Merging filters for multiple classes of blocks for video coding

Abstract:

In one example, a device includes a memory configured to store video data, and one or more processing units implemented in circuitry configured to construct a plurality of filters for classes of blocks of a current picture of the video data, wherein to construct the plurality of filters, the one or more processing units are configured to generate a plurality of sets of filter coefficients, and for a subset of the plurality of filters, determine respective indexes that identify one of the sets of filter coefficients for the corresponding filter of the subset; decode a current block of the current picture, determine a class for the current block, select a filter of the plurality of filters that corresponds to the class for the current block, and filter at least one pixel of the current block using the selected filter.
