The patent's assignee for patent number 11882269 is Socionext Inc. (Kanagawa, Japan). News editors obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors: “Encoding of moving images is roughly divided into preceding “implementer-dependent” processing and succeeding “standardized” processing. The former corresponds to determining various modes such as determination of the size of encoded blocks, intra prediction, and motion detection. On the other hand, the latter corresponds to standardized processing performed in accordance with the mode determined in the former processing, such as orthogonal transformation, quantization, entropy coding, and motion compensation. “The former mode determination is processing performed in accordance with a theoretical algorithm and corresponds to obtaining an optimum or quasi optimum combination from among an enormous number of combinations. Thus, it becomes possible to design a mode determination engine that performs such mode determination. Note that the engine is a device that executes data processing and is, for example, hardware such as an electronic circuit, or an integrated system of software and hardware, the integrated system including programs and a CPU executing programs.
