Abstract:
A video coder determines a coding unit (CU) is partitioned into transform units (TUs) of the CU based on a tree structure. As part of determining the CU is partitioned into the TUs of the CU based on the tree structure, the video coder determines that a node in the tree structure has exactly two child nodes in the tree structure. A root node of the tree structure corresponds to a coding block of the CU, each respective non-root node of the tree structure corresponds to a respective block that is a partition of a block that corresponds to a parent node of the respective non-root node, and leaf nodes of the tree structure correspond to the TUs of the CU.
Abstract:
An example device for decoding video data includes a memory configured to store video data and one or more processors implemented using digital logic circuitry, the processors configured to determine a context model for entropy decoding a value for a sign of a transform coefficient of a block of the video data based on one or more sign values of neighboring transform coefficients and entropy decode the value for the sign of the transform coefficient using the context model.
Abstract:
A video coder can be configured to perform texture first coding for a first texture view, a first depth view, a second texture view, and a second depth view; for a macroblock of the second texture view, locate a depth block of the first depth view that corresponds to the macroblock; based on at least one depth value of the depth block, derive a disparity vector for the macroblock; code a first sub-block of the macroblock based on the derived disparity vector; and, code a second sub-block of the macroblock based on the derived disparity vector.
Abstract:
Techniques are described for determining a disparity vector for a current block based on disparity motion vectors of one or more spatially and temporally neighboring regions to a current block to be predicted. The spatially and temporally neighboring regions include one or a plurality of blocks, and the disparity motion vector represents a single vector in one reference picture list for the plurality of blocks within the spatially or temporally neighboring region. The determined disparity vector could be used to coding tools which utilize the information between different views such as merge mode, advanced motion vector prediction (AMVP) mode, inter-view motion prediction, and inter-view residual prediction.
Abstract:
In an example, a method of processing video data includes determining a candidate motion vector for deriving motion information of a current block of video data, where the motion information indicates motion of the current block relative to reference video data. The method also includes determining a derived motion vector for the current block based on the determined candidate motion vector, where determining the derived motion vector comprises performing a motion search for a first set of reference data that corresponds to a second set of reference data outside of the current block.
Abstract:
Example techniques are described to determine transforms to be used during video encoding and video decoding. A video encoder and a video decoder may select transform subsets that each identify one or more candidate transforms. The video encoder and the video decoder may determine transforms from the selected transform subsets.
Abstract:
In one example, a device for coding video data includes a memory configured to store video data and a video coder configured to form, for a current block of the video data, a merge candidate list including a plurality of merge candidates, the plurality of merge candidates including four spatial neighboring candidates from four neighboring blocks to the current block and, immediately following the four spatial neighboring candidates, an advanced temporal motion vector prediction (ATMVP) candidate, code an index into the merge candidate list that identifies a merge candidate of the plurality of merge candidates in the merge candidate list, and code the current block of video data using motion information of the identified merge candidate.
Abstract:
In an example, a method of coding video data may include selecting, as part of an entropy coding process, a context for a syntax element associated with a current coding unit (CU) based on information relating to CU depth of one or more neighboring CUs relative to the current CU. The syntax element may represent whether the current CU is split into sub-CUs. The method may include entropy coding the syntax element based on the selected context.
Abstract:
Techniques are described where if an inter-view predicted motion vector candidate (IPMVC) and an inter-view disparity motion vector candidate (IDMVC) are derived based on a shifted disparity vector, where the amount by which the disparity vector is shifted for the IPMVC and IDMVC is different. The techniques also prioritize the inclusion of the IPMVC over the IDMVC in a candidate list, and prune the IPMVC and the IDMVC if there is a duplicated IPMVC or IDMVC in the candidate list.
Abstract:
In an example, a method of coding multi-layer video data includes determining, for a first block of video data at a first temporal location, whether one or more reference picture lists for coding the first block contain at least one reference picture at a second, different temporal location. The method also includes coding the first block of video data relative to at least one reference block of video data of a reference picture in the one or more reference picture lists, where coding includes disabling an inter-view residual prediction process when the one or more reference picture lists do not include at least one reference picture at the second temporal location.
