This disclosure describes aspects of advanced video coding technologies and is particular related to cross-component sample offset (CCSO) filtering of reconstructed samples. For example, a quantizer for quantizing sample deltas in order to apply a CCSO filter may be constructed as an asymmetric quantizer with respect to zero sample delta. Either a symmetric or an asymmetric quantizer may be selected for processing sample deltas prior to applying a CCSO filter. An asymmetric quantizer may relate to a corresponding symmetric quantizer by a non-zero offset. Signaling of a selection of an asymmetric quantizer may be provided separately from or dependent on a signaling of a symmetric quantizer.

Cross component sample offset filtering with asymmetric quantizer

This disclosure relates generally to video coding and particularly to methods and systems for deriving context adaptive interpolation filter used for generating prediction samples in inter prediction involving a fractional motion vector or block vector. For example, an encoder and a decoder may derive interpolation filters adaptively using reconstructed samples. The reconstructed samples may belong to templates near a current block and a reference block related by the motion vector or block vector. The derivation of the adaptive interpolation filters may be based on minimizing distortions between interpolated templates associated with the reference block and the templates associated with the current block.

Context adaptive interpolation filter

This disclosure relates generally to video coding/decoding and particularly for a transform dictionary. A method includes receiving the coded video bitstream; determining, based on the coded video bitstream, a transform pile for the current block, the transform pile being one transform pile in a transform dictionary, the transform dictionary comprising a plurality of transform piles, and the transform pile comprising a plurality of transform sets; determining a transform set in the transform pile; determining a transform kernel in the transform set; performing an inverse transform for the current block based on the transform kernel for obtaining a residual block for the current block; and reconstructing the current block based on the residual block.
