Description

This patent application consists of a split application of the invention patent application BR 112023020915-3, dated April 12, 2021. FIELD OF TECHNIQUE [001] The embodiments of the present disclosure relate to the field of video coding technology and, in particular, to a coefficient coding method, an encoder, a decoder and a computer storage medium. BACKGROUND [002] Fields related to computer vision have been receiving increasing attention as people demand higher quality video display. In recent years, image processing technology has had successful applications in all spheres of life. In a video image encoding process, on one side of the encoding, the image data to be encoded is transformed and quantized, and then subjected to compression encoding by an entropy encoding unit, and a bitstream generated from the entropy encoding will be transmitted to a decoding side. On the decoding side, the bitstream is analyzed, and then inverse quantization and inverse transformation are performed so that the original input image data can be recovered. [003] Currently, compared to low bit-depth, low-quality, low-bitrate video encoding (referred to as “conventional video”), high bit-depth, high-quality, high-bitrate video encoding (referred to as “triple-high video”) generally requires encoding more and higher coefficients. In this case, using existing related solutions for triple-high video may result in higher overhead and waste, and may even affect encoding speed and throughput. SUMMARY [004] The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a coefficient coding method, an encoder, a decoder, and a computer storage medium, which can improve the throughput and speed of coefficient coding, while improving compression efficiency in high bit depth, high bit rate, high quality or lossless video coding scenarios. [005] The technical solutions of the modalities of the present disclosure can be achieved in the following way. [006] In a first aspect, a coefficient decoding method is provided in revelation modes, which is applied to a decoder and includes the following. A bitstream is analyzed to obtain a video flag. When the video flag indicates that a video satisfies a predefined condition, the bitstream is analyzed to obtain a reverse position flag of the last significant coefficient and coordinate information of a last significant coefficient. When the reverse position flag of the last significant coefficient indicates that a position of the last significant coefficient is reversed for a current block, the position of the last significant coefficient is determined by calculation with the coordinate information of the last significant coefficient. According to a predefined scan order, all coefficients before the position of the last significant coefficient are decoded to determine the coefficients of the current block. [007] In a second aspect, a coefficient encoding method is provided in revelation modes, which is applied to an encoder and includes the following. A video flag and a last significant coefficient position are determined. When the video flag indicates that a video satisfies a predefined condition, a reverse last significant coefficient position flag is determined. The coordinate information of the last significant coefficient is determined according to the position of the last significant coefficient and the reverse last significant coefficient position flag. All coefficients before the last significant coefficient position are encoded according to a predefined scan order, and the bit information obtained by encoding, the video flag, and the last significant coefficient coordinate information are signaled in a bitstream. [008] In a third aspect, an encoder is provided in embodiments of the present disclosure. The encoder includes a first determination unit and an encoding unit. The first determination unit is configured to determine a video flag and a last significant coefficient position and to determine a last significant coefficient position inversion flag when the video flag indicates that a video satisfies a predefined condition. The first determination unit is further configured to determine last significant coefficient coordinate information according to the last significant coefficient position and the last significant coefficient position inversion flag. The encoding unit is configured to encode all coefficients before the last significant coefficient position according to a predefined scan order and the signal bit information obtained by encoding, the video flag, and the last significant coefficient coordinate information into a bitstream. [009] In a fourth aspect, an encoder is provided in embodiments of the present disclosure. The encoder includes a first memory and a first processor. The first memory is configured to store a computer program executable in the first processor. The first processor is configured to execute the method of the second aspect during execution of the computer program. [0010]
