Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If conventional intra prediction methods are used, then encoding simplicity is maintained, but compression efficiency is insufficient for high-resolution videos

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecompression efficiencyVSAvoidencoding complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent changes the parameters of intra prediction by introducing interpolation filtering with adjustable filtering coefficients and window sizes. Instead of using fixed prediction modes, the system varies filtering parameters (coefficient values, window dimensions) to adapt to different block characteristics, thereby improving compression efficiency while managing complexity through parameter optimization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces dynamic elements into intra prediction by making the filtering process adaptive. The filtering coefficients and window sizes are dynamically selected based on block characteristics, allowing the prediction method to adjust to different content types and resolutions, thus improving compression efficiency for high-resolution videos without requiring completely new encoding structures.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Loss of energy

If high-resolution video compression is achieved through advanced methods, then bandwidth requirements are reduced, but computational complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebandwidth consumptionVSAvoidcomputational complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of energyVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent enables the encoding system to self-optimize by automatically selecting filtering parameters and modes based on the input video characteristics. The system performs self-adjustment of filtering coefficients and window sizes without requiring external intervention or complex manual configuration, thereby reducing bandwidth consumption for high-resolution videos while keeping computational complexity manageable through automated parameter selection.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Measurement precision

If interpolation filtering with filtering coefficients is applied, then prediction accuracy is improved, but processing time increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprediction accuracyVSAvoidprocessing time
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies partial interpolation filtering selectively rather than uniformly across all blocks. By applying filtering only where needed (based on block characteristics) and using adjustable window sizes, the system achieves improved prediction accuracy for critical areas while minimizing processing time for less critical areas, thus balancing accuracy and processing time requirements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action
