  • METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR IMAGE PROCESSING USING QUANTIZATION PARAMETER
    Publication number: 20200162736
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are a video decoding method and apparatus and a video encoding method and apparatus. In image encoding, encoding using multiple quantization parameters is performed on a transform coefficient. Two quantized coefficients are generated through encoding that uses two quantization parameters. Based on the two quantized coefficients, a quantized coefficient difference is generated. Information about the quantized coefficient difference is transmitted from an encoding apparatus to a decoding apparatus through binary encoding. The information about the quantized coefficient difference may be selectively transmitted. By means of the information about the quantized coefficient difference, a high-quality video may be provided.

  • METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR IMAGE PROCESSING USING CONTEXT-ADAPTIVE ENTROPY MODEL
    Publication number: 20200107023
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a context-adaptive entropy model for end-to-end optimized image compression. The entropy model exploits two types of contexts. The two types of contexts are a bit-consuming context and a bit-free context, respectively, and these contexts are classified depending on the corresponding context requires the allocation of additional bits. Based on these contexts, the entropy model may more accurately estimate the distribution of each latent representation using a more generalized form of entropy models, thus improving compression performance.
