ALEXANDRIA, Va., July 3 -- United States Patent no. 12,348,787, issued on July 1, was assigned to InterDigital VC Holdings Inc. (Wilmington, Del.).
"Methods for simplifying adaptive loop filter in video coding" was invented by Rahul Vanam (San Diego), Yuwen He (San Diego) and Yan Ye (San Diego).
According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "Systems, methods and instrumentalities are disclosed for adaptively selecting an adaptive loop filter (ALF) procedure for a frame based on which temporal layer the frame is in. ALF procedures may vary in computational complexity. One or more frames including the current frame may be in a temporal layer of a coding scheme. The decoder may determine the current frame's tempo...
