Patents by Inventor Benben NIU

Benben NIU has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11936861
    Abstract: Embodiments of this application relate to the video coding and compression field, and disclose an encoding method and apparatus, and a decoding method and apparatus, to resolve a problem that an existing split mode cannot satisfy a relatively complex texture requirement. The decoding method specifically includes: parsing a bitstream to determine a basic split mode for a current to-be-decoded picture block and a target derivation mode for a subpicture block of the current to-be-decoded picture block; splitting the current to-be-decoded picture block into N subpicture blocks in the basic split mode, where N is an integer greater than or equal to 2; deriving one derived picture block from at least two adjacent subpicture blocks in the N subpicture blocks in the target derivation mode; and decoding the derived picture block.

  • Publication number: 20200021850
    Abstract: The present disclosure disclose a video data decoding method. The method includes: receiving a bitstream; parsing the bitstream to obtain residual data of a current to-be-decoded image block, prediction information of the current to-be-decoded image block, and a pixel value transformation mode identifier of the current to-be-decoded block; obtaining predictors of the current to-be-decoded image block; obtaining reconstructed pixel values of pixels of the current to-be-decoded image block; and performing spatial transformation on the reconstructed pixel values of the pixels of the current to-be-decoded image block according to a pixel value transformation mode corresponding to the transformation mode identifier of the current to-be-decoded image block, to obtain transformed pixel values of the pixels of the current to-be-decoded image block. The embodiments of the present disclosure further disclose a video data encoding method, a decoding apparatus, and an encoding apparatus.
