Abstract: Aspects of the present invention are related to systems and methods for compressing display non-uniformity correction data and for using compressed display non-uniformity correction data. A correction image may be compressed by fitting a data model to the correction image data and encoding the model parameter values. A correction image may be decomposed into two images: an image containing the vertically and horizontally aligned structures of the correction image and a smoothly varying image. The smoothly varying image may be compressed by fitting a data model to the smoothly varying image data. Multiple correction images may be compressed by determining eigenvectors which describe the distribution of the multiple correction images. Projection coefficients may be determined by projecting each correction image the determined eigenvectors, and an eigen-image associated with an eigenvector may be compressed. Correction data for a display may be reconstructed from parameter values stored on a display system.

Abstract: A video coding server may code a common video sequence into a plurality of coded data streams, each coded data stream representing the video sequence coded using coding parameters tailored for a respective transmission bit rate.

During download and decode, the chunks may be decoded efficiently even when switching among streams because the first frame in each chunk is a synchronization frame.

Abstract: Video encoders often produce banding artifacts on areas with smooth gradients and low levels of detail/noise. In this disclosure, a video encoding system identifies the banded areas and adjusts coding parameters accordingly. The video coder may include a pre-coding banding detector and a post-coding banding detector. The pre-coding detector may identify regions in the input picture with smooth gradients that are likely to have banding artifacts after encoding. The post-coding detector may identify regions in the reconstructed picture with visible banding. Usage of pre-coding detector and/or post-coding detector depends on how an encoder operates. In a single-pass encoding or during the first pass of a multi-pass encoding, the pre-coding detection maps are used. During picture re-encoding or during later passes of a multi-pass encoding, the post-coding detector maps are used.

Abstract: Methods and systems provide an adaptive quantization parameter (QP) modulation scheme for video coding and compression that is sensitive to user visual perception. In an embodiment, the method includes detecting an eye sensitive region, where a region is considered sensitive based on a noticeability of a visual effect. The method includes estimating encoding parameters for image content in the detected eye sensitive region. The method further includes encoding the detected eye sensitive region with the estimated encoding parameters. The estimating the encoding parameters may be based on, among other things, a variance, a motion vector, a DC value, an edge value, and external information such as a user command or screen content. The encoding may include storing an average or maximum sum of square differences (SSD) value for a detected eye sensitive area and adjusting a QP value based on a comparison of the SSD value to generated threshold values.

Abstract: Video coding systems and methods protect against banding artifacts in decoded image content. According to the method, a video coder may identify, from content of pixel blocks of a frame of video data, which pixel blocks are likely to exhibit banding artifacts from the video coding/decoding processes. The video coder may assemble regions of the frame that are likely to exhibit banding artifacts based on the identified pixel blocks' locations with respect to each other. The video coder may apply anti-banding processing to pixel blocks within one or more of the identified regions and, thereafter, may code the processed frame by a compression operation.

Abstract: Improved techniques of implementing range lock involve granting a sleeping thread access to an address range when no conflicts exist with earlier pending requests as well as with already granted requests. Along these lines, a current child thread that has a conflict with a parent thread that currently holds a range lock on a range of bytes during a read/write operation will be awoken from waiting state when the parent thread has completed its access and releases its lock. In response, the processor compares the range to which the current child thread request access with the ranges to which other sleeping threads request access. However, the comparisons are only performed in connection with (i) requests that arrived prior to the current child thread and (ii) other granted requests.
