Acceleration of bypass binary symbol processing in video coding

Abstract:

A method for encoding a video sequence in a video encoder to generate a compressed video bit stream is provided that includes binarizing a plurality of syntax elements, wherein each binarized syntax element comprises a string of one or more binary symbols (bins), wherein a bin is one selected from a context-coded bin and bypass bin, encoding the context-coded bins of the binarized syntax elements using binary arithmetic encoding, and adding the bypass bins of the binarized syntax elements to the compressed video bit stream with no encoding.
