    摘要: In a method of coding discrete time signals (X1) sampled with a first sampling rate, second time signals (x2) are generated using the first time signals having a bandwidth corresponding to a second sampling rate, with the second sampling rate being lower than the first sampling rate. The second time signals are coded in accordance with a first coding algorithm. The coded second signals (X2c) are decoded again in order to obtain coded/decoded second time signals (X2cd) having a bandwidth corresponding to the second sampling frequency. The first time signals, by frequency domain transformation, become first spectral values (X1). Second spectral values (X2cd) are generated from the coded/decoded second time signals, the second spectral values being a representation of the coded/decoded time signals in the frequency domain. To obtain weighted spectral values, the first spectral values are weighted by means of the second spectral values, with the first and second spectral values having the same frequency and time resolution. The weighted spectral values (Xb) are coded in accordance with a second coding algorithm in consideration of a psychoacoustic model and written into a bit stream. Weighting the first spectral values and the second spectral values comprises the subtraction of the second spectral values from the first spectral values in to obtain differential spectral values.

    摘要: Standard video compression techniques apply motion-compensated prediction combined with transform coding of the prediction error. In the context of prediction with fractional-pel motion vector resolution it was shown, that aliasing components contained in an image signal are limiting the prediction efficiency obtained by motion compensation. In order to consider aliasing, quantization and motion estimation errors, camera noise, etc., we analytically developed a two dimensional (2D) non-separable interpolation filter, which is independently calculated for each frame by minimizing the prediction error energy. For every fractional-pel position to be interpolated, an individual set of 2D filter coefficients is determined. Since transmitting filter coefficients as side information results in an additional bit rate, which is almost constant for different image resolutions and total bit rates, the loss in coding gain increases when total bit rates sink. Therefore, we developed an algorithm, which regards the non-separable two-dimensional filter as a polyphase filter. For each frame, predicting the interpolation filter impulse response through evaluation of the polyphase filter, we only have to encode the prediction error of the filter coefficients.

    摘要: An audio signal decoder has a time warp contour calculator, a time warp contour data rescaler and a warp decoder. The time warp contour calculator is configured to generate time warp contour data repeatedly restarting from a predetermined time warp contour start value, based on time warp contour evolution information describing a temporal evolution of the time warp contour. The time warp contour data rescaler is configured to rescale at least a portion of the time warp contour data such that a discontinuity at a restart is avoided, reduced or eliminated in a rescaled version of the time warp contour. The warp decoder is configured to provide the decoded audio signal representation, based on an encoded audio signal representation and using the rescaled version of the time warp contour.

    摘要: In order to process a subband signal of a plurality of real subband signals which are a representation of a real discrete-time signal generated by an analysis filter bank, a weighter for weighting a subband signal by a weighting factor determined for the subband signal is provided to obtain a weighted subband signal. In addition, a correction term is calculated by a correction term determiner, the correction term determiner being implemented to calculate the correction term using at least one other subband signal and using another weighting factor provided for the other subband signal, the two weighting factors differing. The correction term is then combined with the weighted subband signal to obtain a corrected subband signal, resulting in reduced aliasing, even if subband signals are weighted to a different extent.
