DEVICE FOR ENCODING A HIERARCHICAL INTRA PREDICTION MODE CAPABLE OF HIERARCHICALLY ENCODING AN INTRA PREDICTION MODE BY GROUPING THE INTRA PREDICTION MODE AND A METHOD THEREOF

摘要

PURPOSE: A device for encoding a hierarchical intra prediction mode and a method thereof are provided to improve the whole video compression performance by efficiently transmitting the hierarchical intra prediction mode.;CONSTITUTION: An entropy decoder(100) decodes an input bit stream. A de-quantization and inverse transform encoder(110) performs de-quantization and inverse transform for the decoded input bit stream. An intra prediction mode producer(120) decodes an intra prediction mode by using a hierarchical structure. An intra prediction decoder(130) restores an image by intra prediction. An inter prediction decoder(140) restores the image by inter prediction.;COPYRIGHT KIPO 2013;[Reference numerals] (100) Entropy decoder; (110) De-quantization and inverse transform encoder; (120) Intra prediction mode producer; (130) Intra prediction decoder; (140) Inter prediction decoder; (150) Restoration image storage unit; (AA) Bit stream
