Methods and apparatus are provided for improved chroma encoding and decoding. An apparatus includes an encoder for encoding picture data for at least a block in a picture. Multiple partition types are supported for intra chroma coding of the block. The multiple partition types include a set of chroma partition types and a set of luma partition types. The set of chroma partition types are different than the set of luma partition types.

A video encoder may transform residual data by using a transform selected from a group of transforms. The transform is applied to the residual data to create a two-dimensional array of transform coefficients. A scanning mode is selected to scan the transform coefficients in the two-dimensional array into a one-dimensional array of transform coefficients. The combination of transform and scanning mode may be selected from a subset of combinations that is based on an intra-prediction mode. The scanning mode may also be selected based on the transform used to create the two-dimensional array. The transforms and/or scanning modes used may be signaled to a video decoder.

This disclosure describes intra-smoothing techniques for intra-coding of video data. In one example, a video encoder is configured to determine a plurality of prediction samples for intra-predictive coding of a block to be coded in a video frame, calculate a local statistic for a first prediction sample of the prediction samples, select a filter from a plurality of filters based on the local statistic, and apply the selected filter to the first prediction sample. The video encoder may also be configured to calculate at least one local statistic for each prediction sample of the prediction samples, select a filter from a plurality of different filters based on the at least one local statistic for each prediction sample, and apply each selected filter to the corresponding prediction sample to generate the filtered version of the prediction sample. Embodiments further include video decoders and method of decoding encoded video signals.

Methods and apparatus are provided for adaptive coupled pre-processing and post-processing filters for video encoding and decoding. The apparatus and method encode input data for a picture into a resultant bitstream, wherein said video encoder comprises a pre-filter and a post-filter coupled to the pre-filter, wherein said pre-filter filters the input data for the picture and the post-filter filters in-loop reconstructed data for the picture.

This disclosure describes a bi-predictive merge mode in which a bi-predictive video block inherits motion information from two different neighboring blocks, wherein the two different neighboring blocks were each encoded in a uni-predictive mode. Bi-predictive coding may improve the ability to achieve compression in video coding. The described bi-predictive merge mode may increase the number of bi-predictive candidates that can be used in the context of merge mode coding by allowing two separate uni-predicted neighbors to be used to define bi-predictive motion information for a video block.

There are provided methods and apparatus for reduced complexity template matching prediction for video encoding and decoding. The encoding method encodes at least an image block in a picture using template matching prediction, wherein the template matching prediction is selectably constrained using one or more constraining criterion that reduces a complexity of performing the template matching prediction.

A method for encoding transform coefficients in a video encoding process includes dividing a block of transform coefficients into a plurality of zones, determining a scan order for each of the plurality of zones, and performing a scan on each of the transform coefficients in each of the plurality of zones according to their respective determined scan order. In another example, a method for decoding transform coefficients in a video encoding process includes receiving a one-dimensional array of transform coefficients, determining a scan order for each of a plurality of sections of the one-dimensional array, wherein each section of the one-dimensional array corresponds to one of a plurality of zones defining a block of transform coefficients, and performing a scan on each of the transform coefficients in each of the section of the one dimensional array of zones according to their respective determined scan order.
摘要:
This disclosure describes video coding techniques applicable to a bi-predictive inter mode that uses adaptive motion vector prediction (AMVP). In particular, this disclosure describes techniques for encoding or decoding video data in which AMVP is used to code a first motion vector and a second motion vector associated with a current video block that is coded in the bi-predictive inter mode. More specifically, this disclosure describes techniques in which one motion vector of a bi-predictive video block can be used to define a candidate motion vector predictor (MVP) for predicting another motion vector of the bi-predictive video block. In many examples, a scaled version of the first motion vector of the bi-predictive video block is used as the MVP for the second motion vector of the bi-predictive video block. By defining an additional MVP candidate for the second motion vector of a bi-predictive video block, improved compression may be achieved.
摘要:
A unified candidate block set for both adaptive motion vector prediction (AMVP) mode and merge mode for use in inter-prediction is proposed. In general, the same candidate block set is used regardless of which motion vector prediction mode (e.g., merge mode or AMVP mode) is used. In other examples of this disclosure, one candidate block in a set of candidate blocks is designated as an additional candidate block. The additional candidate block is used if one of the other candidate blocks is unavailable. Also, the disclosure proposes a checking pattern where the left candidate block is checked before the below left candidate block. Also, the above candidate block is checked before the right above candidate block.
摘要:
Methods and apparatus are provided for efficient adaptive filtering for video encoders and decoders. An apparatus includes a video encoder for encoding picture data for at least a portion of a picture using adaptive filtering. The video encoder includes an adaptive filter for performing the adaptive filtering. A final filter coefficient set used for the adaptive filtering is determined by iteratively estimating a plurality of filter coefficient sets and selecting a last estimated one of the plurality of filter coefficient sets as the final filter coefficient set when a last iteration corresponding to the last estimated one of the plurality of filter coefficient sets results in a quality improvement above a threshold value for the portion.
