Filed: 2015-10-20
Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for applying a suitable edge offset.SOLUTION: In a method of applying an edge offset, an edge index of a current sample is generated and an edge offset corresponding to the edge index is applied to the current sample. The edge index is generated using difference values between a current sample and two samples determined by an edge offset type, the two samples being adjacent to the current sample. Accordingly, the difference values between original samples and reconstructed samples are effectively reduced by generating an optimum edge index. The quantity of bits required for reducing the difference values can also be reduced by fixing the sign of offset to a positive value or a negative value.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
