ADAPTIVE ROUNDING FOR LOOP FILTERS

Abstract:

Systems, methods, and media are provided for video coding, including loop filtering. One example includes obtaining the video data comprising one or more pictures and determining a sample of the one or more pictures to be filtered using a loop filter. A shift variable associated with the sample is determined, and a rounding value is selected based on the shift variable. A modified sample is generated, the modified sample being generated at least in part by modifying a value of the sample using one or more filter coefficients, one or more clipping values of the loop filter, the rounding value, and the shift variable. The modified sample is then output.
