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:
Embodiments are provided for compressing a color index map in video coding applications including screen content images. An embodiment method includes obtaining, at a video codec device, an image block, and generating a color index map comprising a plurality of entries and representing the image block. Each one of the entries is assigned a color index indicating a respective color. The method further includes assigning, in a correct prediction map, a first bit-value for each one of the entries that is predictable by a neighboring entry in the color index map, and a second bit-value for each one of the entries that is unpredictable by any neighboring entry in the color index map. Further, an actual value from the color index map for the each one of the entries that is unpredictable by any neighboring entry is added in a sequence of non-predictable color indices.
