Motion picture encoding apparatus and method thereof
View Patent ↗Provided is a video encoding apparatus, including a signal separator to separate a differential image block into a first domain and a second domain, based on a boundary line included in the differential image block, the differential image block indicating a difference between an original image and a prediction image with respect to the original image, a transform encoder to perform a transform encoding with respect to the first domain using a discrete cosine transform (DCT), a quantization unit to quantize an output of the transform encoding unit in a frequency domain, a space domain quantization unit to quantize the second domain in a space domain, and an entropy encoder to perform an entropy encoding using outputs of the quantization unit and the space domain quantization unit.
1. A video decoding method comprising:
determining, based on first information, whether an encoded image includes at least one block which is not inverse-transformed, the first information indicating whether the encoded image includes at least one block which is not inverse-transformed;
determining whether the current block is a first block with a size that is not a minimum size (4×4) or a second block with a size that is a minimum size (4×4);
when the encoded image includes at least one block which is not inverse-transformed and the current block is the second block, obtaining, from a bitstream, second information indicating whether the current block is inverse-transformed or not, wherein the second information is not encoded for the first block and is encoded for the second block;
dequantizing the current block, wherein the current block is dequantized in a frequency domain in response to the second information indicating the current block is inverse-transformed, and the current block is dequantized in a space domain in response to the second information indicating the current block is not inverse-transformed;
generating a residual image relating to the current block by performing selectively the inverse-transform on the dequantized current block based on the second information,
wherein the residual image is generated based on dequantization in the frequency domain and the inverse-transform in response to the second information indicating the current block is inverse-transformed, and the residual image is generated based on the dequantization in the space domain in response to the second information indicating the current block is not inverse-transformed; and
constructing a decoded image using the residual image.
2. The video decoding method of claim 1 , wherein the encoded image containing the current block is partitioned into blocks, part of the blocks are not inverse-transformed, and the remaining blocks are inverse-transformed.
3. The video decoding method of claim 1 , wherein the second information indicating whether the current block is inverse-transformed or not.
