Abstract:
The decoding method is a decoding method for decoding a bitstream, in which a difference between a reference index and a prediction value of a motion vector is used for each block obtained by dividing each frame of a moving picture in which a plurality of frames are consecutive, in which a plurality of groups having a predetermined number of blocks are defined in each frame and a limitation is applied for each group to a range of reference index and differences of blocks other than the first block in the group, and the decoding method includes a step for determining whether the block to be decoded is the first block of the group, a step for decoding using the reference index and difference if the block is not the first block, and a step for decoding using the limited reference index and differences if the block is not the first block.
Abstract:
Provided is a data processing device that reduces the amount of memory access in a case where data and an error control code are to be stored in a memory. The processing device includes a data compression section, a code generation section, a binding section, and a transfer section. The data compression section generates second data by performing a predetermined compression process on first data that is to be stored in a memory and of a predetermined data length. The code generation section generates an error control code for the first data or the second data. The binding section generates third data by binding the second data generated by the data compression section to the error control code generated by the code generation section. The transfer section transfers the third data generated by the binding section to the memory in units of the predetermined data length.

Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a hash generator, a reference hash list, a frame mode determination unit, and an intra prediction unit. The hash generator generates a hash value of a target frame to be encoded. The reference hash list is to record the hash value generated by the hash generator. The frame mode determination unit compares the hash value generated by the hash generator and the hash value in the reference hash list. The intra prediction unit performs intra prediction for the target frame to be encoded. When the hash value of the target frame to be encoded coincides with any of the hash values in the reference hash list, the intra prediction unit skips an encoding process, and outputs encoded information corresponding to any of the hash values in the reference hash list.
Abstract:
Making effective use of an image encoder and an image decoder for processing a color image of a general-purpose standard bit depth, an image transmission device capable of transmitting/receiving a monochrome image of a higher bit depth is configured. An image transmission device includes an image encoder to encode a high bit-depth monochrome image and output encoded data and an image decoder to generate, by decoding the encoded data received via a transmission path, a high bit-depth monochrome image. The image encoder decomposes the input high bit-depth image data into plural bit planes corresponding to color image data of a standard bit depth and encodes the standard bit-depth color image data. The image decoder decodes the color image data of the standard bit depth and synthesizes, from the decoded standard bit-depth color image data, a high bit-depth monochrome image.
Abstract:
Included are an encoding section, a decoding section, and an image recognition section. The encoding section performs an encoding process for a video signal to be input based on a calculated encoding mode, and transmits an encoded stream. The decoding section performs a decoding process for the received encoded stream, and outputs a decoded image. The image recognition section performs an image recognition process for the decoded image. The encoding section adjusts the encoding mode based on recognition accuracy information representing the certainty of a recognition result in the image recognition section.

Abstract:
In an image processing device, a motion image decoding processing unit extracts a feature amount of a target image to be decoded from an input stream, and changes a read size of a cache fill from an external memory to a cache memory, based on the feature amount. The feature amount represents an intra macro block ratio in, for example, one picture (frames or fields), or a motion vector variation. When the intra macro block ratio is high, the read size of the cache fill is decreased.
