IMAGE ENCODING/DECODING METHOD AND APPARATUS BASED ON PICTURE SPLIT INFORMATION AND SUBPICTURE INFORMATION, AND RECORDING MEDIUM STORING BITSTREAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17916227 titled 'IMAGE ENCODING/DECODING METHOD AND APPARATUS BASED ON PICTURE SPLIT INFORMATION AND SUBPICTURE INFORMATION, AND RECORDING MEDIUM STORING BITSTREAM

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an image encoding/decoding method and apparatus for partitioning and decoding pictures in a bitstream.

  • Obtains information on whether a current picture can be partitioned from a bitstream.
  • Obtains information on the number of subpictures included in the current picture.
  • Derives the subpictures based on the obtained information.
  • Decodes the subpictures.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in various fields where image encoding and decoding are required, such as:

  • Video streaming services
  • Video conferencing systems
  • Digital image processing
  • Multimedia applications

Problems Solved

The image encoding/decoding method and apparatus address the following problems:

  • Efficient partitioning of pictures in a bitstream
  • Accurate decoding of subpictures
  • Optimized utilization of bandwidth and storage

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include:

  • Improved image encoding and decoding efficiency
  • Enhanced video quality and clarity
  • Reduced bandwidth and storage requirements
  • Faster and more accurate decoding process


Original Abstract Submitted

Provided is an image encoding/decoding method and apparatus. The image decoding method may include obtaining first information on whether a current picture might be partitioned, from a bitstream, obtaining, from the bitstream, second information on the number of one or more subpictures included in the current picture based on the first information, deriving one or more subpictures, based on the second information and decoding the one or more subpictures.
