维阵列或矩阵,虽然其尺寸比图片201小。换句话说,块203可以包括,例如,一个采样阵列(例如黑白图片201情况下的亮度阵列)或三个采样阵列(例如,彩色图片情况下的一个亮度阵列和两个色度阵列)或依据所应用的色彩格式的任何其它数目和/或类别的阵列。块203的水平和垂直方向(或轴线)上采样点的数目定义块203的尺寸。
如图2所示的编码器20用于逐块编码图片201,例如,对每个块203执行编码和预测。
残差计算
残差计算单元204用于基于图片块203和预测块265(下文提供预测块265的其它细节)计算残差块205,例如,通过逐样本(逐像素)将图片块203的样本值减去预测块265的样本值,以在样本域中获取残差块205。
变换
变换处理单元206用于在残差块205的样本值上应用例如离散余弦变换(discrete cosine transform,DCT)或离散正弦变换(discrete sine transform,DST)的变换,以在变换域中获取变换系数207。变换系数207也可以称为变换残差系数,并在变换域中表示残差块205。
变换处理单元206可以用于应用DCT/DST的整数近似值,例如为HEVC/H.265指定的变换。与正交DCT变换相比,这种整数近似值通常由某一因子按比例缩放。为了维持经正变换和逆变换处理的残差块的范数,应用额外比例缩放因子作为变换过程的一部分。比例缩放因子通常是基于某些约束条件选择的,例如,比例缩放因子是用于移位运算的2的幂、变换系数的位深度、准确性和实施成本之间的权衡等。例如,在解码器30侧通过例如逆变换处理单元212为逆变换(以及在编码器20侧通过例如逆变换处理单元212为对应逆变换)指定具体比例缩放因子,以及相应地,可以在编码器20侧通过变换处理单元206为正变换指定对应比例缩放因子。
量化
量化单元208用于例如通过应用标量量化或向量量化来量化变换系数207,以获得经量化变换系数209。经量化变换系数209也可以称为经量化残差系数209。量化过程可以减少与部分或全部变换系数207有关的位深度。例如,可在量化期间将n位变换系数向下舍入到m位变换系数,其中n大于m。可通过调整量化参数(quantization parameter,QP)修改量化程度。例如,对于标量量化,可以应用不同的标度来实现较细或较粗的量化。较小量化步长对应较细量化,而较大量化步长对应较粗量化。可以通过量化参数(quantization parameter,QP)指示合适的量化步长。例如,量化参数可以为合适的量化步长的预定义集合的索引。例如,较小的量化参数可以对应精细量化(较小量化步长),较大量化参数可以对应粗糙量化(较大量化步长),反之亦然。量化可以包含除以量化步长以及例如通过逆量化210执行的对应的量化或逆量化,或者可以包含乘以量化步长。根据例如HEVC的一些标准的实施例可以使用量化参数来确定量化步长。一般而言,可以基于量化参数使用包含除法的等式的定点近似来计算量化步长。可以引入额外比例缩放因子来进行量化和反量化,以恢复可能由于在用于量化步长和量化参数的等式的定点近似中使用的标度而修改的残差块的范数。在一个实例实施方式中,可以合并逆变换和反量化的标度。或者,可以使用自定义量化表并在例如比特流中将其从编码器通过信号发送到解码器。量化是有损操作,其中量化步长越大,损耗越大。
逆量化单元210用于在经量化系数上应用量化单元208的逆量化,以获得经反量化系数211,例如,基于或使用与量化单元208相同的量化步长,应用量化单元208应用的量化 方案的逆量化方案。经反量化系数211也可以称为经反量化残差系数211,对应于变换系数207,虽然由于量化造成的损耗通常与变换系数不相同。
逆变换处理单元212用于应用变换处理单元206应用的变换的逆变换,例如,逆离散余弦变换(discrete cosine transform,DCT)或逆离散正弦变换(discrete sine transform,DST),以在样本域中获取逆变换块213。逆变换块213也可以称为逆变换经反量化块213或逆变换残差块213。
重构单元214(例如,求和器214)用于将逆变换块213(即经重构残差块213)添加至预测块265,以在样本域中获取经重构块215,例如,将经重构残差块213的样本值与预测块265的样本值相加。
可选地,例如线缓冲器216的缓冲器单元216(或简称“缓冲器”216)用于缓冲或存储经重构块215和对应的样本值,用于例如帧内预测。在其它的实施例中,编码器可以用于使用存储在缓冲器单元216中的未经滤波的经重构块和/或对应的样本值来进行任何类别的估计和/或预测,例如帧内预测。
例如,编码器20的实施例可以经配置以使得缓冲器单元216不只用于存储用于帧内预测254的经重构块215,也用于环路滤波器单元220(在图2中未示出),和/或,例如使得缓冲器单元216和经解码图片缓冲器单元230形成一个缓冲器。其它实施例可以用于将经滤波块221和/或来自经解码图片缓冲器230的块或样本(图2中均未示出)用作帧内预测254的输入或基础。
环路滤波器单元220(或简称“环路滤波器”220)用于对经重构块215进行滤波以获得经滤波块221,从而顺利进行像素转变或提高视频质量。环路滤波器单元220旨在表示一个或多个环路滤波器,例如去块滤波器、样本自适应偏移(sample-adaptive offset,SAO)滤波器或其它滤波器,例如双边滤波器、自适应环路滤波器(adaptive loop filter,ALF),或锐化或平滑滤波器,或协同滤波器。尽管环路滤波器单元220在图2中示出为环内滤波器,但在其它配置中,环路滤波器单元220可实施为环后滤波器。经滤波块221也可以称为经滤波的经重构块221。经解码图片缓冲器230可以在环路滤波器单元220对经重构编码块执行滤波操作之后存储经重构编码块。
编码器20(对应地,环路滤波器单元220)的实施例可以用于输出环路滤波器参数(例如,样本自适应偏移信息),例如,直接输出或由熵编码单元270或任何其它熵编码单元熵编码后输出,例如使得解码器30可以接收并应用相同的环路滤波器参数用于解码。
经解码图片缓冲器(decoded picture buffer,DPB)230可以为存储参考图片数据供视频编码器20编码视频数据之用的参考图片存储器。DPB 230可由多种存储器设备中的任一个形成,例如动态随机存储器(dynamic random access memory,DRAM)(包含同步DRAM(synchronous DRAM,SDRAM)、磁阻式RAM(magnetoresistive RAM,MRAM)、电阻式RAM(resistive RAM,RRAM))或其它类型的存储器设备。可以由同一存储器设备或单独的存储器设备提供DPB 230和缓冲器216。在某一实例中,经解码图片缓冲器(decoded picture buffer,DPB)230用于存储经滤波块221。经解码图片缓冲器230可以进一步用于 存储同一当前图片或例如先前经重构图片的不同图片的其它先前的经滤波块,例如先前经重构和经滤波块221,以及可以提供完整的先前经重构亦即经解码图片(和对应参考块和样本)和/或部分经重构当前图片(和对应参考块和样本),例如用于帧间预测。在某一实例中,如果经重构块215无需环内滤波而得以重构,则经解码图片缓冲器(decoded picture buffer,DPB)230用于存储经重构块215。
预测处理单元260,也称为块预测处理单元260,用于接收或获取块203(当前图片201的当前块203)和经重构图片数据,例如来自缓冲器216的同一(当前)图片的参考样本和/或来自经解码图片缓冲器230的一个或多个先前经解码图片的参考图片数据231,以及用于处理这类数据进行预测,即提供可以为经帧间预测块245或经帧内预测块255的预测块265。
模式选择单元262可以用于选择预测模式(例如帧内或帧间预测模式)和/或对应的用作预测块265的预测块245或255,以计算残差块205和重构经重构块215。
模式选择单元262的实施例可以用于选择预测模式(例如,从预测处理单元260所支持的那些预测模式中选择),所述预测模式提供最佳匹配或者说最小残差(最小残差意味着传输或存储中更好的压缩),或提供最小信令开销(最小信令开销意味着传输或存储中更好的压缩),或同时考虑或平衡以上两者。模式选择单元262可以用于基于码率失真优化(rate distortion optimization,RDO)确定预测模式,即选择提供最小码率失真优化的预测模式,或选择相关码率失真至少满足预测模式选择标准的预测模式。
下文将详细解释编码器20的实例(例如,通过预测处理单元260)执行的预测处理和(例如,通过模式选择单元262)执行的模式选择。
如上文所述,编码器20用于从(预先确定的)预测模式集合中确定或选择最好或最优的预测模式。预测模式集合可以包括例如帧内预测模式和/或帧间预测模式。
帧内预测模式集合可以包括35种不同的帧内预测模式,例如,如DC(或均值)模式和平面模式的非方向性模式,或如H.265中定义的方向性模式,或者可以包括67种不同的帧内预测模式,例如,如DC(或均值)模式和平面模式的非方向性模式,或如正在发展中的H.266中定义的方向性模式。
(可能的)帧间预测模式集合取决于可用参考图片(即,例如前述存储在DBP 230中的至少部分经解码图片)和其它帧间预测参数,例如取决于是否使用整个参考图片或只使用参考图片的一部分,例如围绕当前块的区域的搜索窗区域,来搜索最佳匹配参考块,和/或例如取决于是否应用如半像素和/或四分之一像素内插的像素内插。
除了以上预测模式,也可以应用跳过模式和/或直接模式。
预测处理单元260可以进一步用于将块203分割成较小的块分区或子块,例如,通过迭代使用四叉树(quad-tree,QT)分割、二叉树(binary-tree,BT)分割或三叉树(triple-tree or ternary-tree,TT)分割,或其任何组合,以及用于例如为块分区或子块中的每一个执行预测,其中模式选择包括选择分割的块203的树结构和选择应用于块分区或子块中的每一个的预测模式。
帧间预测单元244可以包含运动估计(motion estimation,ME)单元(图2中未示出)和运动补偿(motion compensation,MC)单元(图2中未示出)。运动估计单元用于接收或获取图片块203(当前图片201的当前图片块203)和经解码图片231,或至少一个或多个先前经重构块,例如,一个或多个其它/不同先前经解码图片231的经重构块,来进行运动估计。例如,视频序列可以包括当前图片和先前经解码图片31,或换句话说,当前图片和先前经解码图片31可以是形成视频序列的图片序列的一部分,或者形成该图片序列。
例如,编码器20可以用于从多个其它图片中的同一或不同图片的多个参考块中选择参考块,并向运动估计单元(图2中未示出)提供参考图片(或参考图片索引)和/或提供参考块的位置(X、Y坐标)与当前块的位置之间的偏移(空间偏移)作为帧间预测参数。该偏移也称为运动向量(motion vector,MV)。
运动补偿单元用于获取,例如接收帧间预测参数,并基于或使用帧间预测参数执行帧间预测来获取帧间预测块245。由运动补偿单元(图2中未示出)执行的运动补偿可以包含基于通过运动估计(可能执行对子像素精确度的内插)确定的运动/块向量取出或生成预测块。内插滤波可从已知像素样本产生额外像素样本,从而潜在地增加可用于编码图片块的候选预测块的数目。一旦接收到用于当前图片块的PU的运动向量,运动补偿单元246可以在一个参考图片列表中定位运动向量指向的预测块。运动补偿单元246还可以生成与块和视频条带相关联的语法元素,以供视频解码器30在解码视频条带的图片块时使用。
帧内预测单元254用于获取,例如接收同一图片的图片块203(当前图片块)和一个或多个先前经重构块,例如经重构相邻块,以进行帧内估计。例如,编码器20可以用于从多个(预定)帧内预测模式中选择帧内预测模式。
编码器20的实施例可以用于基于优化标准选择帧内预测模式,例如基于最小残差(例如,提供最类似于当前图片块203的预测块255的帧内预测模式)或最小码率失真。
帧内预测单元254进一步用于基于如所选择的帧内预测模式的帧内预测参数确定帧内预测块255。在任何情况下,在选择用于块的帧内预测模式之后,帧内预测单元254还用于向熵编码单元270提供帧内预测参数,即提供指示所选择的用于块的帧内预测模式的信息。在一个实例中,帧内预测单元254可以用于执行下文描述的帧内预测技术的任意组合。
熵编码单元270用于将熵编码算法或方案(例如,可变长度编码(variable length coding,VLC)方案、上下文自适应VLC(context adaptive VLC,CAVLC)方案、算术编码方案、上下文自适应二进制算术编码(context adaptive binary arithmetic coding,CABAC)、基于语法的上下文自适应二进制算术编码(syntax-based context-adaptive binary arithmetic coding,SBAC)、概率区间分割熵(probability interval partitioning entropy,PIPE)编码或其它熵编码方法或技术)应用于经量化残差系数209、帧间预测参数、帧内预测参数和/或环路滤波器参数中的单个或所有上(或不应用),以获得可以通过输出272以例如经编码比特流21的形式输出的经编码图片数据21。可以将经编码比特流传输到视频解码器30,或将其存档稍后由视频解码器30传输或检索。熵编码单元270还可用于熵编码正被编码的当前视频条带的其它语法元素。
视频编码器20的其它结构变型可用于编码视频流。例如,基于非变换的编码器20可以在没有针对某些块或帧的变换处理单元206的情况下直接量化残差信号。在另一实施方式中,编码器20可具有组合成单个单元的量化单元208和逆量化单元210。
图3示出示例性视频解码器30,用于实现本申请的技术。视频解码器30用于接收例如由编码器20编码的经编码图片数据(例如,经编码比特流)21,以获得经解码图片231。在解码过程期间,视频解码器30从视频编码器20接收视频数据,例如表示经编码视频条带的图片块的经编码视频比特流及相关联的语法元素。
在图3的实例中,解码器30包括熵解码单元304、逆量化单元310、逆变换处理单元312、重构单元314(例如求和器314)、缓冲器316、环路滤波器320、经解码图片缓冲器330以及预测处理单元360。预测处理单元360可以包含帧间预测单元344、帧内预测单元354和模式选择单元362。在一些实例中,视频解码器30可执行大体上与参照图2的视频编码器20描述的编码遍次互逆的解码遍次。
熵解码单元304用于对经编码图片数据21执行熵解码,以获得例如经量化系数309和/或经解码的编码参数(图3中未示出),例如,帧间预测、帧内预测参数、环路滤波器参数和/或其它语法元素中(经解码)的任意一个或全部。熵解码单元304进一步用于将帧间预测参数、帧内预测参数和/或其它语法元素转发至预测处理单元360。视频解码器30可接收视频条带层级和/或视频块层级的语法元素。
逆量化单元310功能上可与逆量化单元110相同,逆变换处理单元312功能上可与逆变换处理单元212相同,重构单元314功能上可与重构单元214相同,缓冲器316功能上可与缓冲器216相同,环路滤波器320功能上可与环路滤波器220相同,经解码图片缓冲器330功能上可与经解码图片缓冲器230相同。
预测处理单元360可以包括帧间预测单元344和帧内预测单元354,其中帧间预测单元344功能上可以类似于帧间预测单元244,帧内预测单元354功能上可以类似于帧内预测单元254。预测处理单元360通常用于执行块预测和/或从经编码数据21获取预测块365,以及从例如熵解码单元304(显式地或隐式地)接收或获取预测相关参数和/或关于所选择的预测模式的信息。
当视频条带经编码为经帧内编码(I)条带时,预测处理单元360的帧内预测单元354用于基于信号表示的帧内预测模式及来自当前帧或图片的先前经解码块的数据来产生用于当前视频条带的图片块的预测块365。当视频帧经编码为经帧间编码(即B或P)条带时,预测处理单元360的帧间预测单元344(例如,运动补偿单元)用于基于运动向量及从熵解码单元304接收的其它语法元素生成用于当前视频条带的视频块的预测块365。对于帧间预测,可从一个参考图片列表内的一个参考图片中产生预测块。视频解码器30可基于存储于DPB 330中的参考图片,使用默认建构技术来建构参考帧列表:列表0和列表1。
预测处理单元360用于通过解析运动向量和其它语法元素,确定用于当前视频条带的视频块的预测信息,并使用预测信息产生用于正经解码的当前视频块的预测块。例如,预测处理单元360使用接收到的一些语法元素确定用于编码视频条带的视频块的预测模式 (例如,帧内或帧间预测)、帧间预测条带类型(例如,B条带、P条带或GPB条带)、用于条带的参考图片列表中的一个或多个的建构信息、用于条带的每个经帧间编码视频块的运动向量、条带的每个经帧间编码视频块的帧间预测状态以及其它信息,以解码当前视频条带的视频块。
逆量化单元310可用于逆量化(即,反量化)在比特流中提供且由熵解码单元304解码的经量化变换系数。逆量化过程可包含使用由视频编码器20针对视频条带中的每一视频块所计算的量化参数来确定应该应用的量化程度并同样确定应该应用的逆量化程度。
逆变换处理单元312用于将逆变换(例如,逆DCT、逆整数变换或概念上类似的逆变换过程)应用于变换系数,以便在像素域中产生残差块。
重构单元314(例如,求和器314)用于将逆变换块313(即经重构残差块313)添加到预测块365,以在样本域中获取经重构块315,例如通过将经重构残差块313的样本值与预测块365的样本值相加。
环路滤波器单元320(在编码循环期间或在编码循环之后)用于对经重构块315进行滤波以获得经滤波块321,从而顺利进行像素转变或提高视频质量。在一个实例中,环路滤波器单元320可以用于执行下文描述的滤波技术的任意组合。环路滤波器单元320旨在表示一个或多个环路滤波器,例如去块滤波器、样本自适应偏移(sample-adaptive offset,SAO)滤波器或其它滤波器,例如双边滤波器、自适应环路滤波器(adaptive loop filter,ALF),或锐化或平滑滤波器,或协同滤波器。尽管环路滤波器单元320在图3中示出为环内滤波器,但在其它配置中,环路滤波器单元320可实施为环后滤波器。
随后将给定帧或图片中的经解码视频块321存储在存储用于后续运动补偿的参考图片的经解码图片缓冲器330中。
解码器30用于例如,藉由输出332输出经解码图片31,以向用户呈现或供用户查看。
视频解码器30的其它变型可用于对压缩的比特流进行解码。例如,解码器30可以在没有环路滤波器单元320的情况下生成输出视频流。例如,基于非变换的解码器30可以在没有针对某些块或帧的逆变换处理单元312的情况下直接逆量化残差信号。在另一实施方式中,视频解码器30可以具有组合成单个单元的逆量化单元310和逆变换处理单元312。

图5是根据一示例性实施例的可用作图1中的源设备12和目的地设备14中的任一个或两个的装置500的简化框图。装置500可以实现本申请的技术,装置500可以采用包含多个计算设备的计算系统的形式,或采用例如移动电话、平板计算机、膝上型计算机、笔记本电脑、台式计算机等单个计算设备的形式。
装置500中的处理器502可以为中央处理器。或者,处理器502可以为现有的或今后将研发出的能够操控或处理信息的任何其它类型的设备或多个设备。如图所示,虽然可以使用例如处理器502的单个处理器实践所揭示的实施方式,但是使用一个以上处理器可以实现速度和效率方面的优势。
在一实施方式中,装置500中的存储器504可以为只读存储器(Read Only Memory,ROM)设备或随机存取存储器(random access memory,RAM)设备。任何其他合适类型的存储设备都可以用作存储器504。存储器504可以包括代码和由处理器502使用总线512访问的数据506。存储器504可进一步包括操作系统508和应用程序510,应用程序510包含至少一个准许处理器502执行本文所描述的方法的程序。例如,应用程序510可以包括应用1到N,应用1到N进一步包括执行本文所描述的方法的视频编码应用。装置500还可包含采用从存储器514形式的附加存储器,该从存储器514例如可以为与移动计算设备一起使用的存储卡。因为视频通信会话可能含有大量信息,这些信息可以整体或部分存储在从存储器514中,并按需要加载到存储器504用于处理。

在通用视频编码(VVC:versatile video coding)标准草案2.0中,除了传统的离散余弦变换2(DCT2:Discrete Cosine Transform 2)变换核外,还引入了两种新的变换核,即DCT8和离散正弦变换7(DST7:Discrete Sine Transform)。如表1所示,为这些变换核对应的基函数,他们呈现不同的分布特性。
表1 DCT和DST变换基函数
Figure PCTCN2019106383-appb-000008
对于预测残差,由于不同的预测模式具有不同的残差特性,因此,采用多核变换技术多核变换选择(MTS:multiple transform selection)可以充分利用不同变换矩阵的特性来较好适应这些残差特性,从而实现提升编码压缩性能的目的。
在确定了变换核后,可以根据变换核对应的基函数获取对应的变换矩阵,例如DCT2矩阵,DST7矩阵,DCT8矩阵等等。
在VVC标准草案测试模型(VTM2.0)JVET-K1002中的MTS方案如表2所示:
表2一种MTS方案
Figure PCTCN2019106383-appb-000009
表中A、B表示变换矩阵,A=DST7矩阵;B=DCT8矩阵。变换尺寸(变换矩阵大小)包括:4x4,8x8,16x16,32x32。水平方向/垂直方向的变换矩阵可以组合出4种变换矩阵对,分别对应不同的编号index。这些index写入码流,告知解码器采用哪组变换矩阵对。
以表2所示的MTS方案为例,在编码端进行变换处理时,遍历表2中的4组变换矩阵对,利用每组变换矩阵对对预测残差块进行水平和垂直变换,挑选rate-distortion cost最小的变换 矩阵对,并将该变换矩阵对的index写入码流。其中,在确定了对应的变换矩阵对后(假设为index 1对应的变换矩阵对),利用变换矩阵AH和B对预测残差块R进行变换(即矩阵相乘)得到变换系数块F。
F=B*R*A’
然后将系数块F进行熵编码写入码流。
在解码端进行反变换处理时,解码获得变换矩阵对的index确定需要采用的变换矩阵对,并利用该变换矩阵对对解码获得的系数块进行垂直和水平方向的反变换,得到预测残差块(重建残差块)。具体地,利用A矩阵和B矩阵对解码获得的变换系数块F进行反变换(即矩阵相乘)得到残差块R。
R=B’*F*A
其中,A’表示A矩阵的转置矩阵,B’表示B矩阵的转置矩阵,由于A矩阵和B矩阵都为正交矩阵,转置相当于求逆矩阵。
其中,矩阵乘法在电路实现时,一般采用蝶形快速算法(partial butterfly),从而可以利用矩阵系数的对称性,减少所需乘法的次数。但是DST7和DCT8变换,并不存在类似DCT2变换的蝶形快速算法(partial butterfly);因此只能用矩阵乘法,计算复杂度(如乘法次数)高。同时,DST7和DCT8的变换矩阵的系数需要存储,考虑到不同尺寸,需要存储的系数数量高达2*(4x4+8x8+16x16+32x32)=2720。
需要指出的是,除了上述变换矩阵A,B外,VVC标准草案还利用了DCT2矩阵作为变换矩阵,尺寸大小包括4x4~128x128。
在另一种实现方式中,提出了一种MTS的简化方案,如表3所示:

其中,C=DST4矩阵;D=DCT4矩阵,即利用DST4矩阵和DCT4矩阵替换现有技术2中的DST7矩阵和DCT8矩阵。DST4和DCT4具有相近的变换核基函数特性,具体的变换基函数如表4。

Figure PCTCN2019106383-appb-000011
在确定了变换核为DST4和DCT4后,可以根据变换核对应的基函数获取对应的变换矩阵,即DST4矩阵和DCT4矩阵。
基于表1和表4的基函数,可以获得如下的变换矩阵示例:

从上面各个变换矩阵可以看出来,8X8 DCT2矩阵的系数中包含了4X4 DCT2矩阵(如表5中加粗斜体部分系数与表6系数相同)和4X4 DCT4矩阵(如表5中加下划线部分系数与表7系数相同)的所有系数。再由表7和表8可以看出,DST4矩阵可用通过对DCT4矩阵进行镜像(FLIP)和符号变换获得。
为了验证表3描述的MTS算法与表2描述的MTS算法之间的效果,在VVC参考软件VTM-2.0平台上对表3描述的MTS算法进行了性能测试,对比表2描述的MTS算法获得的测试数据如表9和表10所示。

图6描述了HEVC中16×16 DCT2矩阵的蝶形快速算法电路实现,从图6可以看出,16×16 DCT2矩阵的蝶形快速算法电路中包括了4×4 DCT2矩阵,8×8 DCT2矩阵,4×4 DCT4矩阵以及8×8 DCT4矩阵的实现电路,也就是说,在实现4×4 DCT2矩阵,8×8 DCT2矩阵,4×4 DCT4矩阵以及8×8 DCT4矩阵的变换时可以直接复用16×16 DCT2矩阵的电路实现;但是只有4×4 DCT2矩阵和8×8 DCT2矩阵可以复用蝶形快速算法电路,而4×4 DCT4矩阵以及8×8 DCT4矩阵的实现虽然能够复用16×16 DCT2矩阵的实现电路,但是并没有使用蝶形快速算法。
为了进一步降低MTS的实现复杂度,同时减少性能损失,本发明一个实施例提供的一 种MTS的实现方案如表11所示。

其中,C=DST4矩阵,E=DCT2’矩阵,DCT2’矩阵即DCT2矩阵的转置矩阵,符号“’”表示转置。实际上,DCT2矩阵的转置矩阵与DCT3矩阵一致。
其中,4×4 DST4矩阵的一种实现示例如表8所示。4×4 DCT2’矩阵的一种实现示例如表12所示。
表12 4×4 DCT2’变换矩阵示例
Figure PCTCN2019106383-appb-000019
对比表11和表3可以看出,表9利用DCT2’矩阵替换了表3中的DCT4矩阵。考虑到为DCT2’矩阵的变换/反变换实现时存在蝶形快速算法,因此可以进一步简化变换/反变换的实现。同时,在电路实现上仍可以复用DCT2矩阵对应的变换/反变换实现电路。而对于DST4矩阵的实现,如前面所示,DST4矩阵经过FLIP、符号变换等操作即可复用2Nx2N DCT2矩阵变换/反变换实现电路。
为了验证表11的MTS方案的效果,发明人在VVC参考软件VTM-2.0.1平台上对表11的技术方案进行了性能测试,相对于表2的MTS方案的编解码压缩性能如表13和表14所示。
表13
Figure PCTCN2019106383-appb-000020
表14
Figure PCTCN2019106383-appb-000021
从表13和表14可以看出,相比于表2描述的MTS方案,表11描述的MTS方案的平均编码比特率增加的微乎其微(在Y下,AI测试条件下编码比特增加0.01%,RA测试条件下编码比特增加0.02%),也就是说对编码压缩性能的影响几乎可以忽略,但是该方案利用了蝶形快速算法,能够简化变换/反变换的实现,如表中数据显示,编码时间有2%-4%的节省,解码时间也有一定的节省。同时,所使用的变换矩阵的系数可以简便地从2Nx2N DCT2矩阵中导出,不需要额外的存储空间;并且,所使用的变换矩阵的实现电路可以复用2Nx2N DCT2矩阵对应的变换/反变换实现电路,能够简化编解码器的实现电路的设计。
其中,为了明确本发明实施例中的变换矩阵的实现电路可以可以复用2Nx2N DCT2矩阵对应的变换/反变换实现电路,如下对电路复用进行具体的描述。例如,文献Core Transform Design in the High Efficiency Video Coding(HEVC)Standard所揭示的反变换电路的partial butterfly快速实现方法。DCT2矩阵反变换的实现,可以分解成EVEN、ODD和ADDSUB三个模块,其中EVEN表示利用由DCT2矩阵奇数行系数组成的矩阵进行列变换,ODD表示利用由DCT2矩阵偶数行系数组成的矩阵进行列变换,ADDSUB表示加减模块。
例如,图7描述了32×32的反变换实现电路,其中,Even4模块,Odd4模块以及Addsub4模块组成了4×4矩阵的反变换实现电路701;4×4矩阵的反变换实现电路701,Odd8模块以及Addsub8模块组成了8×8矩阵的反变换实现电路702;8×8矩阵的反变换实现电路702,Odd16模块以及Addsub16模块组成了16×16矩阵的反变换实现电路703;16×16矩阵的反变换电路实现703,Odd16模块以及Addsub16模块组成了32×32矩阵的反变换实现电路704。
图8描述了一种实现电路,如图8所示,Even4模块和Odd4模块的矩阵乘法电路可以被变换电路和反变换电路共享。
图9描述了8x8 DCT2矩阵的反变换架构,其中d n表示32x32 DCT2矩阵中的第n-th行第0列的系数,图9具体描述了EVEN模块实现和ODD模块实现矩阵乘法运算的内部结构。其中EVEN8和ODD8矩阵可以从2Nx2N DCT2矩阵获得。
具体地,8x8 DCT2矩阵如表15所示:
表15 8x8 DCT2矩阵
Figure PCTCN2019106383-appb-000022
Figure PCTCN2019106383-appb-000023
其中,4x4 EVEN8变换矩阵可以按照如下步骤获取:
获取从表15所示的8x8 DCT2矩阵的左半部分抽取奇数列系数(如表15中框起来的系数),组成如表16所示的4x4矩阵:
表16 4x4矩阵
Figure PCTCN2019106383-appb-000024
再对表16的矩阵进行转置,即可获得如表17所示的4x4变换矩阵EVEN8。其中,EVEN8矩阵实际上是DCT2’矩阵。

其中,4x4 ODD8变换矩阵可以按照如下步骤获取:
获取从表15所示的8x8 DCT2矩阵的右半部分抽取偶数列系数(如表15中加下划线的系数),组成如表18所示的4x4矩阵:
表18 4x4矩阵
Figure PCTCN2019106383-appb-000026
再对表18的矩阵进行转置或符号变换处理,即可获得如表19所示的4x4变换矩阵ODD8。其中,ODD8矩阵实际上DST4矩阵变形,例如可以对DST4矩阵进行符号变换,具体是对DST4矩阵的奇数列系数的负号进行取反即可获得ODD8矩阵。
表19 4x4 ODD8变换矩阵
Figure PCTCN2019106383-appb-000027
Figure PCTCN2019106383-appb-000028
从上面的描述可以看出,对于NxN的变换矩阵,可以从2Nx2N的DCT2矩阵中推导获得。因此只需要存储一个64x64的DCT2矩阵系数,即可推导获得32x32,16x16,8x8,4x4,2x2的矩阵系数。因此,并不需要额外的存储空间来存储32x32,16x16,8x8,4x4,2x2的矩阵系数。
通过比较表12和表16可知,表12和表16是一样的,也就是说4×4 DCT2’变换矩阵可以直接从8x8 DCT2矩阵推导出来,因此4×4 DCT2’变换矩阵的实现电路也包含在了2Nx2N DCT2的变换/反变换实现电路中,因此4×4 DCT2’变换矩阵的实现可以直接复用2Nx2N DCT2的实现电路。
再比较表8和表19可知,只需要对表8描述的矩阵进行符号变换(奇数列系数符号取反)即可获得表19所示的变换矩阵,即4x4 DST4矩阵可以直接从8x8 DCT2矩阵推导出来,因此4×4 DST4矩阵的实现电路也包含在了2Nx2N DCT2矩阵的变换/反变换实现电路中,因此4×4 DST4矩阵的实现可以直接复用2Nx2N DCT2的实现电路。
为了进一步降低MTS的实现复杂度,同时减少性能损失,本发明一个实施例提供的一种MTS的实现方案如表20所示。
表20一种MTS实现方案
Figure PCTCN2019106383-appb-000029
其中,C=DST4矩阵,E=DCT2’矩阵。其中,上面的变形可以是对矩阵按行或列进行符号变换(例如取反操作)。
针对不同的2Nx2N DCT2矩阵的电路实现,为达到复用电路的目的,对C矩阵和E矩阵的变形要求会有所不同。例如,在表3描述的MTS方案中提到,DST4矩阵要通过FLIP和符号变换处理(变成DCT4矩阵)来复用2Nx2N DCT2矩阵的实现电路;而在表11描述的MTS方案中提到,2Nx2N DCT2矩阵的实现电路实际上包含有0DD8矩阵,而DST4矩阵只需经过符号变换即可变成ODD8矩阵以实现复用。多种C矩阵和E矩阵的变形,可以更好适配不同的2Nx2N DCT2矩阵的实现电路,从而简化电路复用。
此外,某些C矩阵和E矩阵的变形,可以直接从2Nx2N DCT2矩阵中推导出,从而可以简化C矩阵和E矩阵的系数的导出过程。
作为一个例子,C矩阵的一种变形可以是对C矩阵的奇数行进行取反,得到如表21所示的:
表21 C矩阵的变形矩阵系数示例
Figure PCTCN2019106383-appb-000030
Figure PCTCN2019106383-appb-000031
通过比较表21和表19可知,表21和表19是一样的,可以直接从8x8 DCT2矩阵的系数中导出,无需任何附加操作,因此可以进一步简化C的变形矩阵的导出过程。同时,由于C的变形矩阵可以直接从2Nx2N DCT2矩阵中推导出,因此可以适配不同的2Nx2N DCT2矩阵的电路以实现简化电路复用,同时确保对编码压缩性能影响小。
为了验证表20的MTS方案的效果,发明人在VVC参考软件VTM-2.0.1平台上对表20的技术方案进行了性能测试,相对于表2的MTS方案的编解码压缩性能如表22和表23所示。

从上可知,在一种实施方式中,上述的DST4矩阵,DCT2’矩阵,DST4矩阵的变形或DCT2’矩阵的变形中的至少一个除了可以从8×8的DCT2矩阵中获得。由于编码器或解码器会保存8×8的DCT2矩阵,因此从8×8的DCT2矩阵中获得上述的DST4矩阵,DCT2’矩阵,DST4矩阵的变形或DCT2’矩阵的变形中的至少一个可以减少编码器或解码器需要存储的变换矩阵的数量,因此可以减少变换矩阵对编码器或解码器的存储空间的占用。
在另一种实施方式中,上述的DST4矩阵,DCT2’矩阵,DST4矩阵的变形或DCT2’矩阵的变形中的至少一个还可以可以直接从64×64的DCT2矩阵中获得。由于编码器或解码器会保存64×64的DCT2矩阵,因此从64×64的DCT2矩阵中获得上述的DST4矩阵,DCT2’矩阵,DST4矩阵的变形或DCT2’矩阵的变形中的至少一个可以减少编码器或解码器需要存储的变换矩阵的数量,因此可以减少变换矩阵对编码器或解码器的存储空间的占用。
在一种实施方式中,上述的64×64的DCT2矩阵可以如表34和表35所示(由于64×64 DCT2矩阵比较大,因此用两个表来表示,其中表34描述的是该矩阵的第0~15列(记为transMatrixCol0to15),表35描述的是该矩阵的第16~31列(记为transMatrixCol16to31))。

通过如下操作,即可通过表34和表35获得64x64的DCT2矩阵transMatrix。

transMatrix[m][n]=transMatrixCol16to31[m-16][n]with m=16..31,n=0..63
transMatrix[m][n]=(n&1?-1:1)*transMatrixCol16to31[47-m][n]
with m=32..47,n=0..63

在一种实施方式中,用trType来指示变换核,例如指示变换核为DST4矩阵/DST4矩阵的变形,还是DCT2’矩阵/DCT2’矩阵的变形。例如trType=1时表示变换矩阵为DST4矩阵,trType=2时表示变换矩阵为DCT2’矩阵;当然也可以反过来,即trType=2时表示变换矩阵为DST4矩阵,trType=1时表示变换矩阵为DCT2’矩阵。可以理解的是,trType还可以取别的值来指示DST4矩阵和DCT2’矩阵。本发明实施例对trType与变换矩阵之间的对应关系不做限定,只要trType的取值能够与变换矩阵一一对应就不会影响本发明实施例的实现。
例如,在变换矩阵为DST4矩阵,可以通过如下的公式(1)从64×64的DCT2矩阵推导出DST4矩阵:
Figure PCTCN2019106383-appb-000046
其中,transMatrix表示所述DCT2矩阵(64×64 DCT2矩阵),nTbs表示变换矩阵的大小,0≤i≤nTbS–1,0≤j≤nTbS–1;偏移量64-nTbs表示列的偏移,即偏移到64x64矩阵的最后nTbs列;偏移量
Figure PCTCN2019106383-appb-000047
表示行的偏移;(-1) j表示进行符号变换。
其中,在本发明实施例中,i表示变换矩阵中系数的列坐标,j表示变换矩阵中系数的行坐标。
例如,当nTbs=4,即DST4矩阵的大小为4×4时,根据公式(1)来推导得出4×4的DST4矩阵为:
Figure PCTCN2019106383-appb-000048
例如,当nTbs=8,即DST4矩阵的大小为8×8时,根据公式(1)来推导得出8×8的DST4矩阵为:
Figure PCTCN2019106383-appb-000049
在DST4矩阵的大小为16或者32时,也可以采用公式(1)推导得出,不再赘述。
例如,在变换矩阵为DCT2’矩阵,可以通过如下的公式(2)从64×64的DCT2矩阵推导出DCT2’矩阵:
transMatrix[j][i×2 6-Log2(nTbs)]      (2)
其中,transMatrix表示所述DCT2矩阵(64×64 DCT2矩阵),nTbs表示变换矩阵的大小,0≤i≤nTbS–1,0≤j≤nTbS–1。
例如,当nTbs=4,即DCT2’矩阵的大小为4×4时,根据公式(2)来推导得出4×4的DCT2’矩阵为:
Figure PCTCN2019106383-appb-000050
例如,当nTbs=8,即DCT2’矩阵的大小为8×8时,根据公式(2)来推导得出8×8的DCT2’矩阵为:
Figure PCTCN2019106383-appb-000051
在DCT2’矩阵的大小为16或者32时,也可以采用公式(2)推导得出,不再赘述。
其中,在一种实施方式中,编码器或解码器还可以从存储的大尺寸的DCT2矩阵推导出小尺寸的DCT2矩阵。例如,在所述大尺寸的DCT2矩阵的尺寸为64,即64×64时,可以根据如下公式(3)推导出尺寸小于64的DCT2矩阵。
transMatrix[i][j×2 6-Log2(nTbs)]     (3)
其中,transMatrix表示所述DCT2矩阵(64×64 DCT2矩阵),nTbs表示变换矩阵的大小,0≤i≤nTbS–1,0≤j≤nTbS–1。
对比公式(2)和(3)可以看出,其区别在于i和j的位置变化,表示通过公式(2)和(3)获得的矩阵互为转置。
图10描述了本发明一个实施例提供的视频解码方法的流程,该方法例如可以由图3所示的视频解码器来执行,该方法包括:
1001、解析接收的码流,以获得当前块进行逆变换处理的变换矩阵对的指示信息以及所述当前块的量化系数,所述变换矩阵对包括水平方向变换矩阵和垂直方向变换矩阵。
1002、对所述当前块的量化系数进行逆量化处理以获得所述当前块的反量化系数。
1003、根据所述指示信息从候选变换矩阵对中确定所述当前块进行逆变换处理的变换矩阵对;所述候选变换矩阵对所包括的水平方向变换矩阵和垂直方向变换矩阵均为预设的两个变换矩阵中的一个;所述两个变换矩阵中一个为DST4矩阵或DST4矩阵的变形,所述两个变换矩阵中的另一个为DCT2’矩阵或DCT2’矩阵的变形。
其中,候选变换矩阵对的数量可以为2个,3个或4个。
其中,任意一个所述候选变换矩阵对所包括的水平方向变换矩阵和垂直方向变换矩阵要么相同要么不同。
其中,在一种实施方式中,所述DST4矩阵的变形是通过对所述DST4矩阵中的至少一部分行或至少一部分列的系数进行符号变换获得,例如所述的符号变换可以是符号取反。
在一种实施方式中,所述DCT2’矩阵的变形是通过对所述DCT2’矩阵中的至少一部分行或至少一部分列的系数进行符号变换获得,例如所述的符号变换可以是符号取反。
例如,所述的候选变换矩阵对可以是如表11,表20,表24,表25,或表26-表33任一所描述的候选变换矩阵对。
其中,在一种实施方式中,所述候选变换矩阵对的数量为四个;当前块进行逆变换处理的变换矩阵对的指示信息即为表11,表20,表24或表25中的索引。以表11为例,若索引为0,则表示当前块进行逆变换处理的变换矩阵对中的垂直方向变换矩阵为DST4矩阵,数值变换矩阵为DST4矩阵;若索引为1,则表示当前块进行逆变换处理的变换矩阵对中的垂直方向变换矩阵为DST4矩阵,数值变换矩阵为DCT2’矩阵;若索引为2,则表示当前块进行逆变换处理的变换矩阵对中的垂直方向变换矩阵为DCT2’矩阵,数值变换矩阵为DST4矩阵;若索引为3,则表示当前块进行逆变换处理的变换矩阵对中的垂直方向变换矩阵为DCT2’矩阵,数值变换矩阵为DCT2’矩阵。表20,和表24-表33的索引的处理与表11类似,不再赘述。
