Abstract
Examples of a low complexity enhancement video coding are described. Encoding and decoding methods are described, as well as corresponding encoders and decoders. The enhancement coding may operate on top of a base layer, which may provide base encoding and decoding. Spatial scaling may be applied across different layers. Only the base layer encodes full video, which may be at a lower resolution. The enhancement coding instead operates on computed sets of residuals. The sets of residuals are computed for a plurality of layers, which may represent different levels of scaling in one or more dimensions. A number of encoding and decoding components or tools are described, which may involve the application of transformations, quantization, entropy encoding and temporal buffering. At an example decoder, an encoded base stream and one or more encoded enhancement streams may be independently decoded and combined to reconstruct an original video.
