Abstract:
Disclosed are techniques for coding coefficients of a video block having a non-square shape defined by a width and a height, comprising coding one or more of x- and y-coordinates that indicate a position of a last non-zero coefficient within the block according to an associated scanning order, including coding each coordinate by determining one or more contexts used to code the coordinate based on one of the width and the height that corresponds to the coordinate, and coding the coordinate by performing a context adaptive entropy coding process based on the contexts. Also disclosed are techniques for coding information that identifies positions of non-zero coefficients within the block, including determining one or more contexts used to code the information based on one or more of the width and the height, and coding the information by performing a context adaptive entropy coding process based on the contexts.
Abstract:
In an example, a method of processing video data includes splitting a current block of video data into a plurality of sub-blocks for deriving motion information of the current block, where the motion information indicates motion of the current block relative to reference video data. The method also includes deriving, separately for each respective sub-block of the plurality of sub-blocks, motion information comprising performing a motion search for a first set of reference data that corresponds to a second set of reference data outside of each respective sub-block. The method also includes decoding the plurality of sub-blocks based on the derived motion information and without decoding syntax elements representative of the motion information.
Abstract:
Example techniques related to linear model (LM) prediction decoding or encoding are described. A video decoder or video encoder determines which filter to apply from a set of filters to downsample samples of a luma block and generate a predictive block for a corresponding chroma block based on characteristics of the chroma block.
Abstract:
In an example, a method of processing data includes determining, by a receiver device, an allowable excess delay parameter based on a difference between a time at which received data is received by the receiver device and a time at which the received data is scheduled to be played out, where the allowable excess delay parameter indicates an amount of delay that is supportable by a channel between a sender device and the receiver device. The method also includes determining, by the receiver device, a sender bit rate increase for increasing a bit rate at which data is to be sent from the sender device to the receiver device based on the determined allowable excess delay parameter, and transmitting an indication of the sender bit rate increase to the sender device.
Abstract:
In general, techniques are described for reducing the complexity of mode selection when selecting from multiple, different prediction modes. A video coding device comprising a processor may perform the techniques. The processor may compute approximate costs for a pre-defined set of intra-prediction modes identified in a current set. The current set of intra-prediction modes may include fewer modes than a total number of intra-prediction modes. The processor may compare approximate costs computed for one or more most probable intra-prediction modes to a threshold and replace one or more of the intra-prediction modes of the current set with one or more most probable intra-prediction modes. The processor may perform rate distortion analysis with respect to each intra-prediction mode identified in the current set and perform intra-prediction coding with respect to the current block using a mode of the current set.
Abstract:
In an example, a method of processing data includes transmitting data over a network at a first bit rate, identifying a reduction in a network link rate of the network from a first network link rate to a second network link rate, and in response to identifying the reduction in the network link rate, determining a recovery bit rate at which to transmit the data over the network, where the recovery bit rate is less than the second network link rate. The method also includes determining a buffering duration based on a difference between a time of the identification of the reduction in the network link rate and an estimated actual time of the reduction in the network link rate, and determining a recovery rate duration during which to transmit the data at the recovery bit rate based on the recovery bit rate and the buffering duration.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a video coder for coding video data includes a processor and a memory. The processor selects a filter set from a multiple filter sets for upsampling reference layer video data based at least on a prediction operation mode for enhanced layer video data and upsamples the reference layer video data using the selected filter set. Some of the multiple filter sets have some different filter characteristics from one another, and the upsampled reference layer video data has the same spatial resolution as the enhanced layer video data. The processor further codes the enhanced layer video data based at least on the upsampled reference layer video data and the prediction operation mode. The memory stores the upsampled reference layer video data.
Abstract:
A device for encoding or decoding video data may clip first residual data based on a bit depth of the first residual data. The device may generate second residual data at least in part by applying an inverse Adaptive Color Transform (TACT) to the first residual data. Furthermore, the device may reconstruct, based on the second residual data, a coding block of a coding unit (CU) of the video data.
Abstract:
In one example, a method of coding video data includes coding, from an encoded video bitstream, a syntax element that indicates a number of lines of video data that are in one or more of a plurality of sub-PUs of a current prediction unit (PU) of a current coding unit (CU) of video data. In this example, the method further includes determining, for each respective sub-PU of the plurality of sub-PUs, a respective vector that represents a displacement between the respective sub-PU and a respective predictor block from a plurality of previously decoded blocks of video data. In this example, the method further includes reconstructing each sub-PU of the plurality of sub-PUs based on the respective predictor blocks of video data.
Abstract:
A system and method for encoding and decoding video data. A predicted residual signal of a target color component is determined as a function of one or more linear parameters of a linear model and of a residual signal of a source color component. A residual signal of the target color component is determined as a function of a remaining residual signal of the target color component and of the predicted residual signal of the target color component.
