Flexible Tiling Improvements in Video Coding - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18662066 titled 'Flexible Tiling Improvements in Video Coding
The abstract of the patent application describes a video coding mechanism that involves partitioning a picture into first level tiles, with a subset of these tiles further partitioned into second level tiles. These tiles are then assigned into tile groups, ensuring that all tiles in a group containing second level tiles cover a rectangular region of the picture. The encoded tiles are stored in a bitstream for communication to a decoder.

Original Abstract Submitted
A video coding mechanism is disclosed. The mechanism includes partitioning a picture into a plurality of first level tiles. A subset of the first level tiles is partitioned into a plurality of second level tiles. The first level tiles and the second level tiles are assigned into one or more tile groups such that all tiles in an assigned tile group containing the second level tiles are constrained to cover a rectangular region of the picture. The first level tiles and the second level tiles are encoded into a bitstream. The bitstream is stored for communication toward a decoder.
