Abstract
An encoding method for encoding video data by adjusting a quantization parameter, the video data being partitioned into blocks comprising sets of quantized transform coefficients. The method includes, for a set of quantized transform coefficients corresponding to one of the blocks, collecting statistics, wherein the statistics comprise the number of quantized transform coefficients and the sum of the non-rounded quantization value of the quantized transform coefficients in the set. The method also includes deriving a step size based on the statistics, mapping the derived step size to a closest quantization parameter value, and quantizing a next block using the mapped quantization parameter value.
