The present invention provides a method and module for performing the update operation in motion compensated temporal filtering for video coding. The update operation is performed according to coding blocks in the prediction residue frame. Depending on macroblock mode in the prediction step, a coding block can have different sizes. Macroblock modes are used to specify how a macroblock is segmented into blocks. In the prediction step, the reverse direction of the motion vectors is used directly as an update motion vector and therefore no motion vector derivation process is performed. Motion vectors that significantly deviate from their neighboring motion vectors are considered not reliable and excluded from the update step. An adaptive filter is used in interpolating the prediction residue block for the update operation. The adaptive filter is an adaptive combination of a short filter and a long filter.

An encoder, based on a combination of two audio channels, obtains a first combination signal as a mid-signal and a residual signal derivable using a predicted side signal derived from the mid signal. The first combination signal and the prediction residual signal are encoded and written into a data stream together with the prediction information. A decoder generates decoded first and second channel signals using the prediction residual signal, the first combination signal and the prediction information. A real-to-imaginary transform may be applied for estimating the imaginary part of the spectrum of the first combination signal. For calculating the prediction signal used in the derivation of the prediction residual signal, the real-valued first combination signal is multiplied by a real portion of the complex prediction information and the estimated imaginary part of the first combination signal is multiplied by an imaginary portion of the complex prediction information.

A video decoder, a video decoding method, a video encoder and a video encoding method are disclosed. A video decoder for decoding a video bitstream for an image block includes a motion vector resolution reducer and a motion compensator. The motion vector resolution reducer is for receiving decoded high resolution motion vectors included in the video bitstream and for reducing an accuracy of the high resolution motion vectors to correspond to a low resolution. The motion compensator, in signal communication with the motion vector resolution reducer, is for forming a motion compensated high resolution prediction using the reduced accuracy motion vectors. The video encoder for encoding scalable video comprises a motion compensator for forming a motion compensated full resolution prediction and combining combining the motion compensated full resolution prediction from an image block to form a prediction residual. The prediction residual is downsampled to form a low resolution downsampled prediction residual and then coded.

A lossless image encoding / decoding method and apparatus. The lossless color image encoding apparatus includes a motion prediction image generator estimating a motion between a previous image and a current image and outputting a corresponding prediction image, a residue generator generating a temporal residue corresponding to a difference between a prediction image generated by the motion prediction image generator and the corresponding block of the current image with respect to different components of the color image, a prediction residue generator generating prediction residues by defining a linear-transformed value of one residue among the different components of the color image output from the residue generator as a predictor and using differences between each of the residues of the other components and the predictor, and an entropy encoder receiving the residue forming the predictor from the residue generator and the prediction residues from the prediction residue generator and generating a bitstream. Encoding methods, decoding apparatuses, and decoding methods can be implemented similarly.
