Patent Searching and Data


Title:
画像符号化方法および画像装置
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP4037824
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
An image encoding method and an image device effective for a large number of applications without requesting any changes on the decoding side by allowing the encoding side to have processing for reducing noise generation. A pixel of gradation value of 255 corresponding to white is changed to the value outside the gradation range in the direction opposite to black. This means that the value is set to be much larger than the gradation value of 255 which is the maximum white in the color expression. The image subjected to gradation shifting is encoded to generate a ripple (31) which is larger than the gradation value of 255 in the white part of the image. However, the abnormal state of the ripple-like image in the decoded image before clipping is formed around the gradation value higher than the gradation value of 255.
