Adaptive Color-Space Transform for HEVC Screen Content Coding

摘要

This paper presents an in-loop adaptive color-space transform for the HEVC Screen Content Coding extension. In the proposed method, the prediction residual is adaptively converted into a different color space to reduce the cross-component redundancy. After the ACT, the signal is coded following the existing HEVC framework. To keep the complexity as low as possible, fixed color-space transforms that are easily implemented with shift and add operations are utilized. Significant coding gains are achieved by this method in the current HEVC Screen Content Coding reference software with no increase of decoding runtime. The proposed method has been adopted to the HEVC Screen Content Coding extension.
