摘要:
Intra prediction is used in state-of-the-art video coding standards such as AVC. The intra prediction modes are coded into the bitstream. Luma and chroma components could potentially have different prediction modes. For chroma components, there are 7 different modes defined in AVC: vertical, horizontal, DC, diagonal directions, and “same as luma”. Statistics show that the “same as luma” mode is frequently used, but in AVC, this mode is encoded using more bits than other modes during entropy coding, therefore the coding efficiency is decreased. Accordingly, a modified binarization/codeword assignment for chroma intra mode signaling is able to be utilized for high efficiency video coding (HEVC), the next generation video coding standard.

摘要:
A parametric loop filter uses a set of fixed filters to remove or reduce noise and artifacts introduced during video coding. The filters are pre-trained offline and hardwired into encoder and decoder, instead of online trained Wiener filters. The filters are able to be specified using one or more parameters including: direction, bandwidth along the direction (bw//) and bandwidth perpendicular to the direction (bw⊥). The filter to be used is able to be derived from local image characteristics or predicted from neighboring blocks. The parametric loop filter utilizes much less computation, delay and memory access at the encoder. Fixed coefficients allow fast implementation of filtering at the decoder. A parametric loop filter is able to be combined with online training to further improve performance, by allowing one or more fixed filters to be replaced with online trained Wiener filters.

By implementing a new bitstream for a Delta-Quantization Parameter (DQP), a decoder is able to implement parallel decoding of multiple coding units within a largest coding unit. In some embodiments, the DQP is placed immediately after the mode information of the first coding unit. In some embodiments, the DQP is placed after the mode information of the first non-skipped coding unit. In some embodiments, the DQP is placed after the first non-zero coded block flag.

An apparatus comprising a first node configured to communicate with a second node, wherein the first node is configured to receive a first stream from the second node, receive a bridging stream from the second node, and receive the second stream from the second node, and wherein the bridging stream has a lower bit-rate than the second stream. Included is an apparatus comprising at least one processor configured to implement a method comprising transmitting a first stream at a first time, transmitting a bridging stream that has a bit-rate greater than the first stream and less than the second stream at a second time, and transmitting the second stream at a third time.

A simplified parametric loop filter uses a set of fixed filters to remove or reduce noise and artifacts introduced during video coding. The simplified parametric loop filter uses the parameters such as direction and bandwidth to uniquely identify a fixed filter from the set of filters. The simplified parametric loop filter implements symmetry between filters, symmetry within each filter, unity DC gain and zero-forcing to 1) reduce the storage space in memorizing the fixed filters, and 2) reduce the computational complexity for performing filtering.
