As the successor of H.265/HEVC, the new versatile video coding standard (H.266/VVC) can provide up to 50% bitrate saving with the same subjective quality, at the cost of increased decoding complexity. To accelerate the application of the new coding standard, a real-time H.266/VVC software decoder that can support various platforms is implemented, where SIMD technologies, parallelism optimization, and the acceleration strategies based on the characteristics of each coding tool are applied. As the mobile devices have become an essential carrier for video services nowadays, the mentioned optimization efforts are not only implemented for the x86 platform, but more importantly utilized to highly optimize the decoding performance on the ARM platform in this work. The experimental results show that when running on the Apple A14 SoC (iPhone 12pro), the average single-thread decoding speed of the present implementation can achieve 53fps (RA and LB) for full HD (1080p) bitstreams generated by VTM-11.0 reference software using 8bit Common Test Conditions (CTC). When multi-threading is enabled, an average of 32 fps (RA) can be achieved when decoding the 4K bitstreams.

Versatile Video Coding (VVC) is the most recent international video coding standard jointly developed by ITU-T and ISO/IEC, which has been finalized in July 2020. VVC allows for significant bit-rate reductions around 50% for the same subjective video
quality compared to its predecessor, High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC). One year after finalization, VVC support in devices and chipsets is still under development, which is aligned with the typical development cycles of new video coding standards. This paper presents open-source software packages that allow building a complete VVC end-to-end toolchain already one year after its finalization. This includes the Fraunhofer HHI VVenC library for fast and efficient VVC encoding as well as HHIs VVdeC library for live decoding. An experimental integration of VVC in the GPAC software tools and FFmpeg media framework allows packaging VVC bitstreams, e.g. encoded with VVenC, in MP4 file format and using DASH for content creation and streaming. The integration of VVdeC allows playback on the receiver. Given these packages, step-by-step tutorials are provided for two possible application scenarios: VVC file encoding plus playback and adaptive streaming with DASH.
Artifact removal and filtering methods are inevitable parts of video coding. On one hand, new codecs and compression standards come with advanced in-loop filters and on the other hand, displays are equipped with high capacity processing units for pos
t-treatment of decoded videos. This paper proposes a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN)-based post-processing algorithm for intra and inter frames of Versatile Video Coding (VVC) coded streams. Depending on the frame type, this method benefits from normative prediction signal by feeding it as an additional input along with reconstructed signal and a Quantization Parameter (QP)-map to the CNN. Moreover, an optional Model Selection (MS) strategy is adopted to pick the best trained model among available ones at the encoder side and signal it to the decoder side. This MS strategy is applicable at both frame level and block level. The experiments under the Random Access (RA) configuration of the VVC Test Model (VTM-10.0) show that the proposed prediction-aware algorithm can bring an additional BD-BR gain of -1.3% compared to the method without the prediction information. Furthermore, the proposed MS scheme brings -0.5% more BD-BR gain on top of the prediction-aware method.
Compressed bitmap indexes are used in systems such as Git or Oracle to accelerate queries. They represent sets and often support operations such as unions, intersections, differences, and symmetric differences. Several important systems such as Elast
icsearch, Apache Spark, Netflixs Atlas, LinkedIns Pinot, Metamarkets Druid, Pilosa, Apache Hive, Apache Tez, Microsoft Visual Studio Team Services and Apache Kylin rely on a specific type of compressed bitmap index called Roaring. We present an optimized software library written in C implementing Roaring bitmaps: CRoaring. It benefits from several algorithms designed for the single-instruction-multiple-data (SIMD) instructions available on commodity processors. In particular, we present vectorized algorithms to compute the intersection, union, difference and symmetric difference between arrays. We benchmark the library against a wide range of competitive alternatives, identifying weaknesses and strengths in our software. Our work is available under a liberal open-source license.
This paper presents a framework for Convolutional Neural Network (CNN)-based quality enhancement task, by taking advantage of coding information in the compressed video signal. The motivation is that normative decisions made by the encoder can signif
icantly impact the type and strength of artifacts in the decoded images. In this paper, the main focus has been put on decisions defining the prediction signal in intra and inter frames. This information has been used in the training phase as well as input to help the process of learning artifacts that are specific to each coding type. Furthermore, to retain a low memory requirement for the proposed method, one model is used for all Quantization Parameters (QPs) with a QP-map, which is also shared between luma and chroma components. In addition to the Post Processing (PP) approach, the In-Loop Filtering (ILF) codec integration has also been considered, where the characteristics of the Group of Pictures (GoP) are taken into account to boost the performance. The proposed CNN-based Quality Enhancement(QE) framework has been implemented on top of the VVC Test Model (VTM-10). Experiments show that the prediction-aware aspect of the proposed method improves the coding efficiency gain of the default CNN-based QE method by 1.52%, in terms of BD-BR, at the same network complexity compared to the default CNN-based QE filter.
Rate-distortion (RD) theory is at the heart of lossy data compression. Here we aim to model the generalized RD (GRD) trade-off between the visual quality of a compressed video and its encoding profiles (e.g., bitrate and spatial resolution). We first
define the theoretical functional space $mathcal{W}$ of the GRD function by analyzing its mathematical properties.We show that $mathcal{W}$ is a convex set in a Hilbert space, inspiring a computational model of the GRD function, and a method of estimating model parameters from sparse measurements. To demonstrate the feasibility of our idea, we collect a large-scale database of real-world GRD functions, which turn out to live in a low-dimensional subspace of $mathcal{W}$. Combining the GRD reconstruction framework and the learned low-dimensional space, we create a low-parameter eigen GRD method to accurately estimate the GRD function of a source video content from only a few queries. Experimental results on the database show that the learned GRD method significantly outperforms state-of-the-art empirical RD estimation methods both in accuracy and efficiency. Last, we demonstrate the promise of the proposed model in video codec comparison.
