Adaptation parameter sets (APS) for adaptive loop filter (ALF) parameters

Abstract:

Techniques are described for adaptation parameter sets (APS) for adaptive loop filter (ALF) parameters. One example involves obtaining an APS ID value and an APS type value associated with a NAL unit from a bitstream. A first APS associated with at least a portion of at least one picture is identified, with the first APS being uniquely identified by a combination of the APS type value and the APS identifier value, and the APS identifier value of the first APS is in a range based on the APS type value. The portion of the at least one picture is then reconstructed using an adaptive loop filter with parameters defined by the first APS uniquely identified by the APS type value and the APS identifier value.
