Color prediction in image coding using Steered Mixture-of-Experts

We propose a novel approach for modeling and coding color in images and video. Luminance is linearly correlated with chrominance locally, as such we can predict color given the luma value. Using the Steered Mixture-of-Experts (SMoE) approach, the image is viewed as a stochastic process over 5 random…
