Fast sample adaptive offset algorithm for 360-degree video coding

作者：

Highlights：

• Fast SAO method for 360-degree video reduces about 73% SAO encoding time on average with negligible loss.

• Frame to CTU level SAO mode decisions have been proposed.

• Evaluated on H.265/HEVC reference software HM 16.14 with 360lib-1.0.
