JVET-Q0010 JVET AHG report: Encoding algorithm optimization (AHG10) [A. Duenas, A. Tourapis, S. Ikonin, A. Norkin, R. Sjöberg, J. Le Tanou, J.-M. Thiesse]

This AHG report was discussed Wednesday 8 January 2020 at 1430 (chaired by GJS & JRO).

The document summarizes the activities of the AHG on Encoding algorithm optimizations between the 16th meeting in Geneva, CH (1-11, October 2019) and the 17th meeting in Brussels, BE (7-17, January 2020).

No particular coordinated work was identified in the AHG report, which listed the relevant input contributions as follows:

• JVET-Q0323: Encoder optimization for chroma BDPCM
• JVET-Q0433: Encoder only: On unbalanced luma/chroma gains for dependent quantization
• JVET-Q0447: Encoder estimation of Weighted-Prediction parameters
• JVET-Q0493: Non-CE2: Palette encoder improvements for lossless coding
• JVET-Q0502: Non-CE2: Encoder only approach for CTU row palette predictor initialization
• JVET-Q0503: CE2-related: Encoder improvement for palette mode
• JVET-Q0514: AHG11: Encoder improvements on JCCR with chroma transform skip mode

The AHG recommended that the related input contributions are reviewed and to further continue the study of encoding algorithm optimizations in JVET.
