It’s well known that various extents of discontinuous artifacts often occur in reconstructed video. Massive in-loop coding algorithms have been presented to reduce artifacts. However, when bitrate is insufficient, in-loop coding tools alone fail to solve the problem properly. Preprocessing can be served as an effective solution to reduce compression distortion at low bitrate. In this paper, we propose a novel re-cursively adaptive perceptual non-local means (RAP-NLM) preprocessing algorithm based on just noticeable distortion (JND) model. By recursively employing both spatial and temporal non-local content perceptual characteristics, RAP-NLM filter could be adapted to reduce perceptual redundancies, which will help alleviate the artifacts. Experimental results show that our adaptive perceptual preprocessing algorithm can effectively improve the perceived quality of reconstruction video frames.
