    Abstract: To let decoder side motion vector derivation (DMVD) coded blocks be decoded in parallel, decoder side motion estimation (ME) dependency on spatially neighboring reconstructed pixels can be removed. Mirror ME and projective ME are only performed on two reference pictures, and the spatially neighboring reconstructed pixels will not be considered in the measurement metric of the decoder side ME. Also, at a video decoder, motion estimation for a target block in a current picture can be performed by calculating a motion vector for a spatially neighboring DMVD block, using the calculated motion vector to predict motion vectors of neighboring blocks of the DMVD block, and decoding the DMVD block and the target block in parallel. In addition, determining a best motion vector for a target block in a current picture can be performed by searching only candidate motion vectors in a search window, wherein candidate motion vectors are derived from a small range motion search around motion vectors of neighboring blocks.

    Abstract: Adaptive control can use hierarchical motion estimation (HME) and/or multiple reference motion estimation (MRME) for the motion estimation of current encoding blocks. Both HME and MRME are allowed in the motion estimation to achieve a high coding gain. Control consists of slice level control and macro-block (MB) level control. A slice is one or more contiguous macroblocks. In slice level control, it is decided to use only one reference frame or use multiple reference frames to coding current slice based on the motion vectors obtained in coarse level motion estimation. In MB level control, it is decided to perform MRME or perform HME for the MB and its subblocks based on the coarse level motion vectors of the MB.

    Abstract: Reconstructed picture quality for a video codec system may be improved by categorizing reconstructed pixels into different histogram bins with histogram segmentation and then applying different filters on different bins. Histogram segmentation may be performed by averagely dividing the histogram into M bins or adaptively dividing the histogram into N bins based on the histogram characteristics. Here M and N may be a predefined, fixed, non-negative integer value or an adaptively generated value at encoder side and may be sent to decoder through the coded bitstream.

    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed involving contrast adjustment for images. For example, an input image is classified based on its pixel value characteristics, as expressed in an input brightness histogram. From such a classification, a target histogram distribution for a corresponding output image (i.e., a contrast-adjusted transformation of the input image) may be specified. With the target histogram of the output image specified, a transformation function may be derived that maps input image values to output image values. Moreover, transitions of such transformation functions may be smoothed. Such smoothing may provide advantages, such as a reduction in flickering associated with video data.
