Abstract

Disclosed are a device, a method, and a program for image processing capable of reducing overhead and improving encoding efficiency. An interpolating filter (84) with strong symmetry has a variable filter factor, and applies a predetermined symmetry on more pixels than an interpolating filter (82) with weak symmetry. The interpolating filter (84) with strong symmetry filters a reference image from a frame memory (72) using 18 filter factors calculated by a filter-factor calculating unit (85) with strong symmetry, and outputs the reference image after variable filtering to a selector (86). When a slice to be processed is a B slice, the selector (86) selects the reference image after variable filtering output from the interpolating filter (84) with strong symmetry, and outputs the image to a motion predicting unit (87) and a motion compensating unit (88) under the control of a control unit (90). The present invention is applicable to, for example, an image encoding device that encodes on the basis of the H.264 / AVC standard.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image processing device, method and program, in particular to an image processing device, method and program capable of reducing overhead and improving coding efficiency in the case of B slices. Background technique [0002] H.264 and MPEG-4 Part 10 (Advanced Video Coding, hereinafter referred to as H.264 / AVC) can be used as standard specifications for compressing image information. [0003] In H.264 / AVC, inter prediction focusing on the correlation between frames or fields is performed. In the motion compensation processing performed in the inter prediction, a part of the stored and referable image area is used to generate a predicted image by inter prediction (hereinafter referred to as an inter predicted image). [0004] For example, in figure 1 As shown in , when 5 frames of images that have been stored and can be referred to are determined as reference frames, a part of an image (hereinafter referred to as a r...
