VIDEO DECODING METHOD, VIDEO DECODING APPARATUS, VIDEO ENCODING METHOD, AND VIDEO ENCODING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17984063 titled 'VIDEO DECODING METHOD, VIDEO DECODING APPARATUS, VIDEO ENCODING METHOD, AND VIDEO ENCODING APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method and apparatus for video decoding. Here are the key points:

  • The method involves obtaining information about a first motion vector of a current block from a bitstream.
  • Based on this information, the first motion vector is determined.
  • A candidate list is then created, which includes multiple candidate prediction motion vectors for determining a second motion vector of the current block.
  • The distance between each candidate prediction motion vector and the first motion vector is calculated.
  • One of the candidate prediction motion vectors is selected as the second motion vector based on this distance.
  • The motion vector of the current block is determined using both the first and second motion vectors.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Video compression and decompression algorithms
  • Video streaming services
  • Video editing and post-production software

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient and accurate video decoding
  • Improved motion vector prediction for better video quality
  • Reduced computational complexity in video decoding algorithms

Benefits of this technology:

  • Higher video compression ratios without significant loss in quality
  • Improved video playback and streaming performance
  • Reduced bandwidth requirements for video transmission


Original Abstract Submitted

Provided are a video decoding method and apparatus for obtaining, from a bitstream, information about a first motion vector of a current block, determining, based on the information about the first motion vector, the first motion vector, determining a candidate list including a plurality of candidate prediction motion vectors for determining a second motion vector of the current block, determining, based on a distance between each of the plurality of candidate prediction motion vectors and the first motion vector, one of the plurality of candidate prediction motion vectors as the second motion vector, and determining a motion vector of the current block by using the first motion vector and the second motion vector.
