Abstract
Methods and apparatus are provided for sampling-based super resolution video encoding and decoding. The encoding method receives high resolution pictures and generates low resolution pictures and metadata there from, the metadata for guiding post-decoding post-processing of the low resolution pictures and the metadata; and then encodes the low resolution pictures and the metadata using at least one encoder. The corresponding decoding method receives a bitstream and decodes low resolution pictures and metadata there from using a decoder; and then reconstructs high resolution pictures respectively corresponding to the low resolution pictures using the low resolution pictures and the metadata.
