Abstract
A filtering system for video coders and decoders is disclosed that includes a feature detector having an input for samples reconstructed from coded video data representing a color component of source video, and having an output for data identifying a feature recognized therefrom, an offset calculator having an input for the feature identification data from the feature detector and having an output for a filter offset, and a filter having an input for the filter offset from the offset calculator and an input for the reconstructed samples, and having an output for filtered samples. The filtering system is expected to improve operations of video coder/decoder filtering systems by selecting filtering offsets from analysis of recovered video data in a common color plane as the samples that will be filtered.
