Block Edge Detection based Fast Sample Adaptive Offset Parameter Estimation for HEVC encoder
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we propose a fast sample adaptive offset (SAO) parameter estimation algorithm based on the block-based edge detection in High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) encoder. Instead of the exhaustive search to find the best SAO parameters among all massive combinations, the proposed algorithm decides the best edge offset by analyzing the input block’s edge characteristics in advance. From the experimental results, the proposed algorithm achieves 61.21% time-saving with 1.09% BD-rate increase on average, compared to HEVC reference software HM 16.9.

Adjustment of Offset Value for Reduction of Complexity in HEVC Intra Mode
In this paper, we propose a complexity reduction method of sample adaptive offset (SAO), which is an in-loop filter in high-efficiency video coding (HEVC). In the conventional SAO, an offset value is calculated for each coding tree block (CTB) to minimize the error between the original and reconstructed images. In order to determine the optimal offset value, all offset candidates are examined a...
متن کاملVariance Adaptive Quantization and Adaptive Offset Selection in High Efficiency Video Coding
Video compression uses encoding to reduce the number of bits that are used for representing a video file in order to store and transmit it at a smaller size. A decoder reconstructs the received data into a representation of the original video. Video coding standards determines how the video compression should be conducted and one of the latest standards is High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC). O...
