Abstract

A decoder includes memory and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to: generate a first coefficient value by applying a CCALF (cross component adaptive loop filtering) process to a first reconstructed image sample of a luma component; clip the first coefficient value such that the clipped first coefficient value is within a first range from −2 7 to 2 7 −1; generate a second coefficient value by applying an ALF (adaptive loop filtering) process to a second reconstructed image sample of a chroma component; clip the second coefficient value such that the clipped second coefficient value is within a second range different from the first range; generate a third coefficient value by adding the clipped first coefficient value to the clipped second coefficient value; and generate a third reconstructed image sample of the chroma component using the third coefficient value.

circuitry; and

memory coupled to the circuitry,

wherein the circuitry, in operation:

generates a first coefficient value by applying a CCALF (cross component adaptive loop filtering) process to a first reconstructed image sample of a luma component;

clips the first coefficient value such that the clipped first coefficient value is within a first range from −2 7 to 2 7 −1 indicated by a first parameter;

generates a second coefficient value by applying an ALF (adaptive loop filtering) process to a second reconstructed image sample of a chroma component;

clips the second coefficient value such that the clipped second coefficient value is within a second range different from the first range, the second range being indicated by a second parameter;

generates a third coefficient value by adding the clipped first coefficient value to the clipped second coefficient value; and

encodes a third reconstructed image sample of the chroma component using the third coefficient value.

2 . An encoding method comprising:

generating a first coefficient value by applying a CCALF (cross component adaptive loop filtering) process to a first reconstructed image sample of a luma component;

clipping the first coefficient value such that the clipped first coefficient value is within a first range from −2 7 to 2 7 −1 indicated by a first parameter;

generating a second coefficient value by applying an ALF (adaptive loop filtering) process to a second reconstructed image sample of a chroma component;

clipping the second coefficient value such that the clipped second coefficient value is within a second range different from the first range, the second range being indicated by a second parameter;

generating a third coefficient value by adding the clipped first coefficient value to the clipped second coefficient value; and

encoding a third reconstructed image sample of the chroma component using the third coefficient value.
