Abstract | AVS3 is an emerging video coding standard, and screen content coding is a very important feature of AVS3. This paper presents a method of Implicit-Selected Transform Skip (ISTS) to further improve the screen content coding performance. With ISTS, transform skip mode is introduced as an optional substitution to transform-coding on residual signals of blocks with intra-prediction. The indication of whether to apply transform skip is hidden into the Parity of the Number of Non-zero Coefficients (PNNC) of a residual block, instead of being signaled to the decoder. Moreover, the coefficients of an intra-coded block are reordered to make the coefficients more compact. Experimental results show that the proposed method can achieve 12.04%, 8.15% and 10.19% BD-rate savings on average under All Intra (AI), Low Delay (LD) and Random Access (RA) configurations, respectively, with the encoding time reduced by 5% to 8%. ISTS has been adopted into AVS3. |
