Abstract
In video coding, in-loop filters are applied on reconstructed video frames to enhance their perceptual quality, before storing the frames for output. Conventional in-loop filters are obtained by hand-crafted methods. Learned filters based have been shown to improve upon traditional techniques. However, these solutions are typically significantly more computationally expensive, limiting their potential for practical applications. This work proposes a novel combination of sparsity and structured pruning for complexity reduction of learned in-loop filters. This is done through a three-step training process of magnitude-guided weight pruning, insignificant neuron identification and removal, and fine-tuning.
