Patent number: 6529636Abstract: If coding is carried out on the block basis on subband coding of an image, the hierarchical characteristic which a subband image inherently has would be lost. Thus, efficient coding is to be carried out while holding the hierarchical characteristic of the subband image. After the subband image is coded on the block basis, symbol information and coefficient information are decomposed and relocated for every subband before producing coded data.Type: GrantFiled: October 25, 1999Date of Patent: March 4, 2003Assignee: Sharp Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Tomoko Aono, Norio Ito, Hiroyuki Katata, Hiroshi Kusao

Publication number: 20030016746Abstract: When a background interpolation-judging section 107 judges that parts areas of a lower layer and an upper layer move significantly, and a visual effect can be obtained by the background interpolation, a controller 103 controls a switch 104 based on the area information of the parts area of the lower layer to perform the background interpolation. A weighted average section 106 takes an average by weighting to the upper layer and the lower layer by using the interpolated background to generate an interpolated image. By using this interpolated image, the prediction-encoding/decoding of the upper layer is performed. On the contrary, when the background interpolation-judging section 107 judges that parts areas do not move so significantly, and a visual effect cannot be obtained by the background interpolation, a background is synthesized by using the output of the interpolated image-forming section 105 to generate an interpolated image.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 17, 1999Publication date: January 23, 2003Inventors: NORIO ITO, HIROYUKI KATATA, TOMOKO AONO, HIROSHI KUSAO

Publication number: 20030007557Abstract: A motion picture coding and decoding apparatus synthesizes a lower layer frame at a certain time by using first component area information of a lower layer preceding in the time and second component area information of a lower layer succeeding in the time. For an area where the first and second component areas overlapped, or for an area which is neither the first nor the second component area on the lower layer frame, lower layer frames preceding and succeeding in time are subjected to weighted average for synthetisization. For the area corresponding to the first component area only, the lower layer frame succeeding in time is used, and for the area corresponding to the second component area only on the synthesized lower layer frame, the lower layer frame preceding in time is used, for synthesizing the lower layer.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 3, 2002Publication date: January 9, 2003Applicant: Sharp Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Hiroyuki Katata, Norio Ito, Tomoko Aono, Hiroshi Kusao, Shuichi Watanabe
