HISTORY-BASED MOTION VECTOR PREDICTION AND MODE SELECTION FOR GRADUAL DECODING REFRESH - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18246257 titled 'HISTORY-BASED MOTION VECTOR PREDICTION AND MODE SELECTION FOR GRADUAL DECODING REFRESH

Simplified Explanation

- The patent application describes a method, apparatus, and computer program product for managing history-based motion vector prediction (HMVP) processes for Gradual Decoding Refresh (GDR) pictures. - It also discusses efficient implementations of mode selection within a GDR period and tuning of coding tools such as in-loop filters and Luma Mapping with Chroma Scaling (LMCS). - The method involves accessing a current coding unit of a picture and accessing information associated with coding unit references. - The method further involves determining candidate coding unit references based on a comparison of an associated index value to a dirty index. - At least one coding unit is then assigned to a candidate list for selection in a coding process.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method, apparatus, and computer program product provide for management of history-based motion vector prediction (HMVP) processes for Gradual Decoding Refresh (GDR) pictures, as well as efficient implementations of mode selection within a GDR period and tuning of coding tools such as in-loop filters and Luma Mapping with Chroma Scaling (LMCS) such that current coding units within a clean area avoid use of coding information within a dirty area of a picture. In the context of a method, the method accesses a current coding unit of a picture. The method also accesses information associated with coding unit references each associated with a respective inter-coded coding unit. The method also determines at least one candidate coding unit reference based at least upon a comparison of an associated index value to a dirty index, and assigns at least one coding unit to a candidate list for selection in a coding process.
