Image coding method, image decoding method, image coding apparatus, image decoding apparatus, and image coding and decoding apparatus
View Patent ↗An image coding method using arithmetic coding. The method includes: performing arithmetic coding on a first flag that indicates whether or not an absolute value of a target coefficient in a target coefficient block is greater than 1; and performing arithmetic coding on a second flag that indicates whether or not the absolute value is greater than 2. In the arithmetic coding on the first flag and the arithmetic coding on the second flag, it is determined whether or not an immediately-prior coefficient block that has been coded immediately prior to the target coefficient block includes a coefficient having an absolute value greater than a threshold value. Based on a result of the determination, respective contexts to be used in the arithmetic coding on the first and second flags are selected.
1. An image decoding method using arithmetic decoding, the image decoding method comprising:
performing arithmetic decoding on a first flag that indicates whether or not an absolute value of a target coefficient in a target coefficient block is greater than 1; and
performing arithmetic decoding on a second flag that indicates whether or not the absolute value is greater than 2,
wherein, in the performing of the arithmetic decoding on the first flag and the performing of the arithmetic decoding on the second flag, it is determined whether or not an immediately-prior coefficient block that has been decoded immediately prior to the target coefficient block includes a coefficient having an absolute value greater than a threshold value, and a context to be used in the arithmetic decoding on the first flag and a context to be used in the arithmetic decoding on the second flag are selected based on a result of the determination.
2. An image decoding apparatus that performs arithmetic decoding, the image decoding apparatus comprising:
control circuitry; and
storage accessible from the control circuitry,
wherein the control circuitry executes the image decoding method according to claim 1 .
