Abstract:
Systems and methods for low complexity forward transforms using mesh-based calculations are described herein. One aspect of the subject matter described in the disclosure provides a video encoder comprising a memory configured to store video information. The video encoder further comprises a processor in communication with the memory. The processor is configured to decompose a transform into multiple transform stages. The processor is further configured to transform the video information using the multiple stages to determine a transform stage output at each transform stage. The processor is further configured to constrain the transform stage output at each transform stage to a predetermined bit depth. The processor is further configured to perform operations on the constrained transform output of a last stage of the multiple stages, wherein the operations are only available for use with data having the predetermined bit depth.

An apparatus configured to code (e.g., encode or decode) video information includes a memory unit and a processor in communication with the memory unit. The memory unit is configured to store video information associated with a base layer and an enhancement layer, the enhancement layer comprising an enhancement layer (EL) block and the base layer comprising a base layer (BL) block that is co-located with the enhancement layer block.

An apparatus for coding video information according to certain aspects includes a memory unit and a processor in communication with the memory unit. The memory unit stores video information associated with a reference layer. The processor determines a value of a current video unit based on, at least in part, a reconstruction value associated with the reference layer and an adjusted difference prediction value. The adjusted difference prediction value is equal to a difference between a prediction of a current layer and a prediction of the reference layer multiplied by a weighting factor that is different from 1.

The techniques of this disclosure allow for wavefront parallel processing of video data with limited synchronization points. In one example, a method of decoding video data comprises synchronizing decoding of a first plurality of video block rows at a beginning of each video block row in the first plurality of video block rows, decoding the first plurality of video block rows in parallel, wherein decoding does not include any synchronization between any subsequent video block in the first plurality of video block rows, and synchronizing decoding of a second plurality of video block rows at a beginning of each video block row in the second plurality of video block rows.
