| 研究実績の概要 |
This year, I mainly focused on two components in VVC. One is adaptive loop filter which is a new filter adopted in VVC. To reduce the complexity overhead of adaptive loop filter, a hardware-oriented algorithm is developed at first. In detail, filter coefficient is limited and two mapping methods are proposed. After that, the corresponding VLSI architecture is also designed, and it can realize 4K@30fps throughput. Compared with previous work, more than 41% normalized area can be saved. Besides, the proposed coefficient limitation will not influence the compression efficiency in terms of BD-rate.
The other is intra prediction which is an essential component in various VVC coding configurations. To improve the compression efficiency, several new intra coding features have been adopted in VVC. For prediction partition, QTMT is adopted while only QT was used in previous standard HEVC. For prediction mode, the number is as large as 67, while it was only 35 in HEVC. To reduce the number of partitions and modes requiring a complete rate-distortion computation process, histogram of oriented gradient information is used. As a result, compared with original VVC test model, about 69% encoding time can be saved with only 2.96% BD-rate overhead. To illustrate the universality of the proposal, the method is also implemented on VVenC and VVdeC.
Both topics are accepted by peer-reviewed international journals.

理由
Within this year, I published two international journals on the topics of low-complexity VVC. One is about VVC intra prediction algorithm which is published in Journal of Visual Communication and Image Representation (Impact Factor: 2.6). The other is about VVC adaptive loop filter architecture which is published in IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems-II (Impact Factor: 4.4).
In addition to journal papers, I have also published some international conferences on the related topics with VVC.
