• Abstract: In-loop filters have attracted increasing attention due to the remarkable noise-reduction capability in the hybrid video coding framework. However, the existing in-loop filters in Versatile Video Coding (VVC) mainly take advantage of the image local similarity. Although some non-local based in-loop filters can make up for this shortcoming, the widely-used unsupervised parameter estimation method by non-local filters limits the performance. In view of this, we propose a deformable Wiener Filter (DWF). It combines the local and non-local characteristics and supervisedly trains the filter coefficients based on the Wiener Filter theory. In the filtering process, local adjacent samples and non-local similar samples are first derived for each sample of interest. Then the to-be-filtered samples are classified into specific groups based on the patch level noise and sample-level characteristics. Samples in each group share the same filter coefficients. After that, the local and non-local reference samples are adaptively fused based on the classification results. Finally, the filtering operation with outlier data constraints is conducted for each to-be-filtered sample. Moreover, the performance of the proposed DWF is analyzed with different reference sample derivation schemes in detail. Simulation results show that the proposed approach achieves 1.16%, 1.92%, and 2.67% bit-rate savings on average compared to the VTM-11.0 for All Intra, Random Access, and Low-Delay B configurations, respectively.

  We propose a new class of filters based on Gaussian PSD Models, which offer several advantages in terms of density approximation and computational efficiency. We show that filtering can be efficiently performed in closed form when transitions and observations are Gaussian PSD Models. Our proposed estimator enjoys strong theoretical guarantees, with estimation error that depends on the quality of the approximation and is adaptive to the regularity of the transition probabilities.
