Compression of bitstream indexes for parallel entropy coding

Abstract:

Techniques are described herein for video coding, including compression of bitstream indexes for neural network based video coding and/or parallel entropy coding. One example includes obtaining a sequence of video data, identifying positions in the sequence of video data associated with entry points for individually entropy codable parcels of a parallel entropy codable sequence of video data, and generating the parallel entropy codable sequence of video data. An index is then generated for the parallel entropy codable sequence of video data, the index identifying the individually entropy codable parcels within the parallel entropy codable sequence of video data.
