Abstract

Selon l'invention, pour un décalage adaptatif d'échantillon (SAO), une classification peut être utilisée pour classifier les pixels en de multiples catégories et des pixels dans chaque catégorie sont soumis à une compensation de décalage en utilisant une valeur de décalage pour la catégorie. La classification peut être basée sur des valeurs du pixel courant et de ses pixels voisins avant compensation SAO. En conséquence, le pixel compensé SAO ne peut pas être réécrit à l'emplacement de pixel courant avant que la catégorie soit déterminée pour tous les pixels. Un mode de réalisation de la présente invention consiste à stocker la relation entre le pixel courant et ledit ou lesdits pixels voisins de manière à ce que le pixel courant compensé SAO puisse remplacer le pixel courant sans mettre en tampon les pixels devant être traités pour une classification. Le processus SAO peut être effectué région par région pour être adapté aux caractéristiques locales de l'image. Une optimisation débit-distorsion (RDO) est souvent utilisée pour guider la décision de mode, telle qu'une décision de division de région/fusion de régions. Des calculs associés au processus RDO sont généralement très gourmands en temps de calcul. En conséquence, une estimation de réduction de distorsion est développée qui peut sensiblement réduire les calculs requis associés à la RDO.
