Video encoding and decoding techniques and apparatus
First Claim
Patent Images
1. For use in conjunction with a video encoding/decoding technique wherein images are encoded using truncatable image-representable signals in bit plane form, the method comprising the steps of:
- selecting a number of bitplanes to be used in a prediction loop; and
producing an alignment parameter in a syntax portion of an encoded bitstream that determines the alignment of bitplanes with respect to the prediction loop.

8. For use in conjunction with a video encoding/decoding technique wherein image frames are encoded using truncatable image-representable signals in bit plane form, and subsequently decoded with a decoder, a method comprising the steps of:
-
selecting a number of bitplanes to be used in a prediction loop; and
producing an encoded bitstream for each frame that includes an alignment parameter which determines the alignment of bitplanes with respect to the prediction loop. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
