Video quality enhancement methods are of great significance in reducing the artifacts of decoded videos in the High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC). However, existing methods mainly focus on improving the quality of natural sequences, not for screen content sequences that have drawn more attention than ever due to the demands of remote desktops and online meetings. Different from the natural sequences encoded by HEVC, the screen content sequences are encoded by Screen Content Coding (SCC), an extension tool of HEVC. Therefore, we propose a Mode Information guided CNN (MICNN) to further improve the quality of screen content sequences at the decoder side. To exploit the characteristics of the screen content sequences, we extract the mode information from the bitstream as the input of MICNN. Furthermore, due to the limited number of screen content sequences, we establish a large-scale dataset to train and validate our MICNN. Experimental results show that our proposed MICNN can achieve 3.41% BD-rate saving on average. In addition, our MICNN method consumes acceptable computational time compared with the other video quality enhancement methods. |
