摘要： A decoder which can detect errors in MPEG-2 coefficient blocks can identify syntactically-correct blocks which have out-of-bounds coefficients. The decoder computes coefficient bounds based on quantization scalers and quantization matrices and compares these to coefficient blocks during decoding; if a block has out-of-bounds coefficients, concealment is performed on the block. In a decoder implemented all in software, coefficient bounds checking is performed on iDCT coefficients against upper and lower bounds in a spatial domain. In a decoder which performs iDCT in hardware, DCT coefficients are compared to an upper energy bound.

摘要： An audio encoder and decoder use architectures and techniques that improve the efficiency of multi-channel audio coding and decoding. The described strategies include various techniques and tools, which can be used in combination or independently. For example, an audio encoder performs a pre-processing multi-channel transform on multi-channel audio data, varying the transform so as to control quality. The encoder groups multiple windows from different channels into one or more tiles and outputs tile configuration information, which allows the encoder to isolate transients that appear in a particular channel with small windows, but use large windows in other channels. Using a variety of techniques, the encoder performs flexible multi-channel transforms that effectively take advantage of inter-channel correlation. An audio decoder performs corresponding processing and decoding. In addition, the decoder performs a post-processing multi-channel transform for any of multiple different purposes.

摘要： Video decoding innovations for using local picture identifiers and computing co-located information are described. In one aspect, a decoder identifies reference pictures in a reference picture list of a temporal direct prediction mode macroblock that match reference pictures used by a co-located macroblock using local picture identifiers. In another aspect, a decoder determines whether reference pictures used by blocks are the same by comparing local picture identifiers during calculation of boundary strength. In yet another aspect, a decoder determines a picture type of a picture and based on the picture type selectively skips or simplifies computation of co-located information for use in reconstructing direct prediction mode macroblocks outside the picture.

摘要： An audio encoder and decoder use architectures and techniques that improve the efficiency of quantization (e.g., weighting) and inverse quantization (e.g., inverse weighting) in audio coding and decoding. The described strategies include various techniques and tools, which can be used in combination or independently. For example, an audio encoder quantizes audio data in multiple channels, applying multiple channel-specific quantizer step modifiers, which give the encoder more control over balancing reconstruction quality between channels. The encoder also applies multiple quantization matrices and varies the resolution of the quantization matrices, which allows the encoder to use more resolution if overall quality is good and use less resolution if overall quality is poor. Finally, the encoder compresses one or more quantization matrices using temporal prediction to reduce the bitrate associated with the quantization matrices. An audio decoder performs corresponding inverse processing and decoding.

摘要： An audio processing tool measures the quality of reconstructed audio data. For example, an audio encoder measures the quality of a block of reconstructed frequency coefficient data in a quantization loop. The invention includes several techniques and tools, which can be used in combination or separately. First, before measuring quality, the tool normalizes the block to account for variation in block sizes. Second, for the quality measurement, the tool processes the reconstructed data by critical bands, which can differ from the quantization bands used to compress the data. Third, the tool accounts for the masking effect of the reconstructed data, not just the masking effect of the original data. Fourth, the tool band weights the quality measurement, which can be used to account for noise substitution or band truncation. Finally, the tool changes quality measurement techniques depending on the channel coding mode.

摘要： An audio encoder regulates quality and bitrate with a control strategy. The strategy includes several features. First, an encoder regulates quantization using quality, minimum bit count, and maximum bit count parameters. Second, an encoder regulates quantization using a noise measure that indicates reliability of a complexity measure. Third, an encoder normalizes a control parameter value according to block size for a variable-size block. Fourth, an encoder uses a bit-count control loop de-linked from a quality control loop. Fifth, an encoder addresses non-monotonicity of quality measurement as a function of quantization level when selecting a quantization level. Sixth, an encoder uses particular interpolation rules to find a quantization level in a quality or bit-count control loop. Seventh, an encoder filters a control parameter value to smooth quality. Eighth, an encoder corrects model bias by adjusting a control parameter value in view of current buffer fullness.

摘要： An audio encoder implements multi-channel coding decision, band truncation, multi-channel rematrixing, and header reduction techniques to improve quality and coding efficiency. In the multi-channel coding decision technique, the audio encoder dynamically selects between joint and independent coding of a multi-channel audio signal via an open-loop decision based upon (a) energy separation between the coding channels, and (b) the disparity between excitation patterns of the separate input channels. In the band truncation technique, the audio encoder performs open-loop band truncation at a cut-off frequency based on a target perceptual quality measure. In multi-channel rematrixing technique, the audio encoder suppresses certain coefficients of a difference channel by scaling according to a scale factor, which is based on current average levels of perceptual quality, current rate control buffer fullness, coding mode, and the amount of channel separation in the source. In the header reduction technique, the audio encoder selectively modifies the quantization step size of zeroed quantization bands so as to encode in fewer frame header bits.

摘要： Techniques and tools for reordering of spectral coefficients in encoding and decoding are described herein. For certain types and patterns of content, coefficient reordering reduces redundancy that is due to periodic patterns in the spectral coefficients, making subsequent entropy encoding more efficient. For example, an audio encoder receives spectral coefficients logically organized along one dimension such as frequency, reorders at least some of the spectral coefficients, and entropy encodes the spectral coefficients after the reordering. Or, an audio decoder receives entropy encoded information for such spectral coefficients, entropy decodes the information, and reverses reordering of at least some of the spectral coefficients.

摘要： CBR control strategies provide constant or relatively constant bitrate output with variable quality. The control strategies include various techniques and tools, which can be used in combination or independently. For example, an audio encoder uses a trellis in two-pass or delayed-decision CBR encoding. The trellis nodes are states derived by quantizing buffer fullness values. The transitions between nodes of a previous stage and nodes of a current stage depend on encoding a current chunk of audio at different quality levels. When pruning the trellis, the encoder uses a cost function that considers smoothness in quality as well as quality in absolute terms. The encoder may store compressed data at different quality levels, then output the compressed data after simplification of the trellis to a suitable point. If the two-pass or delayed-decision CBR encoding fails, the encoder uses one-pass CBR encoding for the sequence or part of the sequence.

摘要： Quantization matrices facilitate digital audio encoding and decoding. An audio encoder generates and compresses quantization matrices; an audio decoder decompresses and applies the quantization matrices. The invention includes several techniques and tools, which can be used in combination or separately. For example, the audio encoder can generate quantization matrices from critical band patterns for blocks of audio data. The encoder can compute the quantization matrices directly from the critical band patterns, which can be computed from the same audio data that is being compressed. The audio encoder/decoder can use different modes for generating/applying quantization matrices depending on the coding channel mode of multi-channel audio data. The audio encoder/decoder can use different compression/decompression modes for the quantization matrices, including a parametric compression/decompression mode.
