Abstract:
The disclosure provides a sample adaptive offset (SAO) encoder. The SAO encoder includes a statistics collection (SC) block and a rate distortion optimization (RDO) block coupled to the SC block. The SC block receives a set of deblocked pixels and a set of original pixels. The SC block categorizes each deblocked pixel of the set of deblocked pixels in at least one of a plurality of band and edge categories. The SC block estimates an error in each category as difference between a deblocked pixel of the set of deblocked pixels and corresponding original pixel of the set of original pixels. The RDO block determines a set of candidate offsets associated with each category and selects a candidate offset with a minimum RD cost. The minimum RD cost is used by a SAO type block and a decision block to generate final offsets for the SAO encoder.

Claim (Index 20):
The video encoding system of  claim 16 , wherein the processor configured to execute the instructions to encode the video input data by:\n determining a sign of the estimated error in each category; and modifying a sign of a candidate offset corresponding to the estimated RD cost that is determined to be the minimum RD cost based on the sign of the estimated error of the category containing the candidate offset corresponding to the estimated RD cost that is determined to be the minimum RD cost.
