Abstract

The invention provides a fast partitioning method of HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding) intraframe coding units based on a decision tree. The method comprises the following steps: acquiring texture features of a current coding unit by constructing a histogram, wherein the texture features comprise the number of edge points of the current coding unit, the variance of a brightness value, the variance of a mean value of a subblock brightness value of the current coding unit and the variance of a subblock brightness value variance; and predicting the coding depth of the current coding unit by adopting a decision tree model according to the texture features. Since the texture features of the current coding unit are analyzed by constructing the histogram, and adaptive selection of the coding scale is performed by using the texture features through the decision tree model, thus unnecessary coding scale calculation can be skipped; and besides, experimental results show that the method provided by the invention saves 31% coding time on average during intraframe coding, while the average bit stream is increases by about 2.6% and at the same time, the PSNR of a video basically remains unchanged, thereby greatly reducing the coding complexity of the HEVC.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC), in particular to a method for quickly dividing HEVC intra-frame coding units based on a decision tree. Background technique [0002] High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) is another new video coding standard after H.264. Compared with H.264, HEVC introduces a large number of innovative technologies, which can save nearly 50% of the bit rate while providing the same video quality. However, the higher performance of HEVC video coding comes at the cost of higher computational complexity, making it difficult to effectively apply HEVC to real-time communication applications. [0003] For example, for the coded block structure, HEVC adopts a tree structure, and the coding unit can be divided into smaller blocks by quadtree division. Each frame of image is divided into several coding tree units (Coding Tree Units, CTUs), and each CTU can be divided into coding units (...
