IN-LOOP RESHAPING ADAPTIVE RESHAPER DIRECTION

摘要

A method and apparatus for performing a forward mapping function or its inverse is implemented through information conveyed in a bitstream to perform mapping. The information can be implemented in a uniform or non-uniform lookup table. A decoder can receive the information and derive the inverse function to be used. In one embodiment, a decoder receives information representative of an inverse mapping function and uses the information to implement an inverse mapping lookup table for intra coded picture portions and can derive a forward mapping lookup table to be used with an inverse mapping lookup table for inter coded picture portions.
