A video encoding apparatus includes a correction unit that corrects filter coefficients of an in-loop filter applied to an encoded reference block adjacent to a block to be encoded, based on a quantization value applied to the reference block and a quantization value applied to the block to be encoded when a mode of an in-loop filter applied to the block to be encoded is same as a mode of the in-loop filter applied to the reference block, a filter processing unit that uses the corrected filter coefficients to apply the in-loop filter to a locally-decoded block that is obtained by encoding the block to be encoded once and decoding the encoded block to be encoded, and an addition unit that adds, to encoded data of the block to be encoded, information indicating that the block to be encoded refers to the reference block for the in-loop filter.

An image coding method includes (S801) coding a motion vector difference indicating a difference between the motion vector and a predicted motion vector, wherein the coding (S801) includes: coding a first portion that is a part of a first component which is one of a horizontal component and a vertical component of the motion vector difference; coding a second portion that is a part of a second component which is different from the first component and is the other one of the horizontal component and the vertical component; coding a third portion that is a part of the first component and is different from the first portion; coding a fourth portion that is a part of the second component and is different from the second portion; and generating a code string which includes the first portion, the second portion, the third portion, and the fourth portion in the stated order.

Pixel data of a video sequence with enhanced dynamic range (EDR) are predicted based on pixel data of a corresponding video sequence with standard dynamic range (SDR) and a piecewise inter-layer predictor. The output parameters of the piecewise predictor are computed based atleast on two sets of pre-computed values and a prediction cost criterion. The first set of pre-computed values applies to all input SDR frames and comprises a set of SDR pixel values raised to one or more integer power terms. The second set of pre-computed values is frame specific and is computed based on a histogram of an input SDR frame and pixel values of the corresponding EDR frame. The pre-computed values allow for a fast iterative algorithm to identify the best pivot points for the piecewise polynomials according to a prediction cost and to solve for the coefficients of the piecewise predictor.

In a particular implementation, a video decoder may decode an initial motion vector predictor from the bitstream for a current block, and perform motion search in a small search window to refine the initial motion vector predictor. The initial motion vector may be rounded before being refined. The motion refinement can be based on a discontinuity measure between pixels of a current block and pixels of adjacent block, and can also be based on gradients between the current block and adjacent blocks. The motion vector for the current block is then decoded based on the refined motion vector predictor, and the motion vector difference if there is any. The motion refinement can also be performed on the motion vector for the current block directly. Through motion refinement, the decoder may increase the motion resolution. A corresponding video encoder may choose whether to use motion refinement based on encoder decisions.

摘要:
In hierarchical motion estimation, in each motion estimation hierarchy level, a pixel block matcher for comparing correspondingly sampled pixel values of a current image and a delayed previous image is used in order to compute a motion vector for every pixel, wherein - by evaluating displaced frame differences in the measurement window - a segmentation of the measurement window into different moving object regions is performed. The corresponding segmentation information is stored, and the stored segmentation information is used as an initial segmentation mask for motion estimation in the following finer level of the motion estimation hierarchy. In the following finer level of the motion estimation hierarchy an updated segmentation information is determined. This processing continues until the finest level of said motion estimation hierarchy is reached. The resulting segmentation information values of successive search window positions can be combined.
