Abstract:
A method and device for coding screen content into a bitstream by selecting a color palette table for a coding unit (CU) of screen content, creating a color index map having indices for the coding unit (CU), and encoding the selected color palette table and the color index map for the CU into a bitstream.
Abstract:
An encoding apparatus, decoding apparatus, and coding methods are provided. A method of decoding including receiving, by a decoder, a bitstream from an encoder, scanning, using the decoder, the bitstream to identify a first flag corresponding to a string of index values in a block other than a last string and a second flag corresponding to the last string of index values from the block, determining, by the decoder, that a context model used to encode the first flag is the same as the context model used to encode the second flag, and generating, by the decoder, a video frame using the context model.
Abstract:
An encoding apparatus and coding methods. The method includes receiving a video frame including screen content, generating a block containing an index map of colors for screen content in the video frame, wherein the block includes strings of index values, encoding one or multiple consecutive index values in a first string of index values using same escape colors index values and a run value identifying how many of the same escape color index values have been consecutively encoded, where the escape colors index values represent escape colors, and where the escape colors are colors not included in a palette corresponding to the block, sequentially encoding the escape colors corresponding to the one or multiple consecutive index values after all of the strings of index values of the block have been encoded, and transmitting the strings of index values and the escape colors in a bitstream to a decoding apparatus.

An apparatus comprises: a memory; and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to: obtain a current block of a video frame, obtain candidate MVs corresponding to neighboring blocks of the video frame, the neighboring blocks neighbor the current block, obtain precisions of the candidate MVs, perform first rounding of the precisions based on a rounding scheme, perform second rounding of the candidate MVs based on the first rounding, perform pruning of the candidate MVs, and generate a candidate list based on the second rounding and the pruning.
Abstract:
A computing device includes a communication interface, a memory, and processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is coupled to the communication interface and to the memory and is configured to execute the operational instructions to perform various functions. The computing device is configured to process a video frame of a video segment on a per-frame basis and based on joint human-object interactive activity (HOIA) to generate a per-frame pairwise human-object interactive (HOI) feature based on a plurality of candidate HOI pairs. The computing device is also configured to process the per-frame pairwise HOI feature to identify a valid HOI pair among the plurality of candidate HOI pairs and to track the valid HOI pair through subsequent frames of the video segment to generate a contextual spatial-temporal feature for the valid HOI pair to be used in activity detection.
Abstract:
In an embodiment, the disclosure includes an object detecting device. The object detecting device is configured to execute the instructions to: obtain a first picture comprising a first object at a first time instant; determine a first feature pattern of the first object based on the first picture; generate a first feature map of the first object based on the first feature pattern; generate a first feature vector of the first object based on the first feature map; and send the first feature vector to a server. In this embodiment, the first feature vector is generated based on the first feature map by the object detecting device rather than starting another process of directly generating the first feature map based on the first picture. Therefore, the speed and the computing resource cost of generating the feature vector may be better.
