METHODS PROVIDING ENCODING/DECODING OF DEPENDENT/INDEPENDENT PARTITIONS AND RELATED DEVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18539984 titled 'METHODS PROVIDING ENCODING/DECODING OF DEPENDENT/INDEPENDENT PARTITIONS AND RELATED DEVICES

Simplified Explanation

The patent application discusses methods to decode a picture from a bitstream by determining a partitioning structure of the picture, decoding dependency syntax elements, and decoding the picture based on the dependencies between partitions.

  • Partitioning structure of the picture is determined
  • Dependency syntax elements are decoded from the bitstream
  • Dependency between first and second partitions is determined
  • Picture is decoded based on the dependency between partitions

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in video compression, image processing, and multimedia streaming.

Problems Solved

This technology solves the problem of efficiently decoding pictures from a bitstream by considering dependencies between partitions.

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include improved picture decoding efficiency, reduced data transmission requirements, and enhanced multimedia streaming performance.

Potential Commercial Applications

A potential commercial application of this technology could be in the development of video encoding and decoding software for various industries.

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be the use of dependency syntax elements in video compression standards like H.264 or H.265.

Original Abstract Submitted

Methods to decode a picture from a bitstream are discussed. A partitioning structure of the picture is determined, wherein the partitioning structure defines at least first and second partitions of the picture. At least one dependency syntax element is decoded from the bitstream, and whether the second partition is dependent on or independent of the first partition is determined based on the at least one dependency syntax element. The picture is decoded from the bitstream based on determining whether the second partition of the picture is dependent on or independent of the first partition of the picture. Related methods of encoding and related devices are also discussed.
