    Abstract: The precision of up-sampling operations in a layered coding system is preserved when operating on video data with high bit-depth. In response to bit-depth requirements of the video coding or decoding system, scaling and rounding parameters are determined for a separable up-scaling filter. Input data are first filtered across a first spatial direction using a first rounding parameter to generate first up-sampled data. First intermediate data are generated by scaling the first up-sampled data using a first shift parameter. The intermediate data are then filtered across a second spatial direction using a second rounding parameter to generate second up-sampled data. Second intermediate data are generated by scaling the second up-sampled data using a second shift parameter. Final up-sampled data may be generated by clipping the second intermediate data.

    Abstract: Sequence-level parameters are generated for an image frame sequence including sequence-level indicators for indicating metadata types present for each image frame in the sequence of image frames. Frame-present parameters are generated for a specific image frame in the sequence including frame-present indicators corresponding to the metadata types as indicated in the sequence-level parameters. The frame-present indicators identify first metadata types for which metadata parameter values are to be encoded in a coded bitstream as metadata payloads. The image frame sequence, the sequence-level parameters, the frame-present parameters and the metadata payloads are encoded in the coded bitstream. A recipient device can generate, from the specific image frame based partly on the metadata parameter values determined for the first metadata types, a target display image for a target display.

    Abstract: Methods for quantization parameter (QP) prediction are presented. In a coded bitstream that includes QP values, instead of simply embedding all delta QP values in the bitstream, the bitstream may include QP-related syntax elements that allow a decoder to reconstruct the delta QP values using luma-based QP prediction. Encoding and decoding bitstream examples are provided where delta QP values may be predicted using information from just the luminance values of the prediction blocks of the current block or by additional luminance information from its known neighbors (e.g., from the left or above blocks) and a base QP value.

    Abstract: In a method to improve the coding efficiency of high-dynamic range (HDR) images, a decoder parses sequence processing set (SPS) data from an input coded bitstream to detect that an HDR extension syntax structure is present in the parsed SPS data. It extracts from the HDR extension syntax structure post-processing information that includes one or more of a color space enabled flag, a color enhancement enabled flag, an adaptive reshaping enabled flag, a dynamic range conversion flag, a color correction enabled flag, or an SDR viewable flag. It decodes the input bitstream to generate a preliminary output decoded signal, and generates a second output signal based on the preliminary output signal and the post-processing information.
