Problems solved by technology

[0011] However, when decoding priority-encoded data in which an important area of ​​a moving image is encoded with priority using a layered encoding scheme, there is a problem if post-filter on / off control is performed based on a quantization parameter, that is, unlike the The image quality of the decoded image of the important area is significantly lower than that of the surrounding area, and the subjective image quality is reduced
[0012] That is, when encoding is performed based on priority from the important area by internally dividing a moving image into an area important to the user and other peripheral areas and setting DCT coefficients of adaptive displacement, the difference between the important area and the peripheral area There will be a deviation in the quantization parameter setting between, the large deviation in the image quality appears in the moving image, and for the surrounding area that is not coded according to the priority, the image quality will drop greatly. Coefficients and quantization parameters are set to apply post-filter filtering processing, although the noise of the entire image can be reduced, but the resolution of the image in the priority coding area is lost

Abstract

A video decoding apparatus that adaptively controls post-filter filter parameters according to a characteristic quantity of priority-coded data priority-coded for individual areas classified by importance within a moving image, and improves the subjective image quality of an overall screen. In a video decoding apparatus 200, a filter parameter calculation section 213 calculates filter parameters that control the noise elimination intensity of a post-filter processing section 215 based on shift values of individual small areas set in a stepwise shift map in which the shift value decreases stepwise from an important area to the peripheral area within a screen in the video coding apparatus, and a post-filter processing section 215 performs post-filter processing of a reconstructed image by applying the calculated filter parameters.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a moving picture decoding device and a moving picture decoding method whereby data encoded by priority is decoded on a region basis according to importance. Background technique [0002] The video data transmitted in the traditional video data transmission system is usually compressed in a certain frequency band or less by means of the H.261 scheme, that is, the MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group) scheme or similar schemes, so that it can be Once the video data is encoded, its video quality will not change even if the transmission frequency band is changed. [0003] However, with the diversification of networks in recent years, fluctuations in frequency bands of transmission paths have increased, and thus video data that allows video transmission whose quality matches a plurality of frequency bands is required. In response to this need, a hierarchical coding scheme having a hierarchical structure and capable of handlin...
