Abstract
Description
technical field The present invention relates to a method for image encoding of a sequence of original images and an image decoding method for decoding images encoded by the above method. Furthermore, the invention relates to an encoding device for encoding a sequence of original images, as well as a decoding device for decoding images encoded using the method described above. Background technique According to [1], video coding methods for efficiently coding a sequence of images exploit specific signal properties. The positional and temporal dependence of the individual images or of the pixels of the images is used here. The better an image or video coding method is able to exploit this dependence between individual images or image points, the greater the compression ratio generally achievable. In the current video coding technology, there are basically two methods: hybrid coding methods, such as ITU-T H.263 or ITU-T H.264 standards [2, 3], and so-called three-dimensional...
