Cross-component prediction, which takes advantage of inter-channel correlations, predicts the chroma block with the luma reconstructed block according to the associated linear model. Instead of involving all available reference samples in building the linear model, in this paper, we propose a sub-sampled approach that utilizes at most four neighboring chroma samples and their corresponding down-sampled luma samples, leading to significantly reduced operations in the derivation of model parameters at both encoder and decoder.

In this paper, we focus on computationally modeling of the local texture correlations, in an effort to better explore the coding modes with higher priorities in the rate-distortion optimized intra coding. In particular, strong correlations and continuities of local texture with neighboring blocks have been revealed in our analysis, and empirical justifications provide us inspirations on the joint optimization of rate-distortion-complexity when angular modes become finer to adapt the local textures.

3D-High Efficiency Video Coding (3D-HEVC) is a video compression standard developed for multi-view video plus depth map coding based on the latest HEVC coding standard. We propose an eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) system based fast coding unit (CU) level decision for depth maps, which is used to solve the problem of high coding complexity caused by the addition of depth maps and new coding tools in 3D-HEVC. We explore the application of data mining and machine learning in video coding by using texture feature attributes that are highly correlated with CU size.

The just noticeable distortion (JND) has been widely applied in perceptual image/video compression. Yet, the existing JND estimation models are not accurate enough, which results in the degradation of perceptual quality. In this paper, we propose a JND compensation based perceptual video coding (PVC) scheme to compress videos with better perceptual quality. Specifically, a block-level JND estimation model is proposed at first, which leads to this model can be employed in variable block-sizes based video coding directly.

With the rapid development of Internet, short videos draw more and more attentions nowa- days. Due to the small scale of short videos, image-level coding scheme can be applied to improve compression efficiency. In this paper, we propose a densely connected unit based loop filter for short video coding in H.266/VVC. In the proposed loop filter, the densely connected units are specially designed to extract feature maps, and fully decompose videos. By densely connection between layers, the designed units can reuse feature maps, and re- duce the redundancy of features.

Rate distortion optimization (RDO) is the basis for algorithm optimization in video coding, such as mode decision, rate control and etc. Minimizing the rate distortion coding cost is usually employed to determine the optimal coding parameters such as quantization level, coding mode, and etc. However, rate and distortion calculations for optimal solution decision from massive possible candidates suffer from dramatically high computation complexity.

Compressive sensing is a simultaneously signal acquisition and compression technique for efficiently acquiring and reconstructing a signal from a small number of measurements, which can be obtained by linear projections onto sparse signal. In order to further compress the measurements, many works applied intra prediction-based measurement coding. In this paper, we proposed temporal redundancy reduction in compressive video sensing by using moving detection and inter-coding.
