- Image coding standard H.264 An image encoding method such as H.265 / HEVC (see Non-Patent Document 1) has a function of temporal scalability. A time identifier of TemporalId is inserted into a bitstream having time scalability (see P.211 to P.212 of Non-Patent Document 2). As a result, the image decoding apparatus can output a decoded image at a plurality of time resolutions.
- the image encoding device when a bit stream obtained by encoding a moving image of 60 fps (frames per second) lacks the transmission rate, the image encoding device (transmitting device) drops the frame rate from the bit stream to 30 fps or 15 fps. By cutting out the sub bit stream and transmitting the obtained sub bit stream, it is possible to prevent frame dropping and image quality deterioration in the image decoding apparatus (receiving apparatus).
- FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating an example of a 60 fps bit stream to which TemporalId is assigned.
- the vertical axis indicates TemporalId, and the horizontal axis indicates the output order of pictures (POC: Picture Order Count).
- POC Picture Order Count
- the bit stream in this example is encoded in three layers having different TemporalIds. This hierarchy is called a sublayer or a time layer.
- This hierarchy is called a sublayer or a time layer.
- the frame rate can be converted without re-encoding, the load on the image encoding device (transmission device) can be reduced.
- the image encoding device may perform encoding so that the bit stream satisfies conformance.
- a sub bit stream is generated by the above-described clipping, and the sub bit stream is transmitted to the image decoding apparatus. Therefore, in such a bitstream, not only the original bitstream including the encoding information of all sublayers but also each subbitstream generated from the bitstream needs to satisfy the conformance. Thus, it is difficult to encode a single bitstream so that all of the original bitstream and multiple sub-bitstreams meet conformance, and to generate such a bitstream.

Thereby, the image coding apparatus can perform bit rate control without considering the overflow of the sub bitstream. Therefore, the processing amount of the image encoding device can be reduced.

There are also cases where batch execution is performed using multiplication.

- the inverse quantization unit 206 inversely quantizes the quantization coefficient 254 output from the quantization unit 205, and outputs the obtained frequency coefficient 255 to the inverse conversion unit 207.
- the inverse conversion unit 207 converts the frequency coefficient 255 into a residual signal 256 by performing inverse frequency conversion on the frequency coefficient 255, and outputs the obtained residual signal 256 to the adder 208.

However, inverse quantization and inverse transformation differ from quantization and transformation only in the value of the coefficient, and matrix multiplication is performed.

Abstract
Description
画像符号化規格H.265/HEVC(非特許文献1参照)などの画像符号化方式には、時間スケーラビリティという機能がある。時間スケーラビリティ(非特許文献2のP.211~P.212参照)を有するビットストリームには、TemporalIdという時間識別子が挿入される。これにより、画像復号装置は、複数の時間解像度で復号画像を出力することが可能となる。例えば、60fps(frames per second)の動画像を符号化したビットストリームでは伝送レートが不足する場合に、画像符号化装置(送信装置)は、当該ビットストリームから、30fps又は15fpsにフレームレートを落としたサブビットストリームを切り出し、得られたサブビットストリームを伝送することで、画像復号装置(受信装置)でのコマ落ち及び画質の低下を防止できる。
本実施の形態に係る画像符号化装置は、全てのサブレイヤの符号化情報を含む元のビットストリームのビットレートタイプによらず、サブビットストリームのビットレートタイプを可変ビットレートに設定する。これにより、画像符号化装置は、サブビットストリームのオーバーフローを考慮することなく、ビットレート制御を行える。よって、画像符号化装置の処理量を低減できる。
上記各実施の形態で示した動画像符号化方法(画像符号化方法)または動画像復号化方法(画像復号方法)の構成を実現するためのプログラムを記憶メディアに記録することにより、上記各実施の形態で示した処理を独立したコンピュータシステムにおいて簡単に実施することが可能となる。記憶メディアは、磁気ディスク、光ディスク、光磁気ディスク、ICカード、半導体メモリ等、プログラムを記録できるものであればよい。
上記各実施の形態で示した動画像符号化方法または装置と、MPEG-2、MPEG4-AVC、VC-1など異なる規格に準拠した動画像符号化方法または装置とを、必要に応じて適宜切替えることにより、映像データを生成することも可能である。
上記各実施の形態で示した動画像符号化方法および装置、動画像復号化方法および装置は、典型的には集積回路であるLSIで実現される。一例として、図24に1チップ化されたLSIex500の構成を示す。LSIex500は、以下に説明する要素ex501、ex502、ex503、ex504、ex505、ex506、ex507、ex508、ex509を備え、各要素はバスex510を介して接続している。電源回路部ex505は電源がオン状態の場合に各部に対して電力を供給することで動作可能な状態に起動する。
上記各実施の形態で示した動画像符号化方法または装置によって生成された映像データを復号する場合、従来のMPEG-2、MPEG4-AVC、VC-1などの規格に準拠する映像データを復号する場合に比べ、処理量が増加することが考えられる。そのため、LSIex500において、従来の規格に準拠する映像データを復号する際のCPUex502の駆動周波数よりも高い駆動周波数に設定する必要がある。しかし、駆動周波数を高くすると、消費電力が高くなるという課題が生じる。
テレビや、携帯電話など、上述した機器・システムには、異なる規格に準拠する複数の映像データが入力される場合がある。このように、異なる規格に準拠する複数の映像データが入力された場合にも復号できるようにするために、LSIex500の信号処理部ex507が複数の規格に対応している必要がある。しかし、それぞれの規格に対応する信号処理部ex507を個別に用いると、LSIex500の回路規模が大きくなり、また、コストが増加するという課題が生じる。
