Samsung patents video decoding method using bit-shift values

Patent drawing
Patent drawing from the official filing.

This filing describes a method for decoding video data by extracting specific coefficients from a compressed bitstream. It uses a series of mathematical steps, including inverse quantization and transformation, to reconstruct the original image from the compressed data.

Why it mattersThis is a technical improvement to video compression standards that helps devices process video files more efficiently, though it is unlikely to be noticeable to everyday users.

In the filing’s own words

An image decoding method and apparatus according to an embodiment may extract, from a bitstream, a quantization coefficient generated through core transformation, secondary transformation, and quantization; generate an inverse-quantization coefficient by performing inverse quantization on the quantization coefficient; generate a secondary inverse-transformation coefficient by performing secondary inverse-transformation on a low frequency component of the inverse-quantization coefficient, the secondary inverse-transformation corresponding to the secondary transformation; and perform core inverse-transformation on the secondary inverse-transformation coefficient, the core inverse-transformation corresponding to the core transformation.

What exactly they claim (claim 1)

1. A decoding method comprising: obtaining first probability information for performing arithmetic decoding for a first bin regarding a first syntax element, based on a first probability model and a second probability model; obtaining the first bin regarding the first syntax element by performing arithmetic decoding based on the obtained first probability information; obtaining a value of the first syntax element corresponding to a first bin string including the first bin; obtaining second probability information for performing arithmetic decoding for a second bin regarding a second syntax element, based on a third probability model and a fourth probability model; obtaining the second bin regarding the second syntax element by performing arithmetic decoding based on the obtained second probability information; obtaining a value of the second syntax element corresponding to a second bin string including the second bin; obtaining a third bin regarding a third syntax element by performing arithmetic decoding in a bypass mode without probability information; and obtaining a value of the third syntax element corresponding to a third bin string including the third bin, wherein the first probability model is determined based on a first bit-shift value, the second probability model is determined based on a second bit-shift value, and the second bit-shift value is determined based on the first bit-shift value, the third probability model is determined based on a third bit-shift value, the fourth probability model is determined based on a fourth bit-shift value, and the fourth bit-shift value is determined based on the third bit-shift value, and at least one of the first bit-shift value, the second bit-shift value, the third bit-shift value and the fourth bit-shift value is determined based on a slice type of a current slice.
