    • Some embodiments of the invention provide a method of performing a Discrete Cosine Transform (“DCT”) encoding or decoding coefficients of a data array by (1) multiplying the coefficients by a scalar value before the encoding or decoding, and then (2) dividing the encoded or decoded coefficients by the scalar value. When used in conjunction with fixed-point arithmetic, this method increases the precision of the encoded and decoded results. In addition, some embodiments provide a method of performing a two-dimensional (2D) Inverse Discrete Cosine Transform (“iDCT”). This method splits a pre-multiplication operation of the iDCT into two or more separate stages. When used in conjunction with fixed-point arithmetic, this splitting increases the precision of the decoded results of the iDCT.

    • The rate controller in a digital video encoding system is responsible for allocating a bit budget for video frames to be encoded. The rate controller considers many different factors when determining the frame bit budget. One of the factors considered is the complexity of the frames being compressed. Occasionally there will be a very complex frame that is not representative of the overall video frame sequence. Such a rare complex frame may cause a disproportionate affect on the bit budget allocation. The system of the present invention limits the amount that a very complex frame can change the bit budget allocation. The rate controller of the present invention also includes a relaxation factor. The relaxation factor allows a user to determine if the rate controller should strictly allocate its bit budget or relax its standards such that the rate controller may not be so conservative when allocating bits to frames.
    • 数字视频编码系统中的速率控制器负责为要编码的视频帧分配比特预算。 速率控制器在确定帧位预算时会考虑许多不同的因素。 考虑的因素之一是被压缩的帧的复杂性。 偶尔会有一个非常复杂的帧,不能代表整个视频帧序列。 这种罕见的复杂框架可能会对比特预算分配造成不成比例的影响。 本发明的系统限制了非常复杂的帧可以改变比特预算分配的量。 本发明的速率控制器还包括松弛因子。 松弛因子允许用户确定速率控制器是否应严格分配其位预算或放宽其标准,使得速率控制器在将位分配给帧时可能不那么保守。

    • Some embodiments of the invention encode a sequence of video images based on “visual masking” attributes of the video images and/or portions of the video images. Visual masking of an image or a portion of the image is an indication of how much coding artifacts can be tolerated in the image or image portion. To express the visual masking attribute of an image or an image portion, some embodiments compute a visual masking strength that quantifies the brightness energy of the image or the image portion. In some embodiments, the brightness energy is measured as a function of the average luma or pixel energy of the image or image portion.
    • 本发明的一些实施例基于视频图像和/或视频图像的部分的“视觉掩蔽”属性来编码视频图像序列。 图像或图像的一部分的视觉遮蔽是图像或图像部分中可以容许多少编码伪像的指示。 为了表达图像或图像部分的视觉掩蔽属性,一些实施例计算量化图像或图像部分的亮度能量的视觉掩蔽强度。 在一些实施例中,根据图像或图像部分的平均亮度或像素能量来测量亮度能量。

    • Some embodiments of the invention provide a method for encoding a video signal that is formed by a series of successive images. Each image includes several sections, and each section has a set of image values. To encode a particular section of a particular image, the method initially partitions the particular section into several sub-sections. For each of at least two particular sub-sections, the method then computes a statistical parameter regarding the image values of the particular sub-section. The method compares the computed statistical parameters, and based on the comparison, selects an encoding technique from a set of encoding techniques to encode the particular section. In some embodiments, the set of encoding schemes includes a first scheme that encodes the selected section without reference to any other section of any other image, and a second scheme that encodes the selected section by reference to at least one other section.
    • 本发明的一些实施例提供了一种用于编码由一系列连续图像形成的视频信号的方法。 每个图像包括几个部分,每个部分都有一组图像值。 为了对特定图像的特定部分进行编码,该方法最初将特定部分分成几个子部分。 对于至少两个特定子部分中的每一个,该方法然后计算关于特定子部分的图像值的统计参数。 该方法比较所计算的统计参数,并且基于该比较,从一组编码技术中选择编码技术以对特定部分进行编码。 在一些实施例中,所述编码方案组包括编码所选择的部分而不参考任何其它图像的任何其它部分的第一方案,以及通过参考至少一个其他部分对所选部分进行编码的第二方案。

    • Method For Implementing A Quantizer In A Multimedia Compression And Encoding System is disclosed. In the Quantizer system of the present invention, several new quantization ideas are disclosed. In one embodiment, adjacent macroblocks are grouped together into macroblock groups. The macroblock groups are then assigned a common quantizer value. The common quantizer value may be selected based upon how the macroblocks are encoded, the type of macroblocks within the macroblock group (intra-blocks or inter-blocks), the history of the motion vectors associated with the macroblocks in the macroblock group, the residuals of the macroblocks in the macroblock group, and the energy of the macroblocks in the macroblock group. The quantizer value may be adjusted in a manner that is dependent on the current quantizer value. Specifically, if the quantizer value is at the low end of the quantizer scale, then only small adjustments are made. If the quantizer value is at the high end then larger adjustments may be made to the quantizer. Finally, in one embodiment, the quantizer is implemented along with an inverse quantizer for efficient operation.

    • A method for adaptively performing motion estimation. In some embodiments, the method initially performs a first motion estimation operation. It then determines whether the estimated error in the result of the first motion estimation is greater than a particular threshold. If not, the method uses the results of the first motion estimation operation. Otherwise, the method selects another motion estimation operation. The method continues in this manner until it performs a motion estimation operation that results in an acceptable estimated error, or until it tries all the motion estimation operations at its disposal. When the method cannot identify a motion estimation operation that produces results with an acceptable estimated error, the method selects the result of the motion estimation operation that produced the best results.
    • 一种自适应执行运动估计的方法。 在一些实施例中,该方法最初执行第一运动估计操作。 然后,确定第一运动估计的结果中的估计误差是否大于特定阈值。 如果不是,则该方法使用第一运动估计操作的结果。 否则,该方法选择另一运动估计操作。 该方法以这种方式继续,直到其执行导致可接受的估计误差的运动估计操作,或者直到它尝试其所有的所有运动估计操作。 当该方法无法识别产生具有可接受的估计误差的结果的运动估计运算时,该方法选择产生最佳结果的运动估计运算的结果。
