Abstract: This disclosure relates to video coding and more particularly to techniques for signaling buffering period information for coded video. According to an aspect of an invention, a second syntax element in a buffering period syntax structure is parsed wherein the second syntax element specifies whether coded picture buffer related syntax elements are present for each temporal sublayer in a range of 0 to a value of a first syntax element or whether the coded picture buffer related syntax elements are present for the first syntax element'th temporal sublayer.

Abstract: Wedgelet-based coding for coding blocks of varying size is rendered more efficient by the usage of a variable length coded syntax element having a prefix and a suffix, wherein the size of the suffix is dependent on the prefix and the size of the current coding block. By this measure, it is feasible to efficiently adapt the length of the variable-length coded syntax element which controls the bi-partitioning of the current coding block to the actual needs, namely the size, of the current coding block, and the variability of the bi-partitioning by varying the wedglet separation line, respectively. The greater the current coding block is, the longer the variable-length coded syntax element may be. This length dependency may even be sufficiently effective in terms of coding efficiency so that the variable length coded syntax element may be coded without context-adaptive entropy coding, but directly or using fixed-equal-probability binary entropy coding.

Abstract: Techniques are described for calibrating a coordinate frame of a remote sensing sensor of a perception system of a machine with respect to a coordinate frame of the machine. An application of a mobile device, such as a smartphone, a tablet computing device, or a laptop, or a web service detects a visual fiducial tag and a feature of the machine in an image by using an optical sensor of a digital camera system. The fiducial tag detection provides the coordinate transformation between the mobile device and a housing of the remote sensing sensor, e.g., radar sensor, lidar sensor, sonar sensor, or camera. Detecting a feature of the machine, e.g., a traction component such as a wheel or track, a brake light, a headlight, a turn signal, or a logo, provided constraints for the transformation between the device and machine.

The coded video stream is decoded based on the derived second motion vector.

Abstract: One or more methods, apparatuses, computer-readable storage mediums, and systems for entropy coding vertex information of an edge in a voxelized space of a point cloud are disclosed. Symbols of a neighborhood configuration of a current edge may be determined based on one or more already coded edges. The already coded edges may be selected from a spatial topology of edges. The use of a motion-compensated point cloud for coding centroid residual values may enhance interframe correlation used for determining a context or probability model. This increased correlation may improve the selection of coders, leading to enhanced compression of centroid residual values.
