    WO 2013/102418 PCT/CN2012/087755 1 METHOD AND APPARATUS OF LUMA-BASED CHROMA INTRA PREDICTION CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] The present invention claims priority to PCT Patent Application, Serial 5 No. PCT/CN2012/070009, filed January 4, 2012, entitled "Improvements of Luma based Chroma Intra Prediction". The PCT Patent Application is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. TECHNICAL FIELD [0002] The present invention relates to video coding. In particular, the present 10 invention relates to coding techniques associated with chroma intra prediction based on reconstructed luma pixels. BACKGROUND [0003] Motion compensated inter-frame coding has been widely adopted in various coding standards, such as MPEG-1/2/4 and H.261/H.263/H.264/AVC. While 15 motion-compensated inter-frame coding can effectively reduce bitrate for compressed video, intra coding is required to compress the regions with high motion or scene changes. Besides, intra coding is also used to process an initial picture or to periodically insert I-pictures or I-blocks for random access or for alleviation of error propagation. Intra prediction exploits the spatial correlation within a picture or within 20 a picture region. In practice, a picture or a picture region is divided into blocks and the intra prediction is performed on a block basis. Intra prediction for a current block can rely on pixels in neighboring blocks that have been processed. For example, if blocks in a picture or picture region are processed row by row first from left to right and then from top to bottom, neighboring blocks on the top and neighboring blocks on 25 the left of the current block can be used to form intra prediction for pixels in the current block. While any pixels in the processed neighboring blocks can be used for WO 2013/102418 PCT/CN2012/087755 2 intra predictor of pixels in the current block, very often only pixels of the neighboring blocks that are adjacent to the current block boundaries on the top and on the left are used. [0004] The intra predictor is usually designed to exploit spatial features in the 5 picture such as smooth area (DC mode), vertical line or edge, horizontal line or edge and diagonal line or edge. Furthermore, spatial correlation often exists between the luminance (luma) and chrominance (chroma) components. Therefore, reconstructed luma pixels can be used to derive the intra chroma prediction. In recent development of High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC), a chroma intra prediction method based on 10 co-located reconstructed luma blocks has been disclosed. The type of chroma intra prediction is termed as LMprediction. The main concept is to use the reconstructed luma pixels to generate the predictors of corresponding chroma pixels. Fig. 1 illustrates the prediction procedure. First, the neighboring reconstructed pixels of a co-located luma block in Fig. 1A and the neighboring reconstructed pixels of a 15 chroma block in Fig. 1B are used to derive the correlation parameters between the blocks. Then, the predicted pixels of the chroma block are generated using the parameters and the reconstructed pixels of the luma block. In the parameters derivation, the first above reconstructed pixel row and the second left reconstructed pixel column of the current luma block are used. The specific row and column of the 20 luma block are used in order to match the 4:2:0 sampling format of the chroma components. [0005] According to the LM prediction mode, the chroma values are predicted from reconstructed luma values of a co-located block. The chroma components may have lower spatial resolution than the luma component. In order to use the luma 25 signal for chroma intra prediction, the resolution of the luma signal may have to be reduced to match with that of the chroma components. For example, for the 4:2:0 sampling format, the U and V components only have half of the number of samples in vertical and horizontal directions as the luma component. Therefore, 2:1 resolution reduction in vertical and horizontal directions has to be 30 applied to the reconstructed luma samples. The resolution reduction can be achieved by down-sampling process or sub-sampling process. [0006] The down-sampling process in this disclosure refers to signal decimation by applying proper low-pass filtering to reduce possible signal aliasing before reducing resolution (also called decimation in the art). On the other hand, sub- WO 2013/102418 PCT/CN2012/087755 3 sampling process performs direct decimation without prior filtering. Both the down sampling process and the sub-sampling process can reduce sampling resolution. While the sub-sampling processing may cause signal aliasing, the sub-sampling processing is used in some signal processing systems due to its simplicity. For 5 chroma intra prediction according to the LM mode, the sub-sampling process is used in horizontal direction and the down-sampling process is used in vertical direction. [0007] In the current HEVC system, the parameter derivation has always assumed the underlying chroma component uses the 4:2:0 sampling format. It is desirable to develop flexible LM-based chroma intra prediction that can adaptively accommodate 10 other chroma sampling formats. SUMMARY [0008] A method and apparatus for luma-based chroma intra prediction for a current chroma block are disclosed. The chroma intra predictor is derived from reconstructed luma pixels of a current luma block according to the chroma sampling 15 format. In one embodiment according to the present invention, the method for chroma intra prediction receives neighboring reconstructed luma pixels and current reconstructed luma pixels of the current luma block from storage or a processor. The neighboring reconstructed luma pixels comprise a first group of the reconstructed luma pixels above a top boundary of the current luma block and a second group of the 20 reconstructed luma pixels to a left boundary of the current luma block. In an embodiment, the first group of the reconstructed luma pixels correspond to a first top pixel row from the top boundary of the current luma block and the second group of the reconstructed luma pixels correspond to a first left pixel column from the left boundary of the current luma block for any chroma sampling format. The chroma 25 sampling format is then determined, the encoder is aware of the chroma sampling format and in a decoder, the chroma sampling format may be determined from the received video bitstream. The chroma intra prediction for a corresponding chroma block is then derived based on the neighboring reconstructed luma pixels and the current reconstructed luma pixels of the current luma block, wherein said deriving 30 chroma intra prediction is according to the chroma sampling format. The chroma intra prediction is then provided for encoding or decoding of chroma pixels in the WO 2013/102418 PCT/CN2012/087755 4 corresponding chroma. [0009] Depending on the chroma sampling format, either sub-sampling, down sampling or no processing is applied to the reconstructed luma pixels in horizontal or vertical direction. The information associated with the chroma sampling format can 5 be incorporated in the sequence parameter set (SPS), the picture parameter set (PPS), the adaptation parameter set (APS) or the slice header of a video bitstream. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS [0010] Fig. 1A illustrates an example of derivation of chroma intra prediction 10 based on reconstructed luma pixels according to HM-5.0.

[0014] Fig. 4 illustrates an example of 4:4:4 sampling format, where a sampling pattern of the chroma samples with reference to the luma samples is shown. [0015] Fig. 5 illustrates an exemplary flowchart for luma-based chroma intra 20 prediction incorporating an embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION [0016] As mentioned before, the existing LM mode is not flexible and the method is not efficient when the chroma pixels do not correspond to the 4:2:0 sampling format. Accordingly, embodiments based on the present invention provide flexible 25 LM-based chroma intra prediction that supports different chroma sampling formats adaptively. [0017] In existing HEVC, several different sampling formats of chroma components are supported. For example, the sampling format may be selected from 4:2:0, 4:2:2 and 4:4:4. In some chroma sampling formats, the number of chroma 30 samples is half of the number of luma samples in horizontal or both horizontal and WO 2013/102418 PCT/CN2012/087755 5 vertical directions. In this case, the sample locations of the chroma pixels may be aligned with or offset from the sample locations of the luma samples. In other words, there may be phase differences between corresponding luma pixels and chroma pixels. Fig. 2 illustrates an example of phase relationship for the 4:2:0 sampling 5 format, where the chroma samples are half of the luma samples in both horizontal and vertical directions. In the horizontal direction, the chroma samples are aligned with the luma samples. In other words, the chroma samples are always co-located with the luma samples. Therefore, the chroma samples have the same phase as the luma samples in horizontal direction. However, in the vertical direction, the chroma 10 samples are in the middle of two neighboring luma samples. In other words, the chroma samples are offset from the luma samples by half vertical luma pixel distance. Therefore, the chroma samples are 90' offset from the luma samples in horizontal direction (phase for each pair of luma samples correspond to 360'). Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 illustrate the 4:2:2 and 4:4:4 sampling formats. As shown in Fig. 3, the 4:2:2 15 sampling format results in the same number of chroma samples as the luma samples in vertical direction while the number of chroma samples is half of the number of luma samples in horizontal direction. Furthermore, the chroma samples are aligned with the luma samples in both horizontal and vertical directions. As shown in Fig. 4, the 4:4:4 sampling format results in the same number of chroma samples as the luma 20 samples in horizontal and vertical directions. Furthermore, the chroma samples are co-located with the luma samples. Luma-based chroma intra prediction mode (i.e., chroma LM mode for chroma intra prediction) utilizes the correlation between the luma pixels and the chroma pixels. Therefore, phase alignment of luma pixels and chroma pixels is important to the effectiveness of chroma LM mode. 25 [0018] For the 4:2:0 sampling format being used for HEVC, the luma pixels are down-sampled using a filter corresponding to (1/4, 1/2, 1/4) in horizontal direction, where the locations of the sub-sampled luma pixels correspond to locations of the chroma pixels. On the other hand, the luma pixels are down-sampled using a filter corresponding to (1/2, 1/2) in vertical direction to match the number and locations of 30 the chroma pixels. The sample-reduced luma pixels are then used for the prediction process of chroma LM mode. As illustrated in Fig. 1A, the first above pixel row and the second left pixel column are used for deriving the correlation parameters. However, for other sampling formats, such as 4:2:2 and 4:4:4, the method of choosing WO 2013/102418 PCT/CN2012/087755 6 the sample-reduced luma pixels are not specified in the existing HM-5.0. Embodiments of the present invention use adaptive chroma LM mode according to the chroma sample format to better support other sampling formats. [0019] In order to allow adaptive chroma LM mode, a syntax element indicating 5 the chroma sampling format, named "chromaformatide" is added in sequence parameter set (SPS) or other parameter sets such as picture parameter set (PPS), adaptation parameter set (APS) and slice header according to an embodiment of the present invention. An example of the definition for this syntax element is shown in Table 1. Table 2 shows an example of syntax design incorporating the 10 chromaformatide syntax element in SPS, where ue(v)/u(2)/u(3) represents the coding method. In this example, chroma sampling format can be coded with a variable length coding method, such as unsigned Exp-Golomb code (i.e., ue(v)) or a fixed length coding method, such as 2-bit or 3-bit coding (i.e., u(2) or u(3)). Table 1. chromaformat ide Chroma Format 0 monochrome 1 4:2:0 2 4:2:2 3 4:4:4 15 Table 2. seqparameterset rbsp() { Descriptor profile ide u(8) reserved zero_8bits /* equal to 0 */ u(8) levelide u(8) seqparametersetid ue(v) chromaformat ide ue(v)/u(2)/u(3) } [0020] With the chromaformat ide syntax element defined, the coding system can convey the sampling format information in the bitstream by using this syntax element. The adaptive chroma LM mode can then choose the luma pixels for parameter derivation according to the chroma sampling format. For each direction, WO 2013/102418 PCT/CN2012/087755 7 the selection method can be described as follows. 0 If the chroma samples are located in the same phase with the luma samples and the number is half of the number of the luma samples in horizontal or vertical direction, then sub-sampling method is used to generate sample-reduced luma pixels 5 in the corresponding horizontal or vertical direction; 0 If the chroma samples are located in the same phases with luma samples in horizontal or vertical direction, and the number is equal to the number of the luma samples, no down-sampling is required in the corresponding horizontal or vertical direction; and 10 e If the chroma samples are located in the middle of two luma samples in horizontal or vertical direction, a filter corresponding to (1/2, 1/2) is used to down sample the luma samples in the corresponding horizontal or vertical direction. [0021] An example of deriving chroma intra prediction from reconstructed luma samples for various chroma sampling formats are shown below. The derived luma 15 pixels PL'[x,y] at [xy] of the current block coded in the chroma LM mode can be described as follows, where RecL[xy] is the reconstructed luma pixel at [xy]. Format 4:2:0 PL '[x,y] =(RecL[2x 1,2y+1]+2*RecL[2x,2y+1]+RecL[2x+1,2y+1]+2) 2, (1) where x=0,..., nS-1, and y = -1, and 20 PL '[x, y] =(RecL [2x, 2y] + RecL [2x, 2y ±1]) 1, (2) where x=-1,..., nS-1, andy=0,...,nS-1. Format 4:2:2 PL'[x,y]=(RecL[2x 1,2y+1]+2*RecL[2x,2y+1]+RecL[2x1,2y1]2)>2, (3) where x=0,..., nS-1, and y = -1, and 25 PL '[x,y]= RecL[2x,y], where x=-1,..., nS-1, andy = 0,..., 2*nS-1. (4) Format 4:4:4 PL '[x,y]= RecLx[, y],where x=0,..., nS-1, andy = -1, and (5) PL '[x,y]= RecL[xy], where x=-1,..., 2*nS-1, andy = 0,..., 2*nS-1. (6) [0022] The variable nS specifies the prediction size. As described in equations (1) 30 to (4), the first above pixel row and second left pixel column of the current luma block are used when chroma sampling format is 4:2:0 and 4:2:2. Based on equations (5) and (6), the first above pixel row and the first left pixel column of the current luma WO 2013/102418 PCT/CN2012/087755 8 block are used for the 4:4:4 sampling format. For chroma sampling format corresponds to 4:2:0 sampling format, down-sampling is applied to the first top pixel row and down-sampling is applied to the second left pixel column. For chroma sampling format correspond to 4:2:2 sampling format, sub-sampling or down 5 sampling is applied to the first top pixel row and no sub-sampling or down-sampling is applied to the first left pixel column. For chroma sampling format correspond to 4:4:4 sampling format, no sub-sampling or down-sampling is applied to the first top pixel row or the first left pixel column. [0023] In another embodiment, an above pixel line and a left pixel line nearest to 10 the current luma block are used for the parameter derivation process. Accordingly, the first above pixel row and the first left pixel column of the current block are always used regardless of the chroma sampling format. In order to match the numbers of luma samples and chroma samples, corresponding sub-sampling and down-sampling methods according to the chroma sampling format as described previously are used. 15 This would make the parameter derivation process simpler, although the effectiveness of chroma LM mode may be affected. [0024] The luma-based chroma intra prediction method described above can be used in a video encoder as well as a video decoder. Fig. 5 illustrates an exemplary flowchart of an encoder or a decoder incorporating an embodiment of the present 20 invention. Neighboring reconstructed luma pixels and current reconstructed luma pixels of a current luma block are received from storage or a processor as shown in step 510. The neighboring reconstructed luma pixels comprise first group of the reconstructed luma pixels above a top boundary of the current luma block and second group of the reconstructed luma pixels to a left boundary of the current luma block. 25 The reconstructed luma pixels may be retrieved from storage such as a computer memory of buffer (RAM or DRAM). The reconstructed luma pixels may also be received from a processor such as a processing unit or a digital signal processor that reconstructs the luma pixels from residual signals. In a video encoder, the residual signals are generated by the encoder. In a video decoder, the residual signals may be 30 derived from the received bitstream. The chroma sampling format is determined in step 520. The encoder is aware of the chroma sampling format. In a decoder, the chroma sampling format may be determined from the received bitstream. The chroma intra prediction for a corresponding chroma block is then derived based on the neighboring reconstructed luma pixels and the current reconstructed luma pixels of WO 2013/102418 PCT/CN2012/087755 9 the current luma block in step 530, wherein said deriving chroma intra prediction is according to the chroma sampling format. The chroma intra prediction is then provided for encoding or decoding of chroma pixels in the corresponding chroma as shown in step 540. 5 [0025] The flowcharts shown above are intended to illustrate examples of a luma based chroma intra prediction method for a video encoder and a decoder incorporating embodiments of the present invention.
