[0015] The disadvantage of this technique is that by predicting all selected symbols globally, each symbol is affected by the values ​​of other symbols and the prediction gets worse

[0140] According to the first embodiment of the present invention, this step T5 includes the following sub-steps:

[0141] at E5 1 , we consider the current sequence Seq c , which is initialized to the initial sequence Seqi.

[0142] The following steps form an iterative loop, which depends on the sequence Seq c The number M of descriptive elements to be predicted selected in is repeated several times.

[0143] The description element may take at least two values. For example, the sign could be + or -.

[0144] In step E5 2 During, the sequence Seq of elements to be predicted is evaluated using the evaluation function FE or a predetermined cost criterion c Different possibilities or assumptions for combinations of values ​​for . We assume that we have K hypotheses or possible combinations, where K is a non-zero integer. In the case where the descriptor element to be predicted is a sequence of M symbols, the symbols can take the value + or the value -, the number of pos...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for encoding a digital image, said image (Im) being divided into a plurality of blocks of pixels (C) processed in a defined order, said method comprising the following steps, implemented for a current block, of processing (E1) the current block intended to provide a set of description elements of the processed block; selecting (E2) a subset of at least two description elements to predict in the provided set; ordering (E4) the description elements of the subset into an ordered sequence; encoding elements of the sequence. According to the invention, the step ofencoding the elements of the sequence includes browsing the elements of the sequence and includes, for a current element, the following sub-steps: selecting a combination of the values of the description elements of the sequence from a plurality of combinations as a function of a predetermined cost criterion and, from the second element, values of description elements previously processed in the sequence; predicting the current element of the sequence from the value thereof in the selected combination; encoding an indicator representing a difference between the actual value of the current element and its predicted value.

Description

technical field [0001] The field of the invention is that of signal compression, in particular of digital images or sequences of digital images, in which a part of the signal to be coded is predicted from a part of the coded signal. [0002] Encoding / decoding of digital images applies in particular to images from at least one video sequence, which includes the following: [0003] - images from the same camera and temporally succeeding each other (type - 2D encoding / decoding), [0004] - images from different cameras oriented according to different views (3D-type encoding / decoding), [0005] - components of the corresponding texture and depth (3D-type encoding / decoding), [0006] -etc. [0007] The invention applies in a similar manner to 2D or 3D type encoding / decoding of images. [0008] The invention can be applied particularly, but not exclusively, to video encoding and corresponding decoding implemented in current AVC and HEVC video encoders and their extensions (MVC, ...
