Definitions
- the present invention relates to a data encoding and/or decoding method and system, and, in particular, to an encoding method and system, and a decoding method and system appropriate for compressing and decompressing computer data and game software programs.
- JBIG Joint Bi-level Image Group
- FIG.l shows a block diagram illustrating a standard JBIG system.
- a first block 101 is an electric circuit which uses a PRES (Progressive REduction Scheme) as an image resolution reduction system.
- a second block 102 is an electric circuit for performing DP (Deterministic Prediction).
- the DP is used to deterministicly predict a value of a pixel which is being encoded from values of surrounding pixels which have already been encoded. By using the DP, it is possible to improve an encoding efficiency.
- a third block is an electric circuit for setting a model template.
- a template is a reference pixel model to be used in encoding.
- FIG.2 shows an example of such a template. In the example, the template includes 10 pixels '1' to '10' surrounding a pixel to be encoded.
- a fourth block 104 is an entropy encoding circuit and uses the JBIG QM coder.
- the JBIG QM coder is a QM coder used in the JBIG. Usually, an arithmetic encoder is called a QM coder.
- the JBIG is the general name of the bi-level data encoding standard in the ITU (International Telecommunication Union). In the JBIG, the QM coder is used for encoding bi-level data.
- ITU-T Telecommunication Standardization Sector of ITU
- T.82 03/93
- Terminal Equipment and Protocols for Telematic Services Information Technology - Coded Representation of Picture and Audio Information - Progressive Bi-level Image Compres ⁇ ion, the teachings of which are hereby incorporated by reference, for the JBIG system.
- the template which has the highest compression rate is determined and is used as the fixed template.
- a compression circuit can be simplified.
- a compression rate is degraded.
- a respective template is provided to be used for compressing each one of a plurality of types of data. For example, when a color image is compressed, because each pixel comprises a plurality of bits, individual templates are used for a plurality of bit planes. However, in this method, because a template for each of the plurality of bit planes is fixed, the system is not satisfactory enough for a reason similar to the reason mentioned above for the above-described system in which a fixed template is used.
- a system which processes color images in a manner in which a number of bits (number of bit planes) allocated for a single pixel varies, such as the above-described system in which a color image is processed, has been known.
- an encoding method in the related art can be applied only to a system in which a number of bit planes is fixed. Therefore, it has not been possible to apply a template-use encoding method to such a system which processes color images in a manner in which a number of bits allocated for a single pixel varies.
- An encoding method comprises the steps of: a) (S2) encoding and thus compressing to-be-compressed data each time when using a respective one of a plurality of templates; b) (S4) comparing compression rates of encoded data with each other which encoded data was encoded each time when a respective one of the plurality of templates was used in the step a); and c) (S6) outputting encoded data having the highest compression rate and template identification information of a template used when the encoded data having the highest compression rate was obtained in the step a).
- Another encoding method comprises the steps of: a) dividing to-be-compressed data into a plurality of bit planes of data; b) encoding and thus compressing each bit plane of data each time when using a respective one of a plurality of templates; c) for each bit plane of data, comparing compression rates of encoded data with each other which encoded data was encoded each time when a respective one of the plurality of templates was used in the step b); and d) for each bit plane of data, outputting encoded data having the highest compression rate and template identification information of a template used when the encoded data having the highest compression rate was obtained in the step b).
- Another encoding method comprises the steps of: a) dividing to-be-compressed data into a plurality of bit planes of data, a number of the plurality of bit planes of data being variable; and b) encoding and thus compressing each bit plane of data.
- a decoding method comprises the steps of: a) selecting a template of a plurality of templates, which template is to be used when decoding encoded data in a step b), using template identification information, the template having been used when encoded data having the highest compression rate was obtained through encoding; and b) decoding the encoded data using the template selected in the step a).
- Another decoding method comprises the steps of: a) for each bit plane of encoded data, selecting a template of a plurality of templates, which template is to be used when decoding encoded data in a step b), using template identification information, the template having been used when encoded data having the highest compression rate was obtained through encoding; and b) for each bit plane of encoded data, decoding the encoded data using the template selected in the step a).
- Another decoding method comprises the steps of: a) receiving encoded data which comprises a plurality of bit planes of data, a number of the plurality of bit planes of data being variable when the plurality of bit planes of data was obtained as a result of dividing to-be-compressed data; and b) decoding each bit plane of data of the plurality of bit planes of data.

- FIG.3 shows a block diagram of an encoding apparatus in a first embodiment of an encoding system and method in the present invention.
- FIG.4 shows an operation flowchart of an encoding operation performed by the encoding apparatus shown in FIG.3.
- FIG.5 shows encode data structures which are supplied by the encoding apparatus shown in FIG.3.
- the encoding operation is performed by a CPU 51 shown in FIG.3 on supplied original data, using software programs previously stored in a ROM 52.
- the CPU 51 performs the operation shown in FIG.4 as a result of executing the software programs.
- the CPU 51 performs the encoding operation and thus outputs encoded data which is written in a RAM 53.
- the encoded data written in the RAM 53 is used for storing the same data in a ROM which is connected to a decoding apparatus which decodes the encoded data stored in the ROM.
- a candidate template is prepared in SI.
- a candidate template is produced by selecting six pixels from the ten pixels '1' to '10' shown in the figure for the to-be- encoded pixel.
- a total of IQ ⁇ 6 combinations are possible and thus a total of ⁇ ) Cg candidate templates are produced.
- a file of to-be-encoded data (to-be- compressed data) is encoded (compressed) using the candidate template prepared in SI.
- output data for files of to-be-encoded data have data structures shown in FIG.4.
- Each data structure of the data structures includes a group of encoded data which is the encoded data output by the CPU 51 for a respective file of the to-be-encoded data.
- Each data structure further includes the above ⁇ mentioned template preparation information which is added at the top of the group of encoded data as shown in the figure. Because files of supplied to-be-encoded data may have different characteristics, a template which is used for encoding a file of to-be-encoded data and as a result provides a highest compression rate may be different from a template which is used for encoding another file of to-be-encoded data and as a result provides a highest compression rate.
- the optimum template is determined for each file of to-be-encoded data.
- files of to-be- encoded data may include a background image, a character (person, animal, or the like) image and so forth.
- each file of to-be- encoded data has a small data amount. Therefore, the above-described method is advantageous because the operation shown in FIG.4 is very simple and does not require a long time to perform.
- FIG.6 shows a functional block diagram of a part of the encoding system shown in FIG.3, which part performs the encoding step S2 shown in FIG.4.
- the to- be-encoded data and information of a candidate template are supplied to a probability calculation unit 61.
- the probability calculation unit 61 obtains values of 6 reference pixels of the candidate template for a to-be-encoded pixel, and supplies the obtained 6 pixel values to a probability table memory 62 as an address.
- a probability table memory 62 a respective probability is stored for each state of 2° states (which are referred to as 'contexts' ) at a respective address.
- Such a probability is a probability that a to-be-encoded pixel has a value of a predetermined symbol (normally, MPS, '0').
- the 6 reference pixels are used as a sixth Markov model and the possible 2° states are defined as the contexts (which are represented by integers) .
- the probability table memory 62 receives the 6 pixel values as the address, and outputs the respective probability to an arithmetic encoding unit 63.
- the arithmetic encoding unit 63 performs arithmetic encoding (which is one of entropy encoding) using the probability and the actual value of the to-be-encoded pixel.
- a compression rate can be improved as prediction of a value of a to-be-encoded pixel is improved. That is, since an actual possibility that a to-be-encoded pixel has a symbol which was previously predicted therefor is higher, a resulting compression rate can be improved.
- a template is demanded appropriate for the characteristics of a particular to-be-encoded image data file.
- any template-use encoding system in the related art such as that shown in FIG.l can be used for performing the encoding system shown in FIG.3.
- the encoding step S2 shown in FIG.4 is performed by the entropy encoding circuit 104.
- a candidate template preparation in SI shown in FIG.4 is performed.
- the above-mentioned M- ⁇ reference pixels of the template are six reference pixels of the template.

- FIG.7 shows a general block diagram of a
- ROM-cartridge system in the second embodiment of the present invention.

- the encoded image data may be an encoded data file which is supplied by the encoding system in the first embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG.3.
- a line memory 5 stores three lines of data which have been obtained as a result of decoding the encoded image data. Through memory reading means (not shown in the figure), ten pixels of decoded data located in ten pixels '1' to '10' shown in FIG.2 for a to-be-decoded pixel is read from the line memory 5.
- the read decoded data is supplied to a multiplexer 4.
- the multiplexer 4 selects 6 pixels of data from the supplied ten pixels of decoded data according to the template preparation information.
- the template information is stored in the ROM 1 and accompanies the encoded data file in the ROM 1 as shown in FIG.5.
- the template information is read out from the ROM 1 when the encoded data file is decoded, and is supplied the multiplexer 4 through a buffer memory (not shown in the figure).
- the multiplexer 4 supplies the selected 6 pixels of data to a probability table memory 2 as an address, which probability table memory is identical to the probability table memory 62 shown in FIG.6.
- the probability table memory 2 receives the 6 pixels of data, uses it as the address thereof and outputs an above-mentioned symbol appearance probability stored at the address.
- a processing circuit 3 uses the encoded data read out from the ROM 1 and probability data read out from the probability table memory 2, and produces a decoded bit sequentially as a result of thus decoding the encoded data.
- the produced decoded bit is supplied to and stored in the line memory 5 sequentially. Then, when a subsequent pixel is decoded, ten pixels of data supplied from the line memory to the multiplexer are shifted by one pixel rightward in FIG.7, and an operation similar to the operation described above is performed subsequently for the current to-be-decoded pixel.
- a template having a highest compression rate is determined and compressed data obtained through the template is output.
