  • Publication number: 20200349685
    Abstract: The present embodiments relate to a method and apparatus comprising: —deriving chroma components (I) of a third image by correcting chroma components (II) of a second image according to a luma component of said second image and a reconstructed component obtained by applying a mapping function to said luma component (III) of said second image, said chroma components (II) of the second image being obtained by applying a conversion matrix to components (IV) of a first image; and —adapting coefficients of the conversion matrix which are relative to a chroma component of said third image independently of coefficients of the conversion matrix which are relative to another chroma component of said third image to ensure that there is no clipping on chroma components of the third image.

  • Patent number: 10805506
    Abstract: Color mapping information can be used to transform one color to another color. The present embodiments provide a solution for representing the color mapping information using a successive application of multiple color mapping functions. Parameters for the multiple color mapping functions can be encoded into a bitstream. In one embodiment, color mapping functions are consecutively applied on their own domains of definition only. In another embodiment, the first color mapping (CRI1) is applied on its domain of definition only, but the second color mapping is applied only on samples that have been previously color mapped by CRI1 and which are also inside the domain of definition of the second color mapping function. At the decode side, the multiple color mapping functions can be reconstructed and successively applied to a decoded picture to generate another picture.

  • Publication number: 20200267403
    Abstract: Significance flags in advanced video compression systems are coded using contexts adaptive to the last N significance flags coded taken in a scanning order. One embodiment uses the last N significance flags in scanning order as a predictor to determine which of a plurality of sets of significance flag contexts to use for coding subsequent significance flags. A second embodiment uses the last N significance flags in scanning order as a predictor in order to modulate the probability value associated with significance flag contexts that are used to code significance flags for future coding.

  • Patent number: 10600163
    Abstract: A method and device for reconstructing image data is provided that is representative of an original image data from a decoded image data and parameters obtained from a bitstream, the parameters having been processed from said original image data. The method provides a desaturating of a luma component, an inverse-mapping of desaturated luma component and a correction of chroma components. These operations are being modulated according to the value of a single modulation factor mod representative of a peak luminance of a presentation display on which the reconstructed image is intended to be displayed, a peak luminance of a particular range image and a peak luminance of the original image data or the mastering display used to grade the original image data.

  • Publication number: 20190385506
    Abstract: A method for color processing in view of displaying a video image on a display device is described. The method includes retrieving a spectral power distribution associated with at least one group of light elements of the display device, the group of light elements displaying a color component of the video image to be displayed; computing, in a range of the spectral power distribution, called range of noxiousness, a noxiousness value representative of the noxiousness of the light emitted by the group of light elements of the display device; and comparing the noxiousness value to a bound value of noxiousness. If the noxiousness value is greater than the bound value, the content of the image is modified or the display control parameters of the display device are modified such that the noxiousness value becomes less than the bound value.

  • Patent number: 10356444
    Abstract: To preserve backward compatibility with a non-HDR device or service, an HDR picture may be represented using a modulation value and an SDR picture representative of the HDR picture. The modulation value and the SDR picture can then be encoded into the bitstream. At the receiving side, the modulation value and the SDR picture can be decoded. Based on the modulation value, the SDR picture can be mapped to a decoded HDR picture. For a non-HDR device or service, the modulation value information may be discarded and only the SDR picture is decoded. In particular, the modulation value may be implicitly signaled, using quad-tree representation information, intra coding information, inter partition mode information or motion vector residual information.
