<p>A predictively-coded object-based picture signal representing a group of pictures is transcoded into a predictively-coded block-based picture signal representing the group of pictures by extracting a coded scene descriptor and coded object descriptors from the predictively-coded object-based picture signal. The coded scene descriptor is decoded to generate a scene descriptor. The coded object descriptors are partially decoded to generate respective partially-decoded object descriptors. The decoding extracts coding information that describes the predictive coding of the coded object descriptors. In response to the scene descriptor, a frame of a partially-encoded block-based picture signal representing one of the pictures as a current picture is generated from the partially-decoded object descriptors. Finally, a frame of the predictively-coded block-based picture signal representing the current picture is generated by predictively coding the partially-coded block-based picture signal to a uniform coding state in response to the coding information.</p> |
