Problems solved by technology

Through the above method, although the prediction efficiency of prediction mode estimation can be improved, but the processing load increases
Furthermore, even with such a method, since the relationship between the target block and the surrounding blocks is not evaluated, when the features of the surrounding blocks are different from the features of the image of the target block, similar to the method of the H.264 / AVC standard, it is possible to predict reduced performance

Abstract

In order to achieve higher coding efficiency, suppress coding artifacts, and not to need a large computing amount, an image and video data are coded. Provided is an image coding method of coding image data on a block-by-block basis, and the method includes: coding a current block according to a prediction based on a selected prediction mode (S101); determining an estimated prediction mode from among candidate prediction modes; and outputting the coded current block and mode information for reconstructing the selected prediction mode (S108). The determining includes: detecting an edge (S103); reducing the candidate prediction modes in number based on the detected edge (S105); determining the estimated prediction mode from among the candidate prediction modes reduced in number (S106); and generating the mode information based on the estimated prediction mode and the selected prediction mode (S107).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image encoding method for compressing and encoding images and video data with better encoding efficiency, an image decoding method for decoding compressed and encoded images and video data, and an image encoding device and image corresponding to these methods decoding device. Background technique [0002] The number of applications for video conferencing via the Internet, digital video broadcasting, and streaming including video content, for example for video-on-demand services, mainly by means of the transmission of video information, is constantly increasing. When video data is transmitted or recorded, a considerable amount of data is transmitted through a conventional transmission path with a limited bandwidth, or is stored in a conventional storage medium with a limited data capacity. In order to transmit and store video information on conventional transmission channels and storage media, it is essential to comp...
