IEEE 1857.4:2019

Scope
This standard defines a set of tools for efficient video coding and the corresponding decoding procedure, including intra prediction, inter prediction, transform, quantization, and entropy coding.
Purpose
This standard is the new generation of IEEE Std 1857(TM)-2013 (IEEE Standard for Advanced Audio and Video Coding), which provides efficient coding tool sets for compression, decompression, and packaging of the video data that should double the coding efficiency of IEEE Std 1857-2013. The target applications and services include, but are not limited to, Internet video, video surveillance, video conference, digital television broadcasting, user-generated video content, and other video/audio-enabled services and applications such as digital video storage and communication.
Abstract
New IEEE Standard - Active. A set of tools for efficient video coding, including directional intra prediction, variable block size inter prediction, context adaptive binary arithmetic coding, and the two corresponding decoding procedures, is defined in this standard. The target applications and services include, but are not limited to, UHDTV (ultra high definition TV), IP-based video surveillance, Internet video, IP-based video conference, IPTV, user-generated multimedia content, and other video/audio-enabled services and applications such as digital television broadcasting, digital storage media, and communication.
