Solution Overview

Problem

The increasing demand for high-resolution and high-quality images leads to a significant increase in transmission and storage costs due to the increased amount of information or number of bits required, necessitating high-efficiency image compression technology.

Innovation Solution

The implementation of an image encoding and decoding method that includes acquiring and encoding supplemental enhancement information (SEI) messages for source pictures, along with improved encoding and decoding efficiency through techniques such as versatile video coding (VVC) and versatile supplemental enhancement information (VSEI) messages, which enhance the encoding and decoding processes.

Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The image data is divided into multiple blocks that are processed and transmitted separately. This segmentation allows for selective compression and optimization of different regions, reducing the total number of bits required while maintaining overall image quality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent employs advanced compression parameters and encoding schemes that transform the representation of image data. By changing how image information is encoded and stored, the system achieves high-quality reproduction with reduced bit requirements, directly addressing the contradiction between quality and data volume.

Inventive Principle:
