MPM을 병합하여 인트라 예측 모드를 시그널링하는 방법

Abstract

In this paper, we proposed an intra coding method with merging intra prediction mode to achieve intra coding gain. The proposed method uses signaling of prediction mode with merging prediction modes, which is different from the conventional method. If the number of blocks that has the same prediction mode compared to that to be predicted from neighboring blocks exceeds the predefined threshold, then the proposed method is used in order to reduce bits of intra prediction mode for coding efficiency. Otherwise the conventional method is used. Experimental results show the proposed method achieves the PSNR gain of about 0.05 dB in RD curve and reduces the bit rates about 1 % compared with H.264/AVC. In particular, the PSNR gain of about 0.1 dB in RD curve and reduces the bit rates about 1.7 % compared with H.264/AVC at low bit-rates. we can know that the proposed method is efficient tool at low bit-rates.
