Patent number: 8374451Abstract: The present invention enables a circuit configuration to be simplified. An image encoding device (100) receives an input image (91) that is line-scanned in units of MBs as scan blocks, each constituted by a plurality of 4×4 blocks, while being scanned in units of 4×4 blocks as encoding blocks, each constituted by a plurality of pixels. The image encoding device (100) selects a VLC (variable length) table corresponding to a table selection index nC, which is an average value of the numbers nB and nA of nonzero coefficients as encoding values on which variable-length encoding is performed in upper-adjoining and left-adjoining 4×4 blocks of a 4×4 block as an encoding target in quantization coefficients as encoding target data based on the input image (91).Type: GrantFiled: June 23, 2009Date of Patent: February 12, 2013Assignee: Sony CorporationInventors: Shojiro Shibata, Takaaki Fuchie, Kashu Takahashi, Yuya Horiuchi

Patent number: 8369403Abstract: The present invention can suppress the decline in video quality during encoding. The present invention generates, for each of the nine intra image prediction modes preset according to the AVC standard, a difference image data item containing a difference value from pixels surrounding a process-target pixel. Then, an encoding device (10) ranks the intra image prediction modes depending on the sum of absolute difference (SAD), which is the sum of differences that is based on the sum of absolute values of each process-target pixel of the difference image data item and a preference order of offset[n] preset for the intra image prediction mode.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2008Date of Patent: February 5, 2013Assignee: Sony CorporationInventors: Yuya Horiuchi, Shojiro Shibata, Takaaki Fuchie

Patent number: 8270744Abstract: The present invention enables a reduction in circuit scale. In an image coding apparatus (100), as for DCT coefficients as simple coded data obtained by coding an input image (91) by simple processing, the input image (91) is coded by at least quantizing the input image (91) as an input image on the basis of selected quantization parameters (QPl) discretely selected from quantization parameters (QP) as quantization factors, thereby computing generated code sizes of the input image (91) upon coding. The image coding apparatus (100) corrects an error in the generated code sizes of the input image upon coding which occurs in accordance with the simple processing, thereby computing low-precision generated code sizes.Type: GrantFiled: June 23, 2009Date of Patent: September 18, 2012Assignee: Sony CorporationInventors: Takaaki Fuchie, Kyohei Koyabu, Shojiro Shibata, Kashu Takahashi, Yuya Horiuchi
