According to embodiment(s) of the present document, computational overhead and complexity can be reduced by using a 0th-order exponential Golomb coding scheme (ue(v)) for procedures of parsing syntax elements/information about absolute values of luma/chroma ALF filter coefficients. In addition, coding using ue(v) can be efficiently performed by fixing the range of values of the information about the absolute values of the luma/chroma ALF filter coefficients.

A video decoding method includes: performing entropy decoding on a coding block of a video image frame to obtain a quantization coefficient block of residual data corresponding to the coding block; inversely quantizing the quantization coefficient block to obtain an inverse quantization coefficient matrix; inversely rearranging the inverse quantization coefficient matrix to obtain a processed coefficient matrix, non-zero coefficients in the processed coefficient matrix being concentrated in left, upper and upper left regions of the coefficient matrix; and generating the residual data according to the processed coefficient matrix.

Described is picture segmentation through columns and slices in video encoding and decoding. A video picture is divided into a plurality of columns, each column covering only a part of the video picture in a horizontal dimension. All coded tree blocks (“CTBs”) belonging to a slice may belong to one or more columns. The columns may be used to break the same or different prediction or in-loop filtering mechanisms of the video coding, and the CTB scan order used for encoding and/or decoding may be local to a column. Column widths may be indicated in a parameter set and/or may be adjusted at the slice level. At the decoder, column width may be parsed from the bitstream, and slice decoding may occur in one or more columns.

An example video codec includes memory configured to store the video data and one or more processors implemented in circuitry and communicatively coupled to the memory. The one or more processors are configured to determine that a current mode of coding a current block of the video data is a single tree partitioning mode. Based on the current mode being the single tree partitioning mode, the one or more processors are configured to refrain from determining whether there is a non-DC coefficient for a chroma component of a transform unit (TU) for the current block and refrain from coding a low-frequency non-separable transformation (LFNST) index in response to the refraining of the determination of whether there is the non-DC coefficient. The one or more processors are configured to code the current block in the single partitioning mode with LFNST disabled.
