ABSTRACT:
A generic spatially-scalable shape encoding apparatus and method for handling different mask decomposition methods, while maximizing coding efficiency of the encoder, is disclosed. The present generic spatially-scalable shape encoding applies three encoding steps to maximize the coding efficiency of the encoder, i.e., mask mode encoding, base mask layer coding and enhancement mask layer coding.
