Patent number: 12155871Abstract: A better compromise between encoding complexity and achievable rate distortion ratio, and/or to achieve a better rate distortion ratio is achieved by using multitree sub-divisioning not only in order to subdivide a continuous area, namely the sample array, into leaf regions, but using the intermediate regions also to share coding parameters among the corresponding collocated leaf blocks. By this measure, coding procedures performed in tiles—leaf regions—locally, may be associated with coding parameters individually without having to, however, explicitly transmit the whole coding parameters for each leaf region separately. Rather, similarities may effectively exploited by using the multitree subdivision.Type: GrantFiled: January 14, 2022Date of Patent: November 26, 2024Assignee: GE Video Compression, LLCInventors: Philipp Helle, Detlev Marpe, Simon Oudin, Thomas Wiegand
