Abstract

The invention discloses an intra-frame prediction mode selection method and an intra-frame prediction mode selection system. The method comprises the following steps of: selecting one of Intra_4*4, Intra_8*8 and Intra_16*16 as an intra-frame prediction type of a current macroblock according to a frequency characteristic of the current macroblock; when the Intra_16*16 is selected, selecting one of intra-frame prediction modes which is selectable for the Intra_16*16 and has the minimum prediction error as the intra-frame prediction mode of the current macroblock; and when the Intra_8*8 or the Intra_4*4 is selected, dividing the current macroblock into four 8*8 pixel matrixes, namely B0, B1, B2 and B3 or 16 4*4 pixel matrixes from D0 to D15; and as to any 8*8 pixel matrix bi or 4*4 pixel matrix Dj, selecting a prediction direction for the pixel matrix Bi or Dj according to the relevance among the pixels in the pixel matrix Bi or Dj, and selecting one of the intra-frame prediction modes which is selectable for the Intra_8*8 or the Intra_4*4 and has the minimum prediction error in the prediction direction for the pixel matrix Bi or Dj as the intra-frame prediction mode of the pixel matrix Bi or Dj.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of image processing, and more particularly relates to a method and system for selecting an intra-frame prediction mode. Background technique [0002] H.264 is the latest international video coding standard jointly developed by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). In the H.264 standard, intra-frame prediction is an important technology to improve compression efficiency, that is, during the encoding process, for a certain area (usually a rectangular block) to be encoded in the video image, search The most similar and already coded block is used to predict the current block to be coded. [0003] For color video images, each frame of video image includes a luma component frame and a chroma component frame. For luma component frames, the H.264 standard has two prediction types: Intra_16×16 (ie, 16×16 intra prediction) and Intra_4×4 (ie, 4×4 ...
