Description
This application claims priority from U.S. patent office filed on 31/12/2018 under application number 62/787, 237, entitled "Intra Mode Coding for the Combined Inter and Intra Prediction," the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of video coding and compression technologies, and in particular, to a method and an apparatus for intra-frame and inter-frame joint prediction in video coding.
Background
Various video encoding techniques may be used to compress video data when processing the video data. Video encoding is performed according to one or more video encoding standards. For example, Video Coding standards include multifunctional Video Coding (VVC), joint exploration test model (JEM), High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC), Advanced Video Coding (AVC), Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) Coding, and the like. Video coding typically utilizes prediction methods such as inter prediction, intra prediction, etc., where there is redundancy in the video image or video sequence. An important goal of video coding techniques is to compress video data into a form that uses a lower bit rate while avoiding or minimizing degradation of video quality.
The image partition structure divides the input video into blocks called Coding Tree Units (CTUs). A CTU is divided into a plurality of Coding Units (CUs) using a quad-tree having a nested multi-type tree structure, the coding units having leaf coding units defining regions sharing the same prediction mode. The jvt conference defines the encoding method of VVC. In VVC, when a CU is coded in merge mode and the CU contains at least 64 luma samples, i.e., the CU width x height is equal to or greater than 64, an additional flag is sent to indicate whether Combined Inter and Intra Prediction (CIIP) is applied to the current CU. When CIIP is applied to the current CU, in order to obtain CIIP prediction of the current CU, the Coding end uses a CABAC (Context-adaptive Binary Arithmetic Coding) Coding method to code the related mark information and sends the coded information to the decoding end. The decoding end firstly deduces an intra-frame prediction mode from the information of two bits sent by the encoding end; then, conventional inter and intra decoding processes are used to derive inter and intra prediction signals; finally, the inter and intra prediction signals are weighted averaged to obtain the CIIP prediction. The current CIIP prediction method has the problems of low coding efficiency and complex process.

Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, and it is apparent that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
For convenience of understanding, terms referred to in the embodiments of the present invention are explained below:
1) CABAC Coding (Context-adaptive Binary Arithmetic Coding): is a form of entropy coding used in coding standards such as high-efficiency video coding, VVC, etc.; CABAC, which has several innovations and modifications to adapt to the requirements of video coding standards based on arithmetic coding, has multiple probability modes for different contexts, first converts all non-binary symbols into binaries, then selects a probability model to be used for each binary (also called bit), optimizes probability estimates, and finally compresses the data with arithmetic coding;
2) and (3) binarization encoding: the method refers to a process of encoding non-binary characters into binary strings according to a certain rule during arithmetic coding in video coding, and common binary coding algorithms include unitary binarization, truncated unitary binarization, fixed-length binarization, truncated rice binarization, K-order exponential Golomb binarization and the like.
Example 1
The embodiment of the present invention provides a method for intra-frame and inter-frame joint prediction in video coding, which is applied to a video coding end, as shown in fig. 1, and includes:
step S101, acquiring a current video image frame, and determining a coding block CU in the video image frame;
acquiring a current video image frame, and determining a coding block CU in the video image frame. The image division structure divides an input current video image frame into blocks called coding tree units CTUs, and divides one coding tree unit CTU into coding blocks CU using a quad tree having a nested multi-type tree structure, the coding blocks CU having leaf coding units defining regions sharing the same prediction mode, which may be intra-frame or inter-frame, etc. Each CU includes one or more prediction units PU and a transform unit tree.
Step S102, in the process of decoding the CU in the merging mode, when the CIIP (joint prediction in intra-frame and inter-frame) is determined to be adopted, the inter-frame prediction signal of the CU is obtained by using the determined inter-frame prediction mode, and the intra-frame prediction signal of the CU is obtained by using the determined intra-frame prediction mode;
the coding end has six available interframe prediction modes, one of which is selected for prediction when interframe signal prediction is carried out, and has four available intraframe prediction modes, one of which is selected for prediction when intraframe signal prediction is carried out.
In the process of decoding a CU by adopting a merging mode, when intra-frame and inter-frame joint prediction CIIP is determined, the inter-frame prediction signal of the CU is determined according to the inter-frame prediction mode used by a coding end, and the intra-frame prediction signal of the CU is determined according to the intra-frame prediction mode used by the coding end. In particular implementation, in inter prediction, an inter prediction value may be formed by motion estimation and motion compensation based on pixels from a previous reconstructed frame; in intra prediction, an intra prediction value may be formed based on reconstructed pixels in a current frame.
With CIIP prediction mode, the inter prediction signal is derived using the same inter prediction process as applied to the conventional merge mode, and the intra prediction signal is derived using CIIP intra prediction mode after the conventional intra prediction process.
The above method for deriving the inter prediction signal and the intra prediction signal in the CIIP prediction mode can adopt the prior art, and is not described in detail here.
Step S103, weighting the inter-frame prediction signal and the intra-frame prediction signal to obtain a CIIP prediction signal, indicating the determined inter-frame prediction mode to a decoding end through merging indexes, and indicating the code word corresponding to the determined intra-frame prediction mode to the decoding end according to the preset mapping relation between different intra-frame prediction modes and the code word.
And performing weighted average on the inter-frame prediction signal and the intra-frame prediction signal to obtain a CIIP prediction signal, wherein the weighted value depends on the used intra-frame prediction mode or the size of the CU, and the weighted value comprises the following two conditions:
1) and if the determined intra-frame prediction mode is a DC prediction mode or a plane prediction mode, or the width or the height of the current CU is less than N, determining that the inter-frame prediction signal and the intra-frame prediction signal adopt the same weight, wherein N is a positive integer not less than 4.
2) And if the determined intra-frame prediction mode is a horizontal prediction mode or a vertical prediction mode, or the width and the height of the current CU are not less than N, determining different weights corresponding to the inter-frame prediction signal and the intra-frame prediction signal according to the determined intra-frame prediction mode and the position of the intra-frame prediction reference sample in the CU.
In specific implementation, if the determined intra-frame prediction mode is a horizontal prediction mode, dividing a CU into n sub-blocks with equal areas in the horizontal direction, and determining n weights from large to small of the corresponding sub-blocks according to the sequence from small to large of the distance from the intra-frame prediction reference sample;
if the determined intra-frame prediction mode is a vertical prediction mode, dividing the CU into n sub-blocks with equal areas in the orthogonal direction, and determining n weights from large to small of the corresponding sub-blocks according to the sequence from small to large of the distance from the intra-frame prediction reference sample, wherein n is a positive integer larger than 1.
The following is horizontal prediction with the determined intra prediction modeTo illustrate the mode, W is represented as the width of the current block, H is represented as the height of the current block, the coding block is first divided into four equal-area portions in the horizontal direction, each portion having a size (W/4) × H, the weight wt of each of the four regions is set to 6, 5, 3 and 2, respectively, starting from the portion closest to the intra-prediction reference sample and ending at the portion farthest from the intra-prediction reference sample, assuming that the determined inter-prediction signal is represented as PinterThe determined inter prediction signal is denoted as PintraThe final CIIP prediction signal PCIIPCan be derived by the following formula:
PCIIP=((8-wt)*Pinter+wt*Pintra)>>3
and presetting the mapping relation between different intra-frame prediction modes and the code words at the encoding end, so as to indicate the code words corresponding to the determined intra-frame prediction modes to the decoding end. Presetting the mapping relation between different intra-frame prediction modes and the code words, and adopting any one of the following methods:
1) according to an M-valued process defined by the HEVC specification, different intra prediction modes are mapped to corresponding M-ary codewords, where M is a positive integer greater than 1.
The intra-frame prediction modes commonly used in the CIIP prediction include four modes, namely a DC prediction mode, a plane prediction mode, a horizontal prediction mode and a vertical prediction mode. The shape of the CU includes a CU shape having a width greater than twice the height, a CU shape having a height greater than twice the width, a CU shape having a width not greater than twice the height and a height not greater than twice the width. In the case where the shape of a CU is a CU shape whose width is more than twice the height, the horizontal prediction mode is not allowed to be used, and in the case where the shape of a CU is a CU shape whose height is more than twice the width, the vertical prediction mode is not allowed to be used, in which case, only three prediction modes are allowed to be used.
When different intra-frame prediction modes are mapped into corresponding M-ary code words according to an M-valued process defined by HEVC (high efficiency video coding) specifications, a binarization process can be selected, and all intra-frame prediction modes defined by the HEVC specifications are mapped into corresponding binary code words according to the binarization process defined by the HEVC specifications; or according to the binarization process defined by the HEVC specification, mapping relationships between intra prediction modes and binary codewords applied to the CU of the shape are established for different CU shapes, respectively, that is, mapping relationships between intra prediction modes and binary codewords applied to the CU shapes are established for CU shapes having a width greater than twice the height, CU shapes having a height greater than twice the width, and CU shapes having a width not greater than twice the height and a height not greater than twice the width.
In specific implementation, different intra-frame prediction modes are mapped into corresponding binary codewords according to any one of a unitary binarization process, a truncated unitary binarization process, a fixed-length binarization process, a truncated rice binarization process and a K-order exponential golomb binarization process defined by the HEVC specification. The binarization process is defined in the specification, and the prior art can be adopted when the binarization process is implemented, and the details are not described here.
Referring to fig. 2, a schematic diagram of exemplary binary codewords obtained by using different binarization methods according to an embodiment of the present invention is provided. Assuming that there are N +1 intra prediction modes from mode 0 to mode N, the binary codeword for each intra prediction mode is generated using the same binarization process. For example, the correspondence between a column of binary codewords corresponding to truncated rice binarization and N +1 intra prediction modes as shown in fig. 2 constitutes a mapping between the intra prediction modes and the binary codewords generated according to the truncated rice binarization process defined in the HEVC specification. In the binarization process, "0" and "1" assigned to the binary codeword may be used in reverse, for example, in fig. 2, the binary codeword of mode 0 generated by unary binarization is "0", the binary codeword of mode 5 is "111110", and when used in reverse, the binary codeword of mode 0 is "1", and the binary codeword of mode 5 is "000001".
Referring to fig. 3, a schematic diagram of a binary codeword generated by truncated rice binarization according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown. Fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of a binary codeword generated by fixed-length binarization according to an embodiment of the present invention. Assuming that a CU shape having a width greater than twice the height is a first CU shape, a CU shape having a height greater than twice the width is a second CU shape, and a CU shape having a width not greater than twice the height and a height not greater than twice the width is a third CU shape, mapping relationships between the intra prediction mode applied to the CU shape and the binary codeword, which are established for different CU shapes, are given in fig. 3, respectively, and are shown in (a), (b), (c), and (d) parts of the figure. Fig. 4 shows mapping relationships between four intra-prediction modes and binary codewords generated by using a fixed-length binarization process, where the mapping relationships between intra-prediction modes and binary codewords applied to a CU in a shape are established for different CU shapes, and are respectively shown in (a), (b), (c), and (d) in the figure. According to the shape of the current CU and the determined intra prediction mode, by looking up the mapping relationship table between the preset intra prediction mode and the binary codeword as shown in fig. 3 or fig. 4, the encoding end can determine the corresponding binary codeword, then encode the binary codeword, and send the encoded binary codeword to the decoding end, thereby instructing the decoding end to determine the corresponding intra prediction mode.
The mapping relationship shown in fig. 3 or fig. 4 is only described as an example, and other binarization processes may be used to generate the corresponding mapping relationship in practice, and will not be described in detail here.
2) And establishing corresponding relations between different merging indexes and different intra-frame prediction modes.
The intra prediction mode is signaled together with the merge index by establishing correspondence of different merge indices and different intra prediction modes.
As an alternative, the merge index needs to indicate six inter prediction modes, and needs to indicate four intra prediction modes, and there are 6 combinations of currently available intra prediction modes and inter prediction modes. As a possible implementation, the planar prediction mode is corresponding to the merge indices 0 and 1, the DC prediction mode is corresponding to the merge indices 2 and 3, the horizontal prediction mode is corresponding to the merge index 4, and the vertical prediction mode is corresponding to the merge index 5.
As another possible implementation, the vertical prediction mode is assigned to the merge index 0, the horizontal prediction mode is assigned to the merge index 1, the planar prediction mode is assigned to the merge indices 2 and 3, and the DC prediction mode is assigned to the merge indices 4 and 5.
When intra-frame and inter-frame joint prediction CIIP is adopted, if the available intra-frame prediction mode is determined to be only one, the determined inter-frame prediction mode is only indicated to a decoding end through a merging index. As an alternative embodiment, if it is determined that only the plane prediction mode can be used, merging indexes 0-5 are all corresponding to the plane prediction mode.
The above two corresponding manners are only exemplary, and other methods for combining the intra prediction mode and the merge index may be included when actually determining the corresponding relationship.
3) And establishing mapping relations between different positions in the MPM list and the code words according to the most possible mode MPM list determined by the distance between the prediction angles.
Generating an MPM list according to an MPM list generation mode of a general intra-frame prediction mode, wherein the MPM list comprises all possible 67 intra-frame prediction modes, 65 intra-frame prediction modes except a DC prediction mode and a plane prediction mode have different prediction angles, according to the prediction angle difference between the prediction angle and the horizontal prediction mode and the vertical prediction mode, the prediction mode corresponding to the prediction angle is corresponding to the horizontal prediction mode or the vertical prediction mode, finally generating a corresponding MPM list, and then removing the redundant prediction mode in the MPM list to determine a final MPM list, wherein the final MPM list comprises the DC prediction mode, the plane prediction mode, the horizontal prediction mode and the vertical prediction mode. For example, if an angle mode in the conventional MPM list is closer to a vertical prediction mode, it is corresponding to the vertical prediction mode.
The multiple intra-frame prediction modes in the MPM list are ordered according to the most probable intra-frame prediction mode, the encoding end selects one intra-frame prediction mode from the multiple intra-frame prediction modes, and the position of the selected intra-frame prediction mode in the MPM list is indicated to the decoding end.
The above-mentioned MPM list generation method for the general intra prediction mode is a formation method of an MPM candidate list in the conventional CIIP prediction, and the MPM list generation in the present embodiment can adopt the conventional technique, and is not described in detail here.
The method includes that a mapping relation between different intra-frame prediction modes and code words is preset by any method, when CIIP prediction is carried out, a coding end indicates the determined inter-frame prediction mode to a decoding end through merging indexes, and indicates the code words corresponding to the determined intra-frame prediction mode to the decoding end, and the method specifically includes the following steps:
when the method 1) is adopted to preset the mapping relation between different intra-frame prediction modes and code words, the M-ary code words mapped by the different intra-frame prediction modes are indicated to a decoding end through signaling according to the M-valued process defined in advance according to the HEVC specification;
when the mapping relation between different intra-frame prediction modes and the code words is preset by adopting the mode 2), the determined intra-frame prediction mode is indicated to a decoding end through the merging index according to the corresponding relation between different pre-established merging indexes and different intra-frame prediction modes;
when the mapping relation between different intra-frame prediction modes and the code words is preset in the mode 3), the mapping relation between different positions in the MPM list and the code words is established according to the most probable mode MPM list determined in advance according to the distance between the prediction angles, and the code words corresponding to the determined positions of the intra-frame prediction modes in the MPM list are indicated to a decoding end.
When intra-frame and inter-frame joint prediction CIIP is adopted, if the available intra-frame prediction mode is determined to be only one, the determined inter-frame prediction mode is only indicated to a decoding end through a merging index.
And when the encoding end indicates the code word corresponding to the determined intra-frame prediction mode to the decoding end, the code word corresponding to the determined intra-frame prediction mode is encoded by adopting a CABAC (context-based adaptive binary arithmetic coding) method. Non-binary symbols are first "binarized" or converted to binary code, and each binary digit (or bit) of the binarized symbol is then encoded. Different context models may be selected when encoding, a context model being a probability model for one or more bins of a binarized symbol, the probability of each bin being stored. During encoding, an arithmetic encoder at the encoding end encodes each binary bit according to the selected context probability model.
As a possible implementation, context adaptive binary arithmetic CABAC coding is performed on the first m bins of the codeword corresponding to the determined intra prediction mode, each bin may have a context, and the other bins except the first N bins are bypass-coded, where m is a positive integer not less than 1. And after the coding is finished, the coding end indicates the coded code words to the decoding end.
As another possible implementation, the first binary bit of the codeword corresponding to the determined intra prediction mode is CABAC encoded, the coding model is selected according to the coding information, e.g., the size of the CU, and the other binary bits are bypass encoded. And after the coding is finished, the coding end indicates the coded code words to the decoding end.
The embodiment of the invention also provides a method for intra-frame and inter-frame joint prediction in video coding, which is applied to a video decoding end. As shown in fig. 5, the method includes:
step S501, acquiring a current video image frame, and determining a coding block CU in the video image frame;
and acquiring a current video image frame needing to be processed, and determining a coding block CU. The image division structure divides an input current video image frame into blocks called coding tree units CTUs, and divides one coding tree unit CTU into coding blocks CU using a quad tree having a nested multi-type tree structure, the coding blocks CU having leaf coding units defining regions sharing the same prediction mode, which may be intra-frame or inter-frame, etc. Each CU includes one or more prediction units PU and a transform unit tree.
Step S502, in the process of decoding the CU in the merging mode, when the CIIP is determined to be adopted in intra-frame and inter-frame joint prediction, determining the inter-frame prediction mode of the current CU according to the merging index indicated by the encoding end, and determining the intra-frame prediction mode of the current CU according to the preset mapping relation between different intra-frame prediction modes and the code words indicated by the encoding end;
the mapping relation between different intra-frame prediction modes and the code words is preset at a decoding end, so that after the indication of an encoding end is received, the corresponding intra-frame prediction mode is determined. When the mapping relation between different intra-frame prediction modes and code words is preset, any one of the following methods is adopted:
1) and mapping different intra-frame prediction modes into code words according to an M-valued process defined by a coding protocol specification.
According to an M-valued process defined by a coding protocol specification, different intra-frame prediction modes are mapped into code words, and all intra-frame prediction modes defined by the HEVC specification can be mapped into corresponding binary code words according to a binarization process defined by the HEVC specification; or, according to the binarization process defined in the HEVC specification, mapping relationships between intra prediction modes and binary codewords applied to the CU of the shape are established for different CU shapes, respectively, that is, mapping relationships between intra prediction modes and binary codewords applied to the CU shapes are established for CU shapes whose width is greater than twice the height, CU shapes whose height is greater than twice the width, and CU shapes whose width is not greater than twice the height and whose height is not greater than twice the width.
Specifically, any one of a unitary binarization process, a truncated unitary binarization process, a fixed-length binarization process, a truncated rice binarization process and a K-order exponential golomb binarization process defined by the HEVC specification may be adopted to map different intra-frame prediction modes into corresponding binary codewords. In practice, the same method as the above decoding end is adopted, and detailed description is omitted here.

when the method 1) is adopted to preset the mapping relationship between different intra-frame prediction modes and the code words, according to an M-valued process defined in advance according to the coding protocol specification, for the M-ary code words mapped by the different intra-frame prediction modes, it is determined that the intra-frame prediction mode corresponding to the M-ary code word indicated by the coding end through signaling is the intra-frame prediction mode of the current CU, where M is a positive integer greater than 1.
When the mapping relationship between different intra-frame prediction modes and the code words is preset in the mode 2), the intra-frame prediction mode corresponding to the merging index indicated by the encoding end is determined to be the intra-frame prediction mode of the current CU according to the pre-established corresponding relationship between different merging indexes and different intra-frame prediction modes.

When intra-frame and inter-frame joint prediction CIIP is adopted, if the available intra-frame prediction mode is determined to be only one, the decoding end determines that the intra-frame prediction mode is the intra-frame prediction mode of the current CU, and determines the inter-frame prediction mode of the current CU according to the merging index indicated by the decoding end.

In practice, the same method as the above decoding end is adopted, and detailed description is omitted here.
