Patent number: 11849110Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for encoding and decoding an image by skip encoding. The image-encoding method by skip encoding, which performs intra-prediction, comprises: performing a filtering operation on the signal which is reconstructed prior to an encoding object signal in an encoding object image; using the filtered reconstructed signal to generate a prediction signal for the encoding object signal; setting the generated prediction signal as a reconstruction signal for the encoding object signal; and not encoding the residual signal which can be generated on the basis of the difference between the encoding object signal and the prediction signal, thereby performing skip encoding on the encoding object signal.Type: GrantFiled: April 1, 2022Date of Patent: December 19, 2023Assignees: Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute, Kwangwoon University Industry-Academic Collaboration Foundation, University-Industry Cooperation Group of Kyung Hee UniversityInventors: Sung Chang Lim, Ha Hyun Lee, Se Yoon Jeong, Hui Yong Kim, Suk Hee Cho, Jong Ho Kim, Jin Ho Lee, Jin Soo Choi, Jin Woong Kim, Chie Teuk Ahn, Dong Gyu Sim, Seoung Jun Oh, Gwang Hoon Park, Sea Nae Park, Chan Woong Jeon

Patent number: 11848864Abstract: The construction method of NALU (Network Abstraction Layer Unit) for IPv6 label switching and its using algorithms of video encoding, QoS control, and decoding are provided. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the NALU format is composed of the NALH (Network Abstraction Layer Header) including the label and the NAL (Network Ab¬straction Layer) payload. Here, the label is determined based on layer information which is combination of a spatial scalable level, a temporal scalable level, and a quality scalable level of the encoded data. The decoder uses the label to decide which one of multiple decoding modules is used to decode the current NAL payload. Moreover, the label can be included in the packet header so that the MANE (Media Aware Network Element) can use the label to decide whether to forward the packet or drop it. For example, the label in the packet header can be used for QoS control of video service by using the flow label field in IPv6 packet header.Type: GrantFiled: February 18, 2021Date of Patent: December 19, 2023Assignee: University-Industry Cooperation Group of Kyung Hee UniversityInventors: Doug Young Suh, Kyu Heon Kim, Gwang Hoon Park
