Abstract
A non-transitory machine-readable medium of an electronic device storing computer-executable instructions for updating a probability estimator value during entropy decoding for a bitstream representing a set of video pictures is provided. The computer-executable instructions, when executed by a processor of the electronic device, update a probability estimator value by (i) performing an initial right bit-shifting operation on the probability estimator value to reduce a length, in bits, of the probability estimator value, (ii) multiplying the right bit-shifted probability estimator value by a range value representing an interval, (iii) performing another right bit-shifting operation on a result of the multiplication generated by multiplying the right bit-shifted probability estimator value by the range value, and (iv) adding a constant value to a result of the other right bit-shifting operation, wherein the probability estimator value is associated with a probability of a bin having a particular value.
