IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD AND APPARATUS, COMPUTER DEVICE, STORAGE MEDIUM AND PROGRAM PRODUCT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18334785 titled 'IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD AND APPARATUS, COMPUTER DEVICE, STORAGE MEDIUM AND PROGRAM PRODUCT

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an image processing method and apparatus that can be used in various applications such as image processing, gaming, and basic gaming skills.

• The method involves encoding a current frame image to obtain an initial encoded image.
• An encoding parameter is obtained, which includes information about whether there is a scene switch in the current frame image.
• Based on the encoding parameter, the current frame image is recoded to obtain a target encoded image.
• The target encoded image has a smaller data volume compared to the initial encoded image.

This innovation aims to reduce the data volume of encoded images while maintaining the necessary information for image processing, gaming, and other applications.

Original Abstract Submitted

An image processing method and apparatus, a computer device, a storage medium and a program product, which can be applied to scenes such as image processing, game, and game basic skill. The method includes: encoding a current frame image to obtain an initial encoded image, and obtaining an encoding parameter, the encoding parameter comprising: a parameter indicating whether a scene switch exists in the current frame image; and recoding the current frame image based on a determination, according to the encoding parameter, that the current frame image needs to be recoded to obtain a target encoded image, wherein a data volume of the target encoded image is less than the data volume of the initial encoded image.
