Summary of WP3/16 Questions Results (reviewed 14 December 2023)

Question 6/16

Question 6/16 met for six sessions during 16-19 October 2023 in a coordinated fashion with a meeting of the JVET, which met during 13-20 October 2023 in Hannover, Germany, in coordination with a meeting of the various MPEG working groups (WGs) and advisory groups (AGs) of ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC29. The Q6/16 meeting was chaired by the Rapporteur Gary Sullivan (Dolby Labs, US), with the assistance of Associate Rapporteurs Yan Ye (Alibaba, China) and Thomas Wiegand (Fraunhofer HHI, Germany). Approximately 70 people attended the two non-joint Q6/16 meeting sessions, and the other four sessions were held jointly with JVET, SC29/WG2 (MPEG Requirements), SC29/WG4 (MPEG Video), SC29/WG7 (3D Graphics and Haptics), and SC29/AG5 (MPEG Visual Quality Assessment). ​

These following Q6/16 goals were successfully achieved:
  • ​To discuss the status of the work of the Joint Video Experts Team (JVET) on maintenance, minor extension, and reference software and conformance testing development for Rec. H.266 Versatile Video Coding (VVC, twin with ISO/IEC 23090-3) and the associated Rec. H.274 Versatile Supplemental Enhancement Information (VSEI, twin with ISO/IEC 23002-7) and studies of potential video coding technology beyond the capabilities of VVC;
  • To discuss the status of the work on the study of the potential need for a new Recommendation on biomedical and other general waveform signal coding in response to a need expressed by DICOM WG 32;
  • To coordinate with relevant other organizations; and
  • To consider maintenance and minor enhancements for the other H.26x, and T.8xx video and image coding Recommendations, Rec. H.273 Coding Independent Code Points (CICP, twin with ISO/IEC 23091-2), and associated non-normative supplements, technical papers, and reference software and conformance testing Recommendations.
Two incoming liaison statements were considered by Q6/16, and a reply was sent to one of these from Q6/16 to JPEG and the other was deferred for JVET to reply to 3GPP SA4. One additional outgoing liaison statement was sent to DICOM WG32 to follow up on a prior reply that had been sent from SG16 in July 2023, and an additional liaison statement was sent to MPEG Audio that was not a reply.

A Call for Evidence on the coding of biomedical waveform data was issued at the meeting and also posted on the SG16 website and on the VCEG archive site.

It was agreed to submit two texts for Consent by WP3/16:
  • ITU-T.86 | ISO/IEC 10918-4 Ed.2 "Information technology - Digital compression and coding of continuous-tone still images: APPn markers" (Rev.)
  • ITU-T.803 (V3) | ISO/IEC 15444-4 Ed.4 "Information technology - JPEG 2000 image coding system: Conformance testing" (Rev.)
It was agreed to start a new work item, following start of DIS in ISO for draft revised common text Recommendation ITU-T T.800 v4 | ISO/IEC 15444-1 Ed.5, "Information technology - JPEG 2000 image coding system: Core coding system".

Question 8/16

Question 8/16 met once in Geneva, 11-13 December 2023 chaired by the Rapporteur, Mr Hideo Imanaka (NICT, Japan), assisted by Associate Rapporteurs Messrs Jiro Nagao (NTT, Japan) and Hoerim Choi (KT, Korea). Q8/16 discussed five contributions and several input liaison statements. The meeting was held in Geneva with remote participation of 19 experts attending. As the result, draft Recommendations H.IIS-FA, H.ILE-AMR and H.ILE-QR (former H.ILE-QM) were updated according to the discussion results of contributions, and no items were proposed to start the approval process. Based on feedback and requests received from SG12, the A.1 justification for existing H.ILE-QM was revised to adjust its scope, and the acronym was changed to H.ILE-QR. No new work items were created, and no existing items were discontinued. The RGM agreed to send a reply outgoing LS to ETSI ISG F5G on immersive live experience (SG16-LS147). The RGM prepared one draft reply LS to SG12 (pending approval of the updated A.1 justification for H.ILE-QR, ex H.ILE-QM), which was dispatched after WP3/16 review as SG16-LS148.

Q8/16 experts will meet next during the SG16 meeting in April 2024. Q8/16 plans to finalize the draft H.IIS-FA at the SG16 meeting in April 2024.
 

Question 12/16

Q12/16 met once online on 11 December 2023 with the main objective to review two texts planned for Consent. Overall, 48 experts attended this meeting and reviewed two contributions addressing texts for Consent. Two texts were submitted for Consent by the WP3/16 meeting: H.626.6 (ex H.VSBD) "Architecture for big data application in video surveillance systems" (New) and F.743.24 (ex F.BVSSI) "Scenarios and requirements for DLT in video surveillance system interworking" (New). There were no new work item proposals at the RGM and it did not prepare any outgoing LSs. The Question plans on meeting next in Xi'an, China, 29-31 January 2024 (plan already pre-approved by SG16 in July 2023) jointly with Q13/16 and Q21/16.
