Abstract:
In video coding, a transform can be selected from multiple transform sets. To efficiently implement multiple transforms, a unified architecture of implementing the Discrete Trigonometric Transforms (DTTs) or flipped DTT can be used. In the proposed unified architecture, the relationships between the transforms are utilized. In particular, all transforms can be implemented based on DCT-II, DCT-IV, a reverse order operation, and a sign changing operation for odd elements. The DCT-II can be implemented at a minimum size, and other sizes for DCT-II can be implemented recursively from the minimum size DCT-II and DCT-IV at various sizes. In one example, the multiple transforms are {DCT-II, DST-II, DCT-III, DST-III, DCT-IV, DST-IV}. The relationships between transforms can also be used to guide the design of additional transforms that can be implemented by the unified architecture.
